  • NESS Conference Paper
    THE SWEDISH REGIONAL REFORM AND THE POLITICAL MAP: PARTY INTERESTS AT STAKE David Karlsson 1 and Ylva Norén Bretzer 2 First draft for discussion at the XX NorKom conference Göteborg, SVERIGE, November 24 – 26, 2011. Prepared for Group 1 Abstract In this article we conduct contra factual experiment of thoughts, applying the tactics of gerrymandering into the regionalization process of Sweden. By applying the actual election data from 1998 up to 2010, we discuss the various outcomes of four regional models; i) the present system, ii) a realistic scenario of regional reform (a roadmap commissioned by SALAR), and two hypothetical but possible models based on what regional struc- ture would mostly benefit iii) the left parties and iv) the right parties. The overall aim of the paper is to esti- mate the implications of a regional reform on the political geography of Sweden to provide instruments for fu- ture research on if, and how party interests affect the regional reform process. The analyses also give fuel to a number of relevant discussions on regional reform and its political out- comes. For example, our results highlight the possible lock-in effects in the present discussions concerning the Stockholm/Uppsala regions, Västra Götaland and Halland/or Värmland, and the region of Southwest Sweden. One suggestion is that if citizens are to have long-term confidence in the future regional structure, it should be arranged in such a way that both the left and right wings are satisfied – a double-packing strategy. Such a strategy would make it relatively harder for smaller local/regional parties to affect the political stability of a region.

    Kent, Neil. 2008. A Concise History of Sweden. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press. xii+300 pages. ISBN: 978-0-521-01227-0. In the introduction to A Concise History of Sweden, Neil Kent correctly asserts that “a comprehensive history of Sweden is much needed” (i). His book is an ambitious attempt to fill a void. To write a general textbook which encompasses the entire history of one of the oldest states in Europe is challenging, as it forces difficult choices regarding what to include and what to omit. A Concise History of Sweden is written for an Anglo-American audience, something apparent in the choice of focus and references. While it is amusing to see the “match king” Ivar Kreuger introduced as the role model for a character in an early play by Ayn Rand, the Anglo-Saxon mould does not always fit. For instance, Kent over-emphasizes Sweden’s admittedly fascinating, but marginal colonial legacy. There are no less than 12 pages with references to Sweden’s miniscule Caribbean colony Saint Barthélemy, a tiny island of 21 km² with a population of a few thousand people and only six Swedish speakers by 1860. Kent’s over-emphasis of this detail comes at the price of overlooking some important events of far greater importance. For instance, there is no mention of the 1676 Battle of Lund, one of the bloodiest battles on Swedish soil in which almost 10,000 men lost their lives, and Swedish control over Skåneland—Scania, Blekinge, and Halland—was reconfirmed. It is difficult to understand why this event, which came to have a profound impact on Swedish history, is omitted from a standard textbook.

  • Allied Relations and Negotiations with Sweden A
    Allied Relations and Negotiations With Sweden A. The Allies and Sweden's Wartime Neutrality The geography of Sweden's wartime position, surrounded by German armed forces in Norway, Denmark, and Finland and cut off by the blockade imposed by both the Germans and the Allies, shaped the character of its neutrality stance and the Allies' economic warfare policies alike. Until 1943, Allied economic relations with Sweden were regulated by the Anglo-Swedish War Trade Agreement of December 1939, as modified to respond to the changing military situation in Scandinavia. The December 1939 agreement, in which both countries undertook to maintain the exchange of goods at the normal level (i.e., that of 1938), had two main provisions: Britain would not impede Swedish imports of reasonable quantities of commodities, and Sweden promised not to re-export certain specified goods and to maintain its total exports to Germany at 1938 levels. During the first several years of the War, Britain was satisfied that Sweden honored the terms of the 1939 trade agreement. German occupation of Denmark and Norway in April 1940 made the threat of German invasion of Sweden real. Sweden's neutrality was confirmed and defined by an exchange of letters between King Gustav and Adolf Hitler that same month. Swedish wartime diplomacy sought to ward off German invasion by adopting a neutrality that sacrificed some of Sweden's independence and made significant concessions to Germany. While the Allies understood Sweden's strategic plight and were sympathetic to a fellow democracy, concern persisted over Sweden's contribution to Germany's war effort.

Why is this so? The dissertation takes a close look at privatisation policies in health care in Denmark, Sweden and England in order to figure out how and why the private health care sector has expanded rapidly in recent years. Health care services in Denmark, Sweden and England provide good examples of welfare state service privatisation because these three countries have spent decades building up universal public health care systems that offer free and equal access to all citizens – and these programmes are very popular.

Here, we test the cultural feld hypoth- article esis on Sweden, an important democracy of Europe long regarded as an example by other European countries, by studying the middle-long-term evolution of the spatial structure of political choice over the last three decades. In testing the cultural feld hypothesis, an analysis of spatial correlations is combined with groupings of Swedish municipalities into larger communities refecting the similarity of their voting profles. We show that spatial correlations decay logarithmically, which is a sign of long-ranged interactions, and also demonstrate that Sweden can be divided into three or four large and stable politico-cultural communities. More precisely, a transition from three to four main politico-cultural communities is observed. The fourth community, which emerged in the early 2000s is of particular interest as it is characterized by a large vote- share for the Sweden Democrats, while almost all other parties underperform.

August 2007 Nord-Trøndelag University College Faculty of Teacher Education ISBN 978-82-7456-588-3 Steinkjer 2009 Foreword Being in Nature! We are glad to present papers from the Gisna valley conference – ―Being in Nature‖. The conference took place in August 2007. We have tried to categorize the papers in six different themes. The first category is ―Friluftsliv‖ and it opens with a paper written by Nils Faarlund, Norway. He is outlining the deep roots of the traditional Norwegian friluftsliv. The second theme is called ―Time and Space‖. In one of the papers Jay Griffiths describes ―Wild time‖ and how aboriginal peoples look upon time. We have called the third theme ―Identity‖ , but only one paper is represented in this category. Ingrid Urberg and Morten Asfeldt are writing about winter experiences in the North of Canada. The most comprehensive theme is our fourth: ―Nature conservation, education and politics‖. We look upon this to be very natural for a conference like this. The fifth cathegory is about ―Aesthetics‖ and the last cathegory discuss quality of life. It is often difficult to cathegorize the different papers. Most of them are linked together and could definitely be categorized in another way.

  • The Great Swedish Experiment
    Gong and Ratzkin: The Great Swedish Experiment The Dartmouth Undergraduate Journal of Politics, Economics, and World Affairs Volume. I, Issue. III, 53-90, June 2021 The Great Swedish Experiment XIAOFAN GONG & MICHAEL RATZKIN Cornell University ABSTRACT: As COVID-19 spread across Europe, many countries chose to implement swift and stringent lockdown measures on their populations in March 2020 by shutting down businesses and banning large public and private gatherings. Sweden, however, chose to manage the pandemic by relying on its citizens to make the best decisions for themselves and their families. This paper places Sweden’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic in a political and economic context. The paper also analyzes the country’s response and effectiveness in implementing voluntary and stepwise actions. Research finds that although measures taken to slow transmission while accounting for efforts to preserve the economy did not come close to achieving their medical goal, whether refraining from a shutdown was enough to save the economy in a significant way is less clear. “Of all the words of mice and men, the saddest are, ‘It might have been.’” ― Kurt Vonnegut, from Cat’s Cradle, 1963 Introduction On November 16th, 2020, after months of refusing to legally lockdown the country, Swedish Prime Minister Stefan Löfven announced that strict bans on public gatherings of more than 8 people would be implemented in response to the dramatic rise in coronavirus cases in the fall. Noting that these measures are the most invasive in modern Sweden, Löfven hoped to send a clear message to the public on the need for social distancing.

  • Fulfilling the Promise ... Noel D. Broadbent
    25 Fulfilling the Promise. An Essay on Swedish Archaeology and Archaeology in Sweden Noel D. Broadbent This paper presents a vision of archaeology in Sweden intended to transcend traditional Nordic and Euroamerican perspectives and build on the potentials of Swedish diversity and geography. Sweden is viewed as the northwestern corner of Eurasia and a meeting ground of long- term European and circumpolar cultural and environmental forces. As a player in world archaeology, Sweden can make major contributions to the growth of new theoretical and methodological perspectives in- corporating western and non-western lindigenous) ways of knowing. The subject of archaeology is undergoing post-national reformation and must redefine its institutions, better assert its public roles and clarify its message to achieve its full promise. Noel D. Broadbent, Department ofArchaeologv and Saami Studies, Umeå Universitv, SE-901 87 Umeå, Sweden. Key words: Nordic archaeology, Circumpolar, northernness, ways of knowing, diversity, education, skills. INTRODUCTION I have been asked to present some personal reflections on Swedish archaeology and the directions the subject is taking towards the future. The theme "Sweden, Scandinavia and the World" is an opportunity to comment on both Swedish archaeology and education, and Sweden as a place to do archaeology. These are not necessarily the same thing. I hope I can give a balanced insider and outsider perspective. The first part of this essay relates to the field of archaeology in general and the trends and forces shaping the discipline today. Secondly, I wish to project a vision which I believe represents a major potential of archaeology in Sweden. My research vision is the result of a realization about Swedish geography.
