Notes	First published 1993 by Routledge Includes bibliographical references and index The impact of Swedish economists on the development of modern economic analysis has been profound. This volume contains twelve essays dealing with various aspects of the development of economics and economic thought from the mid-eighteenth century to the middle of the twentieth century. Most of the essays cover the golden age of Swedish economics, the early decades of the twentieth century, and deal with such figures as Knut Wicksell, Gustav Cassel, Eli Heckscher, Bertil Ohlin, Erik Lindahl and Erik Lundberg. It illustrates the constant involvement of Swedish economists in current affairs. Economists have taken an active part in practically every debate of importance in Sweden since the turn of the century. Those discussed here include the 8-hour workday, the New Economics of the 1930s and forestry economics. Economists in Sweden have had a significant impact on public affairs and public debate--perhaps stronger than in any other country. The book accounts for this in terms of the consistency of their attempts to make public contributions. The book also includes a chapter on an unpublished manuscript of Knut Wicksell's, which is reproduced in English for the first time HTTP:URL=https://www.routledgehistoricalresources.com/economic-thought/books/swedish-economic-thought
