Ekonomický model Skandinávie a jeho udržitelnost na základě příkladu Norska a Švédska

Economic model of Scandinavia, also known as the Scandinavian model, is one of the four types of the European Social Model. Scandinavian model achieves very good economic results while providing a high level of social protection for its citizens. Social protection is provided universally. The social costs of the Scandinavian model are high and the social aspect is an integral part of the model. Economies which we classify as Scandinavian Model countries are like other European countries threatened by trends in the world economy such as: immigration, pressure on rising income inequalities and changes in the world economy - especially digitalisation and the related growth of new industries. Political leaders and especially the labour market must respond effectively to these trends in a timely manner. The diploma thesis analyses the Scandinavian model using Norwegian and Swedish economies as examples with an emphasis on the question of sustainability.
