He will come to Gamlehaugen to talk about his book, and the connection between Christian Michelsen and Fridtjof Nansen, and their positions in foreign policy. Both believed that Norway as a free country would be best off with a new monarchy. This would give us the necessary freedom and good relations with the other kingdoms of Europe. Neumann will also discuss today’s situation, with emphasis on Norway’s relationship with Europe. Neumann holds a doctorate in political science from the University of Oxford, a doctorate in social anthropology from the University of Oslo, was professor at the London School of Economics, and is adjunct professor at the Museum of Cultural History.
