For some, Sweden is proof that a generous welfare state is fully compatible with a growing competitive economy. For others, it is a frightening example of what big government can do to a once thriving economy. Sweden and the Revival of the Capitalist Welfare State tackles a number of controversial questions regarding Sweden's economic and political development: How did Sweden become rich? How did Sweden become egalitarian? Why has Sweden since the early 90s grown faster than the U...

In virtually all popular indices and scales measuring bribery and dishonesty on a national level, Sweden performs strongly with its quality of rule of law and absence of corruption.

By extensively reviewing existing research and consulting various sources of data, the authors of “A Clean House?” attempt to unpack the Swedish case. What do we know about corruption in Sweden, and what can be...

Men vill vi förstå - och kunna motverka - denna process måste vi söka oss bortom de vanliga uppdelningarna mellan vänster och höger och mellan stat och marknad.

»Otrygga jobb«, säger vänstern. »Ovärdiga jobb«, svarar den konservativa högern. Men gigekonomin är här för att stanna.

There is a clear trend in rich countries that, despite rising incomes and living standards, the gap between rich and poor is widening. What does this mean for our health? Does increasing income inequality affect outcomes such as obesity, life expectancy and subjective well-being? Are rich and poor groups affected in the same ways?

The symposium brought together established researchers who have made important contributions involving triangul...

"L'uomo chiude a chiave la porta dietro di loro, la afferra per la vita e la attira a sé, muovendo la mano lungo l'interno della coscia. Le basta questo per accendersi. Si solleva la gonna e si tira giù le calze poi lascia che l'uomo la faccia piegare sopra il lavabo e le afferri i glutei, sfiorandole le grandi labbra con due dita, sfregandole il clitoride. L'eccitazione le divampa in tutto il corpo come un incendio." – "L'estraneo", Katja SlonawskiL'apertura di un nuovo bar fa ris...

"E tenevo il suo uccello tra le mani. Lo masturbavo alternando movimenti veloci e lenti. Mi inumidii le dita, accarezzai il suo cazzo e toccai la punta , lo guardavo diventare bagnato e viscido.
