Synopsis

""The Politics of Compromise: A Study of Parties and Cabinet Government in Sweden"" by Dankwart Alexander Rustow is a comprehensive analysis of the Swedish political system, focusing on the role of political parties and the functioning of cabinet government. The book explores the historical development of Swedish politics, from the emergence of party politics in the late 19th century to the present day, and examines the various factors that have shaped the country's political culture and institutions. Rustow provides a detailed account of the Swedish party system, including the origins and ideologies of the major parties, their electoral strategies, and their relationships with each other and with the government. He also analyzes the workings of the Swedish cabinet system, including the selection of ministers, the distribution of portfolios, and the decision-making processes within the cabinet. Throughout the book, Rustow emphasizes the importance of compromise and consensus-building in Swedish politics, and argues that these values have been essential to the stability and effectiveness of the country's political system. He also explores the challenges facing Swedish democracy in the modern era, including the rise of populist movements and the increasing influence of the European Union. Overall, ""The Politics of Compromise"" provides a comprehensive and insightful analysis of the Swedish political system, and will be of interest to scholars, students, and anyone interested in the workings of democratic politics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

How is it that Sweden has been able to combine political stability with an entrenched multiparty system? How is it that she has produced such remarkable achievements in economic policy, social welfare, labor relations, and international cooperation? In this first comprehensive study of Swedish parties and cabinet government in English the author examines the delicate yet effective means of compromise worked out by the political parties. The first three chapters are a concise history of Swedish politics, from the time when the parliament consisted of four estates to the present, while the succeeding chapters give a systematic account of the four groups responsible for representative government in Sweden: the electorate, parties, legislature, and cabinet. Originally published in 1955.
