      ABSTRACT

      Roughly speaking we can distinguish between two types of study of the

      Nordic countries. One tradition emphasizes their inherent similarities

      and seeks to identify a significant Nordic model. The other tradition

      dwells on the differences between the countries. In this chapter we will

      examine both these traditions and ask whether adaptation to the EU

      takes place within established administration regimes, or whether it

      represents a fundamental break with the past, involving profound

      changes to the administrative models of the Nordic countries. Our

      conclusion is that the administrations adapt within robust and stable

      organizational forms. The fundamental formal administrative models

      remain firm while at the same time significant changes take place in

      administrative work (Lægreid 2001b, Christensen 2002, Olsen 2002b,

      Marcussen and Ronit 2003).
