Geografien og globusen former lett det metale kart i våre og andres hoder, av et Norge som er kalt "balkongen i det store verdensteateret"? der vi holder lett avstand, observerer mer enn vi deltar, formaner andre, og bare sjelden må søke dekning og hjelp når det faller skarpe skudd. Slik fremstår Norge i denne boken, der en historiker trekker opp de lange linjene i norsk utenrikspolitikk, professor Olav Riste går hele 1000 år tilbake i historien. Boken er til dels en sammenfatning av flerbindsverket?Norsk utenrikspolitikks historie? og til dels et resultat av forfatterens egen forskning. Rikt illustrert i svart/hvitt. Med noter, litteraturliste og register. Engelsk tekst.

Norway has a thousand year history from the Vikings (750-1100) to modern times. Historically, a poor country on Europe’s periphery, its natural resources and hardy people have established a successful modern welfare state. Norway has exploited its natural resources of fish, water, oil, and gas to become one of Europe’s most successful small states. This second edition of I contains a chronology, an introduction, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 300 cross-referenced entries on important personalities, politics, economy, foreign relations, religion, and culture. This book is an excellent resource for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about Norway.

One of the smallest countries in Europe, Norway has created for itself a position in the world community, which is completely out of proportion to the size of its population. Originally the home of sub-Arctic hunters and gatherers, then of ferocious Vikings, it lost perhaps half of its population to the Black Death in 1349, ended up in a union with Denmark that lasted until 1814, and then became united with Sweden, gaining complete independence only as recently as 1905. Over the centuries the Norwegians eked out a meager living from stony fields and treacherous seas while suffering through hunger, darkness, and cold, however, its recent productive use of such natural resources as hydroelectric power, natural gas, and oil has made the Norwegians some of the richest people in the world. The A to Z of Norway supplies a wealth of information that illuminates Norway's remarkable history, society, and culture. This is done through a chronology, a bibliography, an introductory essay, appendixes, and over 250 cross-referenced dictionary entries covering events and individuals of historical, political, social, and cultural significance. Both past and present political parties are discussed, major economic sectors are described, and basic economic facts are provided. Several entries describe the history and attractions of major Norwegian cities, and Norway's role in the international community is detailed as well providing a full portrait of this vibrant country.
