From state railway housekeeping to railway economics: Swedish railway policy and economic transformation after 1920 in an institutional perspective
Umeå University, Faculty of Social Sciences, Department of Economic History.
1996 (English)In: Scandinavian Economic History Review, ISSN 0358-5522, E-ISSN 1750-2837, Vol. 44, no 1, p. 23-42Article in journal (Refereed) Published
Abstract [en]

In this article the development of Swedish railway policy in the twentieth century is interpreted as a process of institutional change where the effects of real economic development are filtered through the railway's established institutional framework. The change in railway policy is seen as a result of an economic historical process where the industrialisation era's conception of the role of railways in society survives in institutional arrangements, and marks the railways adjustment to present-day economic and soical conditons.
