Media Reviews
the Handbook is a most welcome - and sorely needed - contribution. An impressively heavy, well-presented and organised tome, it paints a rich tapestry of Sweden's past and contemporary political and constitutional settlement - from the dawn of the exceptional Swedish model through to its present (alleged) twilight as a beacon of prosperity and equality. * Carl Truedsson, LSE Review of Books *
