Two issues of the journal were devoted to a discussion of contemporary Scandinavia. They were

Scandinavia‟s future.

in communications and the labour movement. All are studied in terms of the „costing‟ process by

which each state is shown to have evaluated the comparative advantages to the proposals.

Minn., 1935 (UHS)

The author weaves together the different threads that created and then destroyed in Norway the

hopes for a Scandinavian union. He emphasizes the friction within the Swedish-Norwegian union,

the two generations of Scandinavianists in the 19th century and the clash in Norway between those

desiring a union of Denmark, Norway, and Sweden and those fearing further Swedish

encroachment within the union and hoping for independence. The work also includes ten

appendixes.

in Scandinavian Studies, 47:3, Society for the Advancement of Scandinavian Study,

Urbana, 1975 (UHS)

Studies both public and private British sentiment regarding Norway‟s attempt to become

year.

Leiren, Terje I., „Sigurd Ibsen and the origins of the national monarchy in Norway‟, in

Scandinavian Studies, Vol 51, No 4, 1979 (UHS)

Discusses the part played by Sigurd Ibsen in the promotion during the late 1890s, of an

independent Norway governed by a „national‟ monarchy. His major contribution was to make

such an idea acceptable to a large number of Norwegians and he was therefore instrumental in the

creation of such a government in 1905.

The first part of this study is of greatest interest as far as Norway is concerned because it deals

with Norway‟s declaration of independence in 1905 and the Integrity Treaty that it eventually

negotiated with the Great Powers. The second part describes Sweden‟s difficulties as it was caught

between competing Russian and German interests in the Baltic during the same period.

Lindgren, R.E., Norway-Sweden, union, disunion, and Scandinavian integration,

Westport, Conn., 1979 (UBIT)

The theme is the pressure in Norway on the union with Sweden during the 19th century and its

dissolution in 1905. First printed in 1959 (this edition is available at UHS) this is the chief source

in English on the subject. The final chapter considers the crisis from 1905 to 1908 over Norway‟s

desire for an integrity treaty from the Great Powers and Nordic co-operation from that time until

the late 1950s.

reading list on the subject.

Mathisen, Trygve, Svalbard in the changing Arctic, Oslo, 1954 (UHS)

A continuation of Svalbard in international politics 1871 – 1925: The solution of a unique

international problem. The author studies the area from the treaty of 1920 granting Norway

sovereignty over the region until about 1950. Of special interest is the last half of the book which

discusses the Russian proposals of 1945 of joint Soviet-Norwegian control over parts of the

archipelago and the impact of postwar economic and political developments.

Means, Ingunn Norderval, „Norway and EEC‟, in Scandinavian Studies, Vol 46, No 4,

European integration, London, 1977 (UHS)

A study of the specific political and economic interests of Finland, Sweden, Norway, and

Denmark, including their many successful attempts to cooperate with each other, and the

difficulties they have had in extending this mutual cooperation as a group to wider European

economic and political associations. Extensive consideration is given to the abortive efforts to

create Nordek, a Nordic free trade association, the establishment of the European Free Trade Area

(EFTA) and in particular the policies each established towards the EEC in the early 1970s. In

addition to specific references to Norway‟s role and interests in these events throughout the book,

the author devotes an entire chapter to Norway‟s rejection of membership of the EEC.

An analytical examination of Norwegian foreign policy with respect to the USA, Britain and the

USSR. Udgaard traces three major developments during the period: The abandonment of pre-war

neutrality by commitments made early in the war to Britain and the US for cooperation not only

during the war but afterwards as well; the bridgebuilding policy begun later in the war out of

concern for the reestablishment of Soviet power in the North; and the reassessment of this policy

in 1947 which led later to Norway‟s adherence to NATO. Contains an extensive bibliography.

Studies the different forms of neutrality practised during the period, offering the United States and

the Scandinavian countries as contrasting studies. Norway figure prominently in the work as the

country‟s neutrality was tested severely during the First World War, and it was unable to remain

neutral in 1940, due to the German invasion.

Hewins, Ralph, Quisling: Prophet without honour, London, 1965 (UHS)

A biography exonerating Quisling‟s motives and conduct both before and during the German

occupation in the Second World War. It de-emphasizes the similarity of his views with those of

Hitler and their pre-war association and maintains that Quisling not only possessed the most

honourable and wise policy for Norway before the war but also tried to maintain Norway‟s

independence within the German Reich. This is a controversial work representing an extreme

position in the post-war research and discussion on Qusling.

several documents from the period.

Koht, Halvdan, Norway: Neutral and invaded, London, 1941 (UHS)

Outlines Norway‟s neutrality before the German invasion with the main emphasis on the invasion

itself, the government‟s activities while still in Norway, and its reestablishment in England during

the summer of 1940. The author was Norway‟s Foreign Minister during the crisis and this work

offers interesting perspectives on the period. An appendix reprints relevant documents from the

spring and summer of 1940.

Lehmkuhl, Herman K., Hitler attacks Norway, Montreal, 1943 (NBO)

Norway, and their impact on Norwegian finance, aluminium industry, foreign trade, and fishing.

Moulton, J.L., The Norwegian Campaign of 1940: A study of warfare in three

dimensions, London, 1966 (UHS)

An analysis of the war in Norway in 1940 which was the first occasion when all three dimensions

of warfare on land, air, and sea were involved. The emphasis is on the non-Norwegian combatants,

and the successful tactics employed by the Germans in all three dimensions, and the mistakes

made by the British and French. Contains a valuable bibliography not only of Norwegian sources

but also of important British secondary sources, such as regimental histories. An interesting final

chapter on the Battle of Guadacanal in the Pacific during the Second World War serves as a

„yardstick‟ to measure the validity of the author‟s thesis. The work should be particularly valuable

to those who require a detailed military history of the war in Norway.

Nansen, Odd, From day to day, New York, 1949 (UBIT)

A diary kept by the author, the son of Fridtjof Nansen, after his arrest by the Germans on 13

January 1942 until 28 April 1945. The first part of his imprisonment was spent in Norway and in

October 1943 he was transferred to Germany. An interesting portrayal of prison life during the

Nazi rule of Norway. Nansen had been a supporter of Quisling‟s movement for a short time during

the 1930s although this is not considered in the book.

until 1949. Subjects treated include an article on the 1930s background, Scandinavia as a disputed

region among the Great Powers from 1939 to 1940, Finland‟s Winter War, the German invasion

and occupation of Denmark and Norway, the resistance movements, liberation in 1945, and the

unsuccessful attempts to establish a Nordic security pact after the war. Two Norwegian historians

participated in the project; Ole Kristian Grimnes contributed „The Beginnings of the resistance

movement‟ and Berit Nøkleby wrote „Adjusting to Allied victory.‟ A detailed and partially

annotated bibliography is particularly useful.

Petrow, Richard, The bitter years: The invasion and occupation of Denmark and Norway

April 1940 – May 1945, New York, 1974 (UHS)

A survey of the war years emphasizing the military aspect. Covers the invasion and the military

Norway, Oslo, 1970 (HIO)

An introduction to Norway‟s resistance to Nazi rule. The two main themes are the unsuccessful

efforts made by Vidkun Quisling and the German military officials to force Norway into

acquiescence to German rule and the development of the military resistance movement that

government-in-exile in London.

the German occupation from the standpoint of an outsider who became an insider as a result of her

experiences.

immigrants that led to schisms as often as to consolidation, and of the significant role of the

Norwegians, not only in religion but also in such fields as higher education in America.

Søren Jaabæk, a Norwegian radical peasant politician (1814-1894), and the editor of the

newspaper Folketidende reluctantly supported emigration and used the United States as a model

for the social and political forms that Norway should possess. If Norway influenced America

through emigration, then Jaabæk‟s work is an example of the reverse also being true.
