Erik Lundberg Studies in Economic Instability and Change
This selection of Lundberg's writings, from a career comprising more than five decades, begins with his first work, his licentiate thesis of 1930, and ends with his last publication written shortly before his death in 1987. Thirty-seven essays, reviews and other texts offer access for the first time to previously unpublished manuscripts, many of which document Lundberg's early work at Stockholm University during the 1920s and as a Rockefeller fellow in the United States during the 1930s.In addition to his significant contributions to macroeconomic theory, this anthology shows convincingly that Lundberg's posthumous fame derives from his strong performance in applied economics as a critic and adviser on policy problems. Lundberg emerges here as both a prudent and provocative commentator on the paradoxes and policy dilemmas relating to the "rise and fall" of the Swedish Model.

The Dilemmas of Social Democracies
The Dilemmas of Social Democracies seeks to advance the eradication of poverty and the ethical construction of social democracy and sustainable peace. Howard Richards and Joanna Swanger argue that the reason that capitalism resists transformation and that social democracy is so hard to achieve is because of the philosophical and institutional underpinnings-the constitutive rules-of capitalism; the book therefore explores the historical origins of these rules, their implications for blocking progress toward social justice, and how they can be improved.
