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.

                  In Scandinavian Colonialism and the Rise of Modernity: Small Time Agents in a Global Arena, archaeologists, anthropologists, and historians present case studies that focus on the scope and impact of Scandinavian colonial expansion in the North, Africa, Asia and America as well as within Scandinavia itsself. They discuss early modern thinking and theories made valid and developed in early modern Scandinavia that justified and propagated participation in colonial expansion. The volume demonstrates a broad and comprehensive spectrum of archaeological, anthropological and historical research, which engages with a variation of themes relevant for the understanding of Danish and Swedish colonial history from the early 17th century until today. The aim is to add to the on-going global debates on the context of the rise of the modern society and to revitalize the field of early modern studies in Scandinavia, where methodological nationalism still determines many archaeological and historical studies.                 Through their theoretical commitment, critical outlook and application of postcolonial theories the contributors to this book shed a new light on the processes of establishing and maintaining colonial rule, hybridization and creolization in the sphere of material culture, politics of resistance, and responses to the colonial claims. This volume is a fantastic resource for graduate students and researchers in historical archaeology, Scandinavia, early modern history and anthropology of colonialism.
