Scandinavian colonialism

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Scandinavian colonialism is a subdivision within broader colonial studies that emphasizes the role of Scandinavian nations in achieving economic benefits from outside of their own cultural sphere. The field ranges from studying the Sami in relation to the Norwegian, Swedish and Finnish states, to activities of the Danish and Swedish Empire in Africa and on Caribbean islands such as St. Thomas and Saint-Barthélemy.

Several American universities offer courses concerning the developing field.[1][2]
