Relations between Norway and China have been strained since Liu Xiaobo was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2010. However, this situation is neither entirely new nor surprising, according to authors Kjell Arald Nielsen and Helle Ågrem. In this book, they reveal how the crises have developed since the 1950s under Mao. Norway has repeatedly faced attempts at domination by the great powers of the East, and many of these stories are told for the first time. The book shows Norway at times yielding and sacrificing its principles on the altar of diplomacy, but it also shows periods when Norway stood its ground. It highlights a diplomacy that kept the government closely informed. This book reveals entirely new information about the relationship between the two countries.
