The Nordic countries have a tradition of strong support for their public service media and have also developed public service models that are characterized by their relatively small size and small populations. Moreover, the companies have many years’ experience of collaboration within the region – particularly with regard to coproduction of programs. On the contemporary international arena, within organizations such as the UN and UNESCO, there exists a fundamental conviction that public service media – which are neither commercial nor state owned and which are free from political influence – foster well-informed and enlightened citizens and therefore constitute a cornerstone of democratic development. When models of public service media are discussed, the British BBC often comes to the fore, but there are few countries today that can look to the BBC as a realistic model for development of their own public service media. Instead, well-tested models from “small” countries are sought. This is what makes Nordic Public service media interesting from a global perspective. Given this interest, Nordicom has carried out extensive work in the area of public service media organization, content and audiences in the Nordic countries. The results of these efforts include recent research findings and statistical overviews – all within the frame of what we have chosen to call A Nordic Public Service Media Map.
