Beskrivelse
Explore the rise of Scandinavian popular novels and films over the past three decades in Crime and Fantasy in Scandinavia. Andrew Nestingen delves into how this cultural boom reflects shifts in Scandinavian society.
The book examines how popular culture challenges the uniformity of the post-WWII welfare state by highlighting diverse public spheres.
Andrew Nestingen presents a compelling argument that the expansion and prominence of popular culture have played a key role in shaping varied and diverse publics in Scandinavia. This stands in contrast to the unifying tendencies of the welfare state established after World War II.
Through an analysis of genres focused on individuals who break societal norms, Nestingen sheds light on the evolving nature of civil society within the Scandinavian welfare framework. The book also features discussions of internationally acclaimed creators such as Henning Mankell, Aki Kaurismäki, Lukas Moodysson, and Lars von Trier.
Andrew Nestingen is an Assistant Professor of Scandinavian Studies at the University of Washington.
