Abstract

Volume 2 of The Cambridge History of Scandinavia provides a comprehensive and authoritative account of the Scandinavian countries from the close of the Middle Ages through to the formation of the nation states in the mid-nineteenth century. Beginning in 1520, the opening chapters of the volume discuss the reformation of the Nordic states and the enormous impact this had on the social structures, cultural identities and traditions of individual countries. With contributions from 38 leading historians, the book charts the major developments that unfolded within this crucial period of Scandinavian history. Chapters address topics such as material growth and the centralisation of power in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries as well as the evolution of trade, foreign policy and client states in the eighteenth century. Volume 2 concludes by discussing the new economic and social orders of the nineteenth century in connection with the emergence of the nation states.

Abstract

The Nordic countries enjoy a reputation as consensual, tolerant and peaceful. The mere thought of populist and extremist politics playing a significant role in the Nordic political systems seems far fetched. Yet, in all the four countries studied in this book -- Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden -- anti-establishment parties with an immigration-critical agenda are, or have been, represented in parliament. The Progress Party has been Norway's second biggest party in two successive elections. The Danish People has been able to get key parts of its programme made into public policy, in exchange for parliamentary support for a centre-right minority government. In Finland and Sweden right-wing populism has not yet had the same impact, but support for the True Finns Party and the Sweden Democrats has grown in recent years, and both parties could be on the verge of a political breakthrough. This book provides an analysis of right-wing populism in all four countries.It is argued that the nature of the Nordic political systems can help us to understand the variations in electoral success and political impact of populist right parties, and that these parties are catalysts of political change. This is a unique contribution to a widely studied and fascinating area, which contains important lessons for all concerned.

Abstract

"This book details the development of Scandinavia from the end of the Ice Age, through a series of prehistoric cultures, the Bronze and Iron ages, to the Viking period and late Middle Ages. Recent research suggests a Swedish origin of the Goths, who helped dismember the Roman Empire, and evidence of Swedish participation in the western Viking expeditions"--
