Window of opportunity. Dutch and Swedish security ideas and strategies 1942–1948. Studia Historica Upsaliensia 252. 284 pp. Uppsala: Acta Universitatis Upsaliensis. ISBN 978-91-554-9200-7. The period treated in this thesis is one which is often characterized as a transition between World War II and the Cold War. By approaching it instead as a window of opportunity – a period in which the governments of small states perceived both an unusual space and an urgent need to reevaluate security – the security policies of two small northwestern European countries, the Netherlands and Sweden, are subjected to a critical reappraisal. Through a systematic comparison of the security ideas and strategies in two countries that ended up with different positions on alignment/non-alignment during the Cold War, this dissertation sheds new light on the reasons for the development of those security policies as well as on their significance. Not only does it uncover a number of concrete security strategies that were remarkably similar regardless of diffe- rent circumstances, but it shows that the Swedish and Dutch governments formed similar ideas about the needs for future security in spite of different war experiences. Both concluded that small states could no longer survive in isolation and instead aimed for a better functioning system of collective security, built on the close cooperation of regional groups. This thesis argues that the different choices regarding security in 1948, when the Dutch signed the Treaty of Brussels and the Swedish reclaimed a policy of non-alignment, were in fact motivated by the same wish to maintain as wide a margin for manoeuvre as possible for the cooperation envisioned during the war, seeing this as the best guarantee of peace and independence.

During this transitional period, many far-reaching administrative reforms were the Swedish at Agency Personal Age of Greatness 1560–1720 Greatness of Age carried out, and the Swedish state developed into a prime example of the ‘power-state’.

  • Konungen Och Regeringsbildningen
    KONUNGEN OCH REGERINGSBILDNINGEN Av docent ELIS H.fSTAD, Stockholm l DEBATTEN om en samlingsregering eller inte kan man ofta möta invändningen, att förordet för en dylik regering - typiskt för de borgerliga, menar man - sett dagen först sedan dessa efter socialdemokratiens segrar utestängts ifrån regeringsmakten. Samtidigt säges det, att regeringstillsättningarna i Sverige före parlamentarismens introduktion för 30 a 40 år sedan ofta voro partibetonade. Den strävan att göra regeringen objektiv, allsidigt rekryterad och balanserande samhällsklasserna, som bildar moti­ vet för rekommendationerna av en samlingsregering, skulle inte ha förnummits tidigare hos konungamakten. Det kan vara skäl att pröva dessa ganska gängse uppfattningar i ljuset av det svenska regeringssystemets historiska utveckling. Ser man problemet uteslutande från den sociala synpunkten, är det självklart att ståndsintressen och klassfördomar ända in i vår tid spelade en dominerande roll. Det dröjde långt om länge, innan en arbetare (1918), ja, t. o. m. en bonde (1905) fick träda in i konseljsalen. Att enbart fästa avseende härvid vore emellertid att anakronistiskt bortse från det väsentliga. Om man följer regeringsbildningarna under Oscar II :s och Gustav V :s tid, är det obestridligt att dessa monarker länge voro motståndare till parlamentarismen som doktrin. De ville inte av­ hända kungamakten dess grundlagsenliga rätt att »kalla och ut­ nämna» rådgivare. I sitt praktiska handlande vid regeringskriser voro de dock trots detta uppenbarligen allt annat än vänner av ensidiga eller extrema lösningar. En fortlöpande syntetisk under­ sökning av deras syftemål vid regeringsbildningarna saknas ännu, men åtskilliga ledtrådar ges. Oscar II :s första ministär var den efter Karl XV i arv fallna ämbetsmannaregeringen Adlercreutz-Bergström.

  • The Forgotten Revolution: Challenging Conventional Wisdom on Sweden's Transition to Democracy
    The forgotten revolution: Challenging conventional wisdom on Sweden’s transition to democracy Johan Karlsson Schaffer, PhD Norwegian Centre for Human Rights University of Oslo, Norway [email protected] This version: April 27, 2010 Work in progress – comments are appreciated! Abstract A long, established tradition suggests that Sweden’s process of democratisation was characterised by its gradualness and reformism. In contrast to other countries, such as Denmark, Sweden did not have an abrupt, democratic revolution, this tradition holds. In this paper, I argue that this conventional view is flawed: In the course of a decade in the early twentieth century, Sweden went from being one of the least democratic countries in Europe to become a full-fledged, stable democracy. This signifies a fast, dramatic process of democratisation – a democratic revolution. The paper proceeds in four parts: First, I review the established conventional view of Swedish democratisation. Second, I present quantitative comparative data and historical evidence that seem to falsify the conventional view, and indeed indicate that Sweden’s democratisation was anything but slow and gradual. Third, I explore some reasons why the conventional view has gained hold, looking both at the way in which academic researchers have reached the conven- tional conclusion and how the conventional view might be understood in relation to the victorious parties in the struggle to gain recognition and legitimacy. In the concluding part, I consider how this historical narrative lives on in present-day politics, discussing how Swedish development aid seeks to export this historically faulty myth that successful democratisation must be slow and gradual, rather than revolutionary.i Words: 4 053 Characters: 23 126 1/12 Conventional wisdom on Sweden’s democratisation Existing research confirms the generally held opinion that Sweden became democratic through a stepwise, gradual process, from constitutional reforms in 1809 up to the breakthrough of democ- racy roughly a century later.

  • Role of the United States in the Indonesian Independence Movement: 1945-1949
    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of die page in tfie adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.
