In spite of the important pioneering contributions of such scholars as Hjelmslev,
Brøndal, and Malmberg, and the continuous effort of a generation of,
mainly, Danish semioticians, semiotics for a long time seem unable to convince
Nordic scientific communities of its value and relevance. There are now, however,
semiotic associations in several Nordic countries, in Finland since 1979, in
Norway since 1985 (now dormant), in Iceland since 1990, and in Sweden since
1991. There is an International Semiotics Institute in Imatra, Finland, an Institute
of Literature and Semiotics in Odense, Denmark, a Seminar
of General Semiotics in Aarhus, Denmark, and a Department
of Semiotics, in Lund, Sweden.
Because of the small scale of Nordic countries, and in particular their scientific communities, and because of the tradition of collaboration between these countries, most organizational work in semiotics has taken place at the common Nordic level, as testified by the above-mentioned congresses and research courses. NASS also manages a Nordic Network of Semiotics, financed by the Nordic Research Academy.
