Icelandic politics Speakers
Iceland has a population of 360,000, smaller than many cities in the UK, (Bristol is 460,000). Speakers on the politics and economics of Iceland are few in number but include Árni Páll Árnason, who as Minister for Economic Affairs, restructured the financial sector of the country following the deep financial crisis in Iceland, the effects of which were felt globally. The turnaround of the Icelandic economy has been more rapid than that of many European countries.
