This research aims to discover the relationship between Nordic culture and European culture from the vision of cultural policy.

On the basis of concept analysis of identity and national identity, the project examines national identity in the process of the evaluation of cultural policies: setting policy objectives, assessing the resources used, and measuring the effects of policy in operation. The project gives a broad overview of cultural policies in Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Finland, and Iceland, including national cultural institutions, areas of operation, and stages and characteristics of the cultural policies. Then the project explains cultural cooperation in Nordic region and with EU through institutional analyses and case studies. In comparison Nordic cultural policy with EU cultural policy on principle and value, the project tries to explore the Nordic cultural model in European perspective.
