Nordic Model is an economically moderate, civically liberal (mostly), and mostly culturally left ideology that believes in the Nordic political model. Combining market capitalism with a large welfare state and a neo-corporatist bargaining system.
It can be debated if the model is aligned more with Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Social Democracy or Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Social Liberalism due to the similarities between the two of them. Most of its followers would claim to be the former.
Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Bernie Sanders is probably his biggest fan outside of Scandinavia.

- Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Sanna Marin is a Finnish politician, former congressman, former Minister of Transport and Communications and the current Prime Minister of Finland. As a congresswoman, she has served on the grand committee, legal committee, environment committee, and has had congressional memberships on administration, futures, and finance committees.
As prime minister, she aimed to reform the Nordic Model to adapt to the environment, also opposing nuclear energy and having made alliances with environmentalists. It self-proclaims its values being "freedom, equality and solidarity" and "joint and communal responsibility". A characteristic of his government would be its opposition to Russia and Putin, who even initially opposed NATO membership, later, after the Russian invasion of Ukraine, in which Finland became favorable to NATO membership, making the alliance sign an accession protocol, in addition to being pro-Zelenskyy and pro-improvement of the relationship with Estonia. Even though it claims to be left (center-left), Finland is still the most economically free country, with Denmark behind according to The Heritage Foundation.
There are controversies surrounding her, such as the actions regarding the pandemic, the low quality of the food benefit (among other things) and a video of a private party she attended, increasing opposition, especially from conservatives.
