		Norwegian expat Ole Johnsen reports from Denmark, one of the European countries which scored best on the Economic Freedom Index, and isn't at all pleased with its recent political developments.
		The Norwegian Liberal Party is still a classically liberal party, while the Danish has thrown all that's left of its liberalism overboard, and dedicated itself wholeheartedly to right-populism.
		The Conservative Party is positive to privatization and a free market, that is true, and that is why I voted for them, but as I've explained before I have been very disappointed with their ability or willingness to point the coalition rightwards, despite being the larger party.

		The position Norwegian women now enjoy in politics is largely due to the new women's movement which emerged towards the end of the 1960s.
		Although the Norwegian education sector and labour market remain strongly divided by gender, it is clear that women are gaining a stronger foothold in many educational programmes.
		Egalitarian values hold a strong position in Norwegian society and as a result the members of the Norwegian national assembly are drawn from all aspects of soceity.(2) This system of broad recruitment is crucial to the political representation of women, and takes place by means of political selection processes in a party system.
