Relaciones Prensa-Estado en el Modelo Nórdico

Although each country has followed a different historical development in its press system, there are common characteristics between Sweden, Norway, Finland and Denmark and in a less way Iceland. These similarities allow to speak of a Nordic model, which some scholars have described as democratic corporatist. For instance, the weight of the partisan press, understood as defenders of interests rather than as an expression of ideology, opposite the model to the Euro-Mediterranean model, much more ideological, or to the Anglo-Saxon model, much more deregulated. Education policy in the media and their support systems are other important distinguishing feature.
