ENDNOTES
An earlier version of this article was presented to the Aspen
Institute semoinar, "The Nordic Countries: Past, Present and Future,"
Saltsjöbaden, Sweden, June 16-19, 1982. I am much indebted to Greta Frankel for
her contribution to this rewriting.

2There may be a reaction in the late eighties to the individualism and privatization of the Karlsson generation not unlike the reaction of the thirties against the ”roaring twenties”. At that time, the reaction was (1) antiliberal, putting collective and national interests over individual; (2) antiproletarian and antiplutocratic, honoring hard work and pushing for an aristocracy of achievement; (3) antidemocratic, taking public stands through action and demonstrations rather than through secret ballots, in the belief that a brotherhood of corporate interests with strong will and faith was necessary to bring order out of chaos. Mikael Karlsson has no sense of this.
