| Sommario/riassunto: | This book provides a comprehensive overview of Norway’s foreign policy in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, with a particular focus on the latter. Covering themes such as security and defence, foreign aid, and European integration, the author argues that despite often presenting itself as an idealist country and a ‘peace nation’, Norwegian governments have demonstrated an understanding of power politics and a desire to, above all, promote national self- interests. The author explores the country’s global relations with the US and NATO, the countries of the European Union, and great powers such as Russia and China. By adopting a historical perspective, the book demonstrates how continuity and stability have been fundamental features of contemporary Norwegian foreign policy. The book draws on a wide range of current and archival government sources, parliamentary debates, and opinion pieces in news outlets, as well as an extensive selection of academic sources. Geir K. Almlid is Associate Professor at Nord University, Norway. Having previously studied international studies at the University of East Anglia, Geir has published in the areas of history and political science. His book Britain and Norway in Europe Since 1945 was published by Palgrave Macmillan in 2020. |
