- Summary:
- The idea of the 'Swedish model' has been a widespread and enduring concept in the social sciences since the 1930's, associated with the political dominance of the Social Democratic Party, peaceful social development and a tradition of political consensus. Taking this exceptionalism as their starting point, the essays in this volume present new research on Swedish political movements of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries which have been largely forgotten in history writing.
