Are Norwegians more independent?
It has often been suggested that Norwegians value independence, individualism, and self-reliance more than North Americans. Proponents of this idea point to the fact that Norwegian children take more responsibility for their education, are more self-sufficient in daily life, and exercise more control over life decisions. Below is a brief consideration of some of the research done contrasting Americans and Canadians with their Norwegian counterparts. The third North American nation, Mexico, is unfortunately not represented in the comparative literature of Norwegian culture and, as a consequence, will not be examined here.

Soskenflokken (Part III of III)
Though useful to speak of sibling relationships in an abstracted way, a look into the intimate channels of sibling relationships over the life course may provide a more meaningful mapping of the concepts above. "Anna" is a female pensioner interviewed by Vigdis Hegna Myrvang (1992) in her article, "'Life goes on as usual': The 'leisure' of female old-age pensioners."

Soskenflokken: Sibling Relationships in Norway (Part I of III)
Though there has been extensive research on sibling relationships across both time and culture, the literature on the Norwegian søskenflokk (sibling-flock) is surprisingly absent, or at least underrepresented. Despite the fact that Norwegian genealogical research is "sibling heavy" in comparison with the pedigrees of other ethnicities, though biographies and memoirs are filled with explanations of birth order and references to sibling relationships, there has been, to my knowledge, no systematic attempt to account for meanings of sibling structures in the Norwegian context.

The life of a merchant marine (part I)
During WWII, 706 Norwegian merchant vessels were lost and over 3,600 seamen killed. While there are many chapters written glorifying the bravery of Norwegian sailors during WWII, there are few that seek to understand their experience in personal, rather than militaristic or nationalistic terms, nor do they explore the high rate of divorce, out of wedlock births, and suicides during this period and after. German occupation and the war worsened conditions for Norwegians at home and abroad, not only by interfering with industry, education, and food supply, but also by disrupting a pattern of sea-faring traditions and exacerbating the already present tension within coastal culture.

The Norwegian Fetus (Part I of II)
We’ve all heard horror stories about women who’ve experienced some trauma during pregnancy, only to have their baby born with an impression of that trauma stamped into their physical or psychological being. Take, for instance, the woman who, frightened by a stampeding elephant, dies while giving birth to a child with an enormous head. Or the woman who, after an encounter with a nervous horse, delivers a hoofed babe. An old wive’s tale? Maybe so, but ought we really throw the baby out with the bathwater?

The Norwegian Fetus (Part II of II)
As an expectant mother, pay attention to how your “insides” are interacting with your “outsides” and actively look for unique learning opportunities. Learn to recognize the types of things that your baby responds to in the womb, whether it be music or motion or even the faint presence of light, and identify strategies for integrating aspects of Norwegian culture into these events. If you are creative and persistent, you may actually end up with a child that has an acute and thoughtful appreciation of Norwegian culture. Just don’t forget to keep it up after it’s born!

The Social Role of Infants in Human and Non-Human Primates
