The Nordic Model for Dummies: All You Need to Know in 6 Minutes

Head of Communication
20/03/2018

Editor: Jan-Erik Støstad, Secretary General

The Nordic Model for Dummies is based on the SAMAK/FEPS research project NordMod2030, and is an up to date, easy to read presentation of the Nordic social model for foreign readers. It highlights the Nordic model’s “workhorse”, its three basic pillars of Economic Governance, Public Welfare and Organized Labour, and how these in close interplay are able to convert egalitarian values to the Nordics’ unique combination of equality, efficiency, gender equality and trust – at the same time acknowledging the Nordics’ dependence on inputs and influences from all over the world.
