The Reykjavik Grapevine
How an interview for an English-language paper is cause for celebrationIceland has just been voted, again, the most peaceful nation in the world.
Twenty percent of the population of Iceland does not speak Icelandic at the level of native speakers.
But I also believe her willingness to engage with an English-language paper suggests this government could have enormous possibilities.
In this home to Alþingi, on paper the oldest continuous parliament in the world, does the world still celebrate democracy?
As an English-language paper in Iceland, we have been baited frequently into jumping into sub-moral arguments of no cultural value.
