Summary/Abstract: The starting point of the analysis in the article is the notion of Norway’s High North policy (nordområdepolitiken) and the profile of it. What is under investigation is the question, whether this policy is founded on the ideals of cooperation or whether it is rather to be conceived as a disguise. The explanation of the sources and essence of the policy, including Norwegian-Russian relations, suggest that it is characterized by stability, continuity, dynamism and strong ties with Norway’s interests in the domain of domestic policy. These qualities justify the conclusion that Norway’s policy in the High North is really based on the ideals of cooperation between the states.
