Sosialdemokratiets tidsalder
Norway and the scandinavian economic history review
In the first volume of SEHR, published in 1953, we can find articles from Denmark, Finland and Sweden but not from Norway. The question is whether this was accidental or symptomatic. Professor Johan Schreiner was the Norwegian representative on the editorial board from the beginning, and I assume that he also took part in the founding meeting in 1952, described by Kristof Glamann. He also published an article in the second volume (1954) entitled …

A theory of economic and technological development in Norway in the nineteenth century
In the course of the nineteenth century, an industrial revolution took place in Norway, and the nation became integrated into the developed part of the world economy. What had been a pre-industrial society, with primary industries and a predominant self-sufficiency, became a developed country, acquiring the political and social structures and the self-sustaining economic-growth mechanisms typical of developed countries. Economic growth was especi…
From liberal constitutionalism to corporate pluralism
In 1945 all the political parties represented in the Storting (the Norwegian parliament) put up a joint program for the reconstruction period. The only party not to sign the program was the Communist Party. The setting up of a joint program has led to the conclusion that there was an exceptionally high degree of political consensus in Norway in the late forties. There are, however, some factors which complicate the picture. On the one hand it is …
Democracy and the rule of law
The rule of law and democracy correspond to the two different concepts of liberty, the negative, which makes liberty dependent on the curbing of authority, and the positive, which makes it dependent on the exercising of authority. These two concepts of liberty are, according to Isaiah Berlin, “two profoundly divergent and irreconcilable attitudes to the ends of life.” The claims of each of them have, however, “an equal right to be classed among t…
The development of economic history in Norway
It might be a matter of dispute whether economic history is today a subject in its own right in Norway, that is whether there is a significant body of historians who identify with one another and with the problems, techniques and assumptions of economic history. Economic history is not really formally established. In contrast to Denmark and Sweden, there are no departments of economic history in the universities. An important exception is the eco…

The uses of theory
This textbook on methodology and theory for economic and social historians is designed for use at a variety of educational levels, and assumes that it is to be deployed in conjunction with supplementary reading. The book consists of fifteen selected methodological articles by various authors, arranged in eight chapters, each including an introduction and commentary by Adamson, with a number of exercises

The Norwegian match industry prior to 1900
The development of the match industry has many features characteristic of the period of the industrial breakthrough. Although the direct economic impact of the industry on Norway was not very great, matches themselves helped to revolutionise the everyday life of the individual. The industry stimulated chemists and technicians and attracted many entrepreneurs. In the early 1870s, one of the liveliest periods of expansion, it was among the most suc…
Aspects of the Norwegian timber trade in the 1840S and ’50S
The 1840s and '50s saw the beginnings of a new wave of economic expansion in Norway. There are good reasons for regarding this as the opening stage of the industrial breakthrough. At the time the production of timber was the country's most important industry not only in the matter of size but also by virtue of the opportunities it offered for technical and economic innovation and the incentives it provided in other fields, particularly transport
