OverviewIn international welfare state scholarship and political discourse the Nordic Model has become a standard concept. But how precise is the concept and to what extent do the five Nordic countries fit into this overall pattern? In this book a group of Nordic historians trace the historical origins and developments of welfare in the five Nordic countries. The aim of this book is to modify the standard concept by emphasising both the common features and the variations between them. As a work hypothesis the authors regard 'Norden' as a model with five exceptions. The articles in this book are all written by historians who have worked within the framework of a Nordic research project operating under the title 'The Nordic Welfare-Model - a Historical Reappraisal'.
