New title: THE NORDIC MODEL by Mary Hilson

Mary Hilson: The Nordic Model. Scandinavia since 1945
Reaktion Books Ltd, London 2008

Covering all five Nordic countries: Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden, THE NORDIC MODEL includes chapters on economic development, politics and government, foreign policy and the welfare state, as well as a more general account of the cultural meanings that have accrued to Scandinavia in the twentieth century. The implications of recent developments for the continued coherence of the region are assessed, in particular the European dimension, and the re-emergence of the Baltic Sea as a potential regional
focus.
