- Abstract
Despite formal disputes, the Faroese political system functions as a de-facto independent political system that legislates, administers, and decides on issues affecting the life and opportunities of the individual Faroese citizen. This article presents basic features of the Faroese political system and introduces some political tendencies in the Faroe Islands. The Faroese political system is a case of a parliamentary system with a multiparty system, but while the political traditions are well-established, the administrative practices are of a much more recent date. During the last two decades, the Faroese political agenda has been characterized by polarization in relation to distributional as well as value policy. At the same time, a rare cross-party unity in relation to Denmark has developed, in terms of united demands for more influence on the joint foreign and security policy.
