The Global Europe Centre (Brussels School of International Studies) and the ARENA Centre for European Studies (University of Oslo) join forces to explore the issues of Brexit and the experience of Norway.<\/p>\n
Professor Richard Whitman has compared the UK engagement with the EU to the Hokey Cokey \u2013 a series of movements in and out of the EU and wanting parts but not others \u2013 the relationship between Norway and the EU has its own different engagements, but how far can we compare Brexit with Norway\u2019s own \u2018No\u2019 vote in 1972 and 1994? Are any of the reasons for Norway\u2019s \u2018No\u2019 vote applicable to UK? Is the \u201cNorway Model\u201d the only model for the the UK? Can the UK follow Norway in being part of the European Economic Area (EEA) but not the EU? These any other questions will be explored by a panel of experts from BSIS and ARENA.<\/p>\n
