The way that Sweden addressed its economic challenges provides valuable insight into the viability of large welfare states, and more broadly, into the way modern economies deal with crisis.. Among the issues investigated are the way changes in the labor market, tax and benefit policies, local government policy, industrial structure, and international trade affected Sweden's recovery. Over the course of the twentieth century, Sweden carried out one of the most ambitious experiments by a capitalist market economy in developing a large and active welfare state. Sweden's generous social programs and the economic equality they fostered became an example for other countries to emulate. At that time economists heatedly debated whether the welfare state caused Sweden's crisis and should be reformed—a debate with clear parallels to current concerns over capitalism. Bringing together leading economists, Reforming the Welfare State examines Sweden's policies in response to the mid-1990s crisis and the implications for the subsequent recovery. Of late, Sweden has also been much discussed as a model of how to deal with financial and economic crisis, due to the country's reThink of it as trader medicine: it might taste like crap but it is good for you.

(Here, Kane presents Ringo's lack of an indoor privy as unique; in fact, Paul did not have one until he was a teenager and George probably didn't have one either as a child.) Also, I got the impression that Kane pretty much took the part of everyone he interviewed, so that if he had happened to interview a different set of people, the book's perspective would have been totally differBirgitta Swedenborg is research director of the Center for Business and Policy Studies in Sweden.
