A Concise history of Finland, from its part in the Swedish kingdom to autonomous nation state

Format: Paperback / softback
Length: 344 pages
Publication date: 19 March 2020
Publisher: C Hurst & Co Publishers Ltd


From its integration as a part of the Swedish kingdom to its autonomous status as a Grand Duchy within the Russian empire, Finland experienced a remarkable journey of transformation and maturation. Henrik Meinander paints a vivid and compelling portrait of this history, highlighting the gradual evolution of Finland into a conscious nation, an independent state, and a skilled adaptor of modern technology.

The Baltic region serves as the primary geographical backdrop for Meinander's study, and he skillfully weaves his analysis into the broader tapestry of European history. By examining the interplay between structural developments and pivotal turning points, the author provides a unique perspective on Finland's development. The book seamlessly blends politics, economics, and culture, offering a comprehensive exploration of how human and natural resources have been harnessed in Finland, and the profound impact that its cultural heritage and technological innovation have had on its growth.

In a departure from traditional approaches, Meinander places greater emphasis on recent and contemporary events. By contextualizing Finland within its Baltic and European settings, he sheds light on how these two contexts have coalesced to shape Finland into the vibrant and dynamic country it is at the dawn of the twenty-first century.

Through his meticulous research and insightful analysis, Meinander offers readers a comprehensive understanding of Finland's historical trajectory, providing valuable insights into the country's past, present, and future. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in exploring the rich tapestry of Finnish history, culture, and society.
