"The Labor Movement in Sweden had a greater impact on the nature of Sweden's twentienth-century development than was the case in most other democratic societies. Creating Social Democracy is a fresh attempt by a diverse group of scholars—economists, historians, political scientists, and sociologists—to understand the influences of the Social Democrats on Sweden. Each scholar brings his or her own expertise and perspective to an important area of the Social Democratic experience. Creating Social Democracy should serve as an excellent entry port for students of comparative politics and society, who wish to begin serious study of the development of the Swedish Welfare State." : —Steven S. Koblik, President, Reed College
