	The American-Scandinavian Foundation: A Very Special Monarchy By Per Egil Hegge
		Sweden's King Carl Gustaf, and Norway's King Harald, are a tightly knit group of close relatives in a very special job.
		There was no disrespect in their presentations, but they were mildly satirical, and the king, who has an irreverent and well-developed sense of humor-not that his position allows him to display it very often-obviously enjoyed himself.
		What happened after this year's Royal Inspection was only one episode; but in my view, it serves to illustrate that even two royal marriages to commoners, about whom there has been more than a whiff of debate, will hardly erode the position of the monarchy.
