This book compares and contrasts publicly espoused security
concepts in the Nordic region, and explores the notion of societal
security. Outside observers often assume that Nordic countries take
similar approaches to the security and safety of their citizens.
This book challenges that assumption and traces the evolution of
'societal security', and its broadly equivalent concepts, in
Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Finland. The notion of societal
security is deconstructed and analysed in terms of its different
meanings and implications for each country, through both country-
and issue-focused studies. Each chapter traces the evolution of key
security concepts and related practices, allowing for a comparison
of similarities and differences between these four countries. Using
discourses and practices as evidence, this is the first book to
explore how different Nordic nations have conceptualised domestic
security over time. The findings will be valuable to scholars from
across the geographical and theoretical spectrum, while
highlighting how Nordic security discourses and practices may
deviate from traditional assumptions about Nordic values. This book
will be of much interest to students of security studies, Nordic
politics and International Relations. The Open Access version of
