Movements · norway_bondevik_ii_centre_right_2001_2005 Bondevik II KrF-H-V centre-right coalition 2001-2005 NOR · 2001 – 2005· KrF-Hoeyre-Venstre minority, FrP-tolerated
Leaders: Kjell Magne Bondevik (Prime Minister, KrF, 2001-2005) · Per-Kristian Foss (Finance Minister, Hoeyre, 2001-2005)
Doctrine — stated goals and content Centre-right reform coalition under Bondevik (KrF) with Hoeyre as the economic driver. Economic school: Norwegian market-liberal/ordoliberal — adoption of the handlingsregelen fiscal rule (March 2001, expected real return on Petroleum Fund set at 4%, later reduced to 3%), the 2004-2006 tax reform lowering top marginal rates and introducing the aksjonaermodellen (shareholder model / RRA). Left-right axis: centre- right. Dated policies: handlingsregelen adoption (March 2001, crossed Bondevik-I's gas-power principle in a sense by consolidating oil- revenue use), 2004 tax reform commission (Skauge Report), pension reform agreement (Stortingsmelding 12 2004-2005). Popularity: won 2001 election but lost 2005 decisively to Stoltenberg's red-green coalition. Coherence: moderate — KrF and Hoeyre differed on abortion/cultural policy but coalesced on the handlingsregelen and tax reform.

tax progressivity → fiscal.tax_progressivity
Progressivity of the personal income tax schedule, including top marginal rates, bracket spread, and targeted credits (EITC-equivalents).
decreased · moderate
less progressive (flatter rates, compression, smaller credits)
2004-2006 tax reform lowered top marginal rates on labour and capital.
↓
tax capital → fiscal.tax_capital
Taxation of capital income (dividends, capital gains, inheritance, wealth). Distinct from corporate rate.
decreased · moderate
lower capital income tax
Aksjonaermodellen reduced double-taxation of dividends above a risk-free rate.
—
spending level → fiscal.spending_level

unchanged · moderate
Handlingsregelen constrained oil-revenue spending to expected real return.
↑
rule of law → institutional.rule_of_law
Rule of law as institutional substrate — contract enforcement, judicial independence, equal treatment before the law. Upstream of most other axes.
