The Norwegian model of criminal justice— a facet of the Scandinavian paradigm of alleged exceptionalism, is one of the unique attributes of this Nordic approach to social welfare, with a focus on aspects of normalization and rehabilitation as apparent fundamental principles and guiding philosophies. This study walks the reader through an outsider’s exploration of a case study in Norway, on the premise of understanding why there appears to be a conflict of interests. Media and outgroup research portrays the model for being progressive: encapsulating an approach which provides a guidepost through which the other systems can learn. Alternatively, some (not all) Norwegian’s tend to critique this viewpoint, pointing out several emerging flaws within the model. This research begins with an examination of the Avbyråkratiserings og effektiviseringsreformen (A.B.E reform), and its effects upon this model of justice. Following this, the discourse then analyzes prospective issues unearthed through a gendered perspective, as well as a dualistic view upon certain aspects of normalization. Using the evidence uncovered within this analytical case study, the research then attempts to theorize the overarching inquiries related to a narrative and image of exceptional corrections for the modern context going forward.
