Summary:

North Sea oil, garden suburbs, socialized medicine, ombudsmen, economic diversification, party politics, relations with the US and the USSR--these are some of the exciting and controversial aspects of Scandinavian life in the 1970s that Franklin Scott explores in this revised and enlarged edition of " The United States and Scandinavia" . An observer of Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden for over forty years, Scott shows how the old tradition-oriented communities have transformed themselves into modern change-oriented societies keenly aware of their position in the world.
