520 $aIf one wants to know if politics, and most especially if reformist politics, matters - if, that is, political mobilization can change democratic capitalist societies - then Sweden under the Social Democrats is clearly one of the best empirical cases to study.
520 8 $aBo Rothstein uses the Swedish experience to analyze the limits a social democratic government labors under and the possibilities it enjoys in using the state to implement large-scale social change. He examines closely two SAP programs, one a success and the other a failure, that attempted to change social processes deeply embedded in capitalist society.
520 8 $aHe ties the outcomes of these programs to the structure of the state and hypothesizes that the outcome depends, to a considerable extent, on how administrative apparatuses responsible for implementing each policy are organized. Rothstein concludes that no matter how wisely a reformist policy is designed nor how strong the political party behind it, if the administrative arrangements are faulty, it will fail at the stage of implementation.
