Stein Ringen
Scandinavian history has been one of dramatic discontinuities of collapse and restarts, from the Viking Age to the Age of Perpetual War to the modern age today. For a thousand years, the Scandinavian countries were kingdoms of repression where monarchs played at the game of being European powers, at the expense of their own populations.
The brand we now know as "Scandinavia" is a recent invention. During most of its history, Denmark and Sweden, and to some degree Norway, were bloody enemies. These sentiments of enmity have not been fully settled. Under the surface of collaboration remain undercurrents of hatred, envy, contempt and pity.
What does it mean today to be Scandinavian? For the author, whose identity is Scandinavian but his life European, this masterly history is a personal exploration as well as a narrative of compelling scope.

批評家のレビュー
Carrying us from the Vikings to today, Stein Ringen's sweeping narrative will engage and instruct everyone from specialists to first-timers. Scandinavia is another outstanding book from a writer remarkable for the breadth of his reach and the incisiveness of his analysis (James T. Kloppenberg, author)
While not losing sight of the differences between the ways the Swedish, Danish and Norwegian social democrats navigated the local waters, Ringen skilfully teases out the common denominators . . . He also writes in a pleasant, breezy, non-nonsense style (Henrik Berggren)
Excellent . . . A treasure
Remarkable . . . [Ringen's] prose moves briskly through centuries without becoming overwhelming, and he balances broad historical movements with telling details that bring the past alive (Jennifer Eremeever, author)
