Nordic Theory of Everything: In Search of a Better Life
Nordic Theory of Everything: In Search of a Better Life
After moving from Finland to the United States, journalist Anu Partanen was struck by how stressful everyday life could be—from handling taxes and phone plans to navigating education and childcare. In The Nordic Theory of Everything, she explores the differences between American and Nordic society through four relationships: parents and children, men and women, employees and employers, and citizens and government.
Partanen challenges common assumptions about Nordic social systems and considers how their emphasis on independence and security might offer lessons for the United States. Thoughtful and engaging, this book invites readers to imagine a society that better supports individual freedom and a more secure, fulfilling life.
