Krátky popis
At a 2012 conference on social mobility, Ed Miliband said: 'If you
want the American dream, go to Finland. For decades, the country
best known for opportunity had been the United States, but that
crown has now been taken by our Nordic neighbours.When journalist
Anu Partanen moved from her Scandinavian home to the US in 2008,
she quickly went from being a confident, successful professional to
a wary, self-doubting mess. She found that navigating the basics of
everyday life buying a mobile, filing taxes, education and
childcare were more complicated and stressful than anything she had
encountered before. As Partanen got to know Americans better, she
discovered that they shared her deep apprehension, and to learn why
she looked closely at the differences between life in her Nordic
home country and the US.In The Nordic Theory of
Everything,&,nbsp,Partanen focuses on four key relationships:
between parents and children, men and women, employees and
employers, and the government and its citizens. She debunks the
criticism that the Nordics are socialist nanny states, revealing
instead that it is we who are far more enmeshed in unhealthy
ependencies than we realise. Her conclusion: the Nordic approach
allows citizens to enjoy more individual freedom and independence.
Filled with fascinating insights, advice and practical
solutions,&,nbsp,The Nordic Theory of
Everything&,nbsp,makes a convincing argument that we can
rebuild society, rekindle optimism and restore true freedom to our
lives, while pursuing the 'American' dream by following the Nordic
way of life.
