Abstract
Since the late 1960's Sweden has instituted numerous work-place reforms that have substantially increased the individual and collective rights of labor. In recent years, the Federation of Labour and the Social Democratic party have authored an ambitious and controversial blueprint for further transformation in the form of a collective system of wage-earner funds. Professors Hancock and Logue observe that the reforms already implemented have socialized many functions of management, more so than in any other industrial democracy. The implementation of the wage-earner fund system in 1984 comprises an additional move toward economic democracy.Keywords
