Nima Sanandaji is one of the most popular and richest Author who was born on June 30, 1981 in Tehran, Tehran, Iran.
Nima Sanandaji (born June 30, 1981) is an Iranian-Swedish author of Kurdish descent. He has a background in natural sciences research and has published more than 25 books on innovation, entrepreneurship, women’s career opportunities, the history of enterprise and the future of the Nordic welfare states.
Sanandaji was born to middle-class ethnic Kurdish parents in Tehran. His parents came to Sweden from Iran in 1989. Tracing their roots to the village of Kilaneh, the Sanandaji family, which since the Islamic Revolution in 1979 have moved to Europe and the United States, were the dominant land and farm owners in the state of Kurdistan throughout its modern history. Until the White Revolution during the Shah’s reign, the Sanandaji family heavily influenced the economy and society of the region. It is for this reason that they bear the title of Khan and the name Sanandaji. The Sanandaji family had its wealth confiscated during the Iranian Revolution, prior to Nima Sanandaji’s birth; and he was therefore raised in Stockholm under precarious migrant circumstances. Sanandaji has conducted research in structural biochemistry at Cambridge University and has a degree in biotechnology from Chalmers University of Technology. He has a Ph.D. from the Royal Institute of Technology in polymer engineering. Sanandaji has previously been chairman of the Free Moderate Student League and the Swedish-American Association, both based in Gothenburg.

The leading Norwegian daily paper Dagbladet invited both Sanandaji and his critics to give their perspective. Einar Lier, professor of economic history; and Thori Lind, a researcher in social economics, criticized the book by writing that most researchers already know that Nordic prosperity preceded the welfare state. The two authors also criticize the comparison that Sanandaji does, showing that the lifespan difference between Norway and the United States was larger in 1960 before the shift towards a large welfare state in Norway than after this transformation had occurred. According to Lier and Lind, this comparison is not relevant since the rising life expectancy in the United States is explained by a catching-up of African Americans.

In the summer of 2016, WND Books, an American conservative publisher and news outlet, published Debunking Utopia – Exposing the Myth of Nordic Socialism. In this book, Sanandaji expands on the same themes as Scandinavian Unexceptionalism. Parts of the two books are highly similar or even identical. Debunking Utopia is longer, written in an easier to read language compared to the more academically oriented Scandinavian Unexceptionalism and links the topic to the Bernie Sanders campaign for the Democratic nomination which at the time was ongoing. A key argument made in the book is that already in 1960—before the shift towards high taxes and a large welfare state—Nordic countries were well ahead of the United States and other modern countries in terms of welfare measures such as long lifespan and low child mortality. Debunking Utopia states that in 1960 Danes on average lived 2.4 years longer than Americans, at a time when Denmark had a lower tax rate than the United States. The latest data for 2013, when Denmark had the highest tax rate in the world, instead show that the difference had shrunk to 1.5 years. This trend is also true for Sweden and Norway.
