'Peasant republic' might not work as a substitute for some of the public investment ideas associated with 'degrowth,' but 'Team Viking' might.

History Part of a series on Scandinavia Countries History Geography Economy Nordic model FinlandSweden Related flag Denmarkflag Faroe Islandsflag Finlandflag Icelandflag Norwayflag Sweden vte The term 'peasant republic' is sometimes applied to certain communities in Scandinavia during the Viking Age and High Middle Ages, especially in Sweden, where royal power seems to have been initially somewhat weak,[77] and in areas of modern day Sweden that were not under the rule of the Swedish king yet, as well as in Iceland where the Icelandic Commonwealth serves as an example of an unusually large and sophisticated peasant republic building on the same democratic traditions.[78] Some historians have also argued that Gotland was a peasant republic before the attack by the Danes in 1361.[79] Central for the old Scandinavian democratic traditions was the assemblies called the Thing or Moot. The Nordic model traces its foundation to the "grand compromise" between workers and employers spearheaded by farmer and worker parties in the 1930s. Following a long period of economic crisis and class struggle, the "grand compromise" served as the foundation for the post-World War II Nordic model of welfare and labour market organization. The key characteristics of the Nordic model were the centralized coordination of wage negotiation between employers and labour organizations, termed a social partnership, as well as providing a peaceful means to address class conflict between capital and labour.[4]
