The Pursuit of Governance
Nordic Dispatches on a New Middle Way
Fabrizio Tassinari

“A must for anyone who wants to understand how and why the Nordic model of governance works. Rare are those who can tell a vivid story and frame it in a useful context. This book does both.”
–
Alexander Stubb, Former Prime Minister of Finland
“Brims with insights on a wide range of subjects, from labor relations to bureaucratic peculiarities to cultural differences. Most important is Tassinari’s grasp of ‘the middle way’ as a process more than an ideology, almost like a dance with agreed steps that create a larger pattern. The book opens up a new set of governance possibilities.” – Anne-Marie Slaughter, Princeton University
Fabrizio Tassinari seeks to rediscover the methods, practices and limits of good governance by taking inspiration from the Nordic region, where democratic governance has delivered some of its most impressive feats.
Fabrizio Tassinari is Executive Director of the School of Transnational Governance at the European University Institute.
