Essay / Research Paper Abstract
A 5 page paper discussing the conviction of the people of Norway. The government is obliged to act as it is instructed by the people, which is all that has kept it outside the European Union until now. Governmental leaders have wanted it, but the working people of the nation have not. Norway remains independent of the EU, and boasts one of the most robust economies of the region. The Norwegian people have been unshakable for 50 years, and they have a history of self-reliance and a brand of obstinacy that has contributed to their long-term survival. It is unlikely that the voters will change their minds unless they can see sound reason for doing so. While Norway leads Europe in both economic indicators and social values, that change is not likely to occur. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

when another national referendum was held on the matter and it was defeated by the people (Kvaloy, 1999). Still another was held in 1994, when the measure was still
defeated by the people. That the referendum was negative for joining the EU came as no surprise to the people, but it was
of great surprise to both government and business, as well as all of the media. All three entities "had campaigned vigorously for a yes vote. The government had put
its life at stake over the referendum, and had to go" (Kvaloy, 1999; p. 206). It was taken over by Kjell Magne Bondevik, a Lutheran clergyman who has stressed
values and family issues. As example, "mothers of young children can now get cash to stay at home instead of putting their offspring in state- subsidised nurseries while they
