Each chapter tells the story of the policy's origins, aims, design, decision-making, and implementation processes, and assesses in which respects - programmatically, process-wise, politically, and over time - and to what extent it can be considered to have been successful.

Combined, the chapters provide a resource for researchers, educators, and students of public policy both within and beyond the Nordic region.
