However as the Swedish Social Democratic Party (SAP) embarked on its Third Way in 1981, this outlook on social policy as a productive investment was replaced by the identification of social policy as a cost and a burden for growth. This book discusses the components of this ideological turnaround from Swedish social democracy's post-war notion of a strong societyCritical labour movement studies series.SocialismSwedenElectronic books.Socialism320.5315330.12609485Andersson Jenny975900Key Mireille L975901MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910465655703321Between growth and security2222311UNINA
