Nordic world is the world of Social Democrats. But is it really?

from The Global Agora · host Andrej Matisak

When was the last time the Labour Party in Norway didn't win the parliamentary election? In 1924. And the series of victories didn't stop on September 13. While the Labour Party won only 26,3 percent of votes, which is historically one of the weakest results, they will still have 48 seats in the parliament and everybody expects that they will establish a governing coalition with the Socialist Left and the Center Party. And that would mean that all five Nordic countries will be run by the center-left governments. But does it really matter? I talked to Nicholas Aylott, an Associate Professor of Political Science at Södertörn University. His main academic interest is in comparative European politics, with a focus on political parties. Listen to our conversation.
