Politik i den moderna staten är till stor del en fråga om organisation. Den offentliga förvaltningens organisationsform spelar därför en betydelsefull roll för vår förståelse av politik. Detta har särskilt kommit att uppmärksammas inom områden som välfärds- och utbildningspolitik samt på senare tid även vad gäller frågor om fattigdomsbekämpning i utvecklingsländer. Frågor om förvaltningsapparatens legitimitet, om styrning och kontroll av förvaltningen, och hur förvaltningen genomför politiska beslut utgör centrala problem i såväl utvecklingsländer som i de välmående demokratierna. Inom många politikområden är det en öppen fråga var den offentliga makten faktiskt är belägen: hos politikerna, hos internationella och centrala tjänstemän eller hos de lokala tjänstemän som direkt möter medborgarna?Politik som organisation är en uppskattad lärobok som nu ges ut i en sjunde omarbetad upplaga. I denna upplaga har bland annat ett kapitel om etik i offentlig förvaltning tillkommit. Boken, som ger en problemorienterad översikt över ett antal områden inom den statsvetenskapliga analysen av den offentliga förvaltningen, är tänkt som en introduktion i ämnet.Sjunde upplagan

Sedan några årtionden är både liberalism och socialism på stark tillbakagång och utsatta för hård kritik – ofta från nya och oväntade håll. Den svenska demokratin har kommit på obestånd. I sin första populärvetenskapliga bok ger Bo Rothstein läsaren ett noga underbyggt förslag, det han kallar liberal socialism: en väg bort från en fruktans politik i riktning mot mellanmänsklig tillit som grund för ett demokratiskt samhälle – och en demokratisk ekonomi. Tanken är lika klar som radikal: Liberalismens löfte om respekt för individens autonomi och socialismens löfte om social och ekonomisk rättvisa borde kunna ta varandra i hand.

This book presents a radically new approach of how societies can bring corruption under control. Since the late 1990s, the detrimental effects of corruption to human well-being have become well established in research. This has resulted in a stark increase in anti-corruption programs launched by international organizations such as the World Bank, the African Union, the EU, as well as many national development organizations. Despite these efforts, evaluations of the effects of these anti-corruption programs have been disappointing. As it can be measured, it is difficult to find substantial effects from such anti-corruption programs. The argument in this book is that this huge policy failure can be explained by three factors. Firstly, it argues that the corruption problem has been poorly conceptualized since what should count as the opposite of corruption has been left out. Secondly, the problem has been located in the wrong social spaces. It is neither a cultural nor a legal problem. Instead, it is for the most part located in what organization theory defines as the 'standard operating procedures' in social organizations. Thirdly, the general theory that has dominated anti-corruption efforts -- the principal-agent theory -- is based on serious misspecification of the basic nature of the problem. The book presents a reconceptualization of corruption and a new theory -- drawing on the tradition of the social contract - to explain it and motivate policies of how to get corruption under control. Several empirical cases serve to underpin this new theory ranging from the historical organization of religious practices to specific social policies, universal education, gender equality, and auditing. Combined, these amount to a strategic theory known as 'the indirect approach'.

Recent research demonstrates that the quality of public institutions is crucial for a number of important environmental, social, economic, and political outcomes, and thereby human well-being. The Quality of Government (QoG) approach directs attention to issues such as impartiality in the exercise of public power, professionalism in public service delivery, effective measures against corruption, and meritocracy instead of patronage and nepotism.This Handbook offers a comprehensive, state-of-the-art overview of this rapidly expanding research field and also identifies viable avenues for future research. The initial chapters focus on theoretical approaches and debates, and the central question of how QoG can be measured. A second set of chapters examines the wealth of empirical research on how QoG relates to democratization, social trust and cohesion, ethnic diversity, happiness and human wellbeing, democratic accountability, economic growth and inequality, political legitimacy, environmental sustainability, gender equality, and the outbreak of civil conflicts. The remaining chapters turn to the perennial issue of which contextual factors and policy approaches—national, local, and international—have proven successful (and not so successful) for increasing QoG.The Quality of Government approach both challenges and complements important strands of inquiry in the social sciences. For research about democratization, QoG adds the importance of taking state capacity into account. For economics, the QoG approach shows that in order to produce economic prosperity, markets need to be embedded in institutions with a certain set of qualities. For development studies, QoG emphasizes that issues relating to corruption are integral to understanding development writ large.
Quality of Government

The relationship between government, virtue, and wealth has held a special fascination since Aristotle, and the importance of each frames policy debates today in both developed and developing countries. While it's clear that low-quality government institutions have tremendous negative effects on the health and wealth of societies, the criteria for good governance remain far from clear. In this pathbreaking book, leading political scientist Bo Rothstein provides a theoretical foundation for empirical analysis on the connection between the quality of government and important economic, political, and social outcomes. Focusing on the effects of government policies, he argues that unpredictable actions constitute a severe impediment to economic growth and development - and that a basic characteristic of quality government is impartiality in the exercise of power. This is borne out by cross-sectional analyses, experimental studies, and in-depth historical investigations. Timely and topical, "The Quality of Government" tackles such issues as political legitimacy, social capital, and corruption.

Just Institutions Matter
The Moral and Political Logic of the Universal Welfare State

In this book Bo Rothstein seeks to defend the universal welfare state against a number of important criticisms which it has faced in recent years. He combines genuine philosophical analysis of normative issues concerning what the state ought to do with empirical political scientific research in public policy examining what the state can do. Issues discussed include the relationship between welfare state and civil society, the privatization of social services, and changing values within society. His analysis centres around the importance of political institutions as both normative and empirical entities, and Rothstein argues that the choice of such institutions at certain formative moments in a country's history is what determines the political support for different types of social policy. He thus explains the great variation among contemporary welfare states in terms of differing moral and political logics which have been set in motion by the deliberate choices of political institutions. The book is an important contribution to both philosophical and political debates about the future of the welfare state.

A 'social trap' is a situation where individuals, groups or organisations are unable to cooperate owing to mutual distrust and lack of social capital, even where cooperation would benefit all. Examples include civil strife, pervasive corruption, ethnic discrimination, depletion of natural resources and misuse of social insurance systems. Much has been written attempting to explain the problem, but rather less material is available on how to escape it. In this book, Bo Rothstein explores how social capital and social trust are generated and what governments can do about it. He argues that it is the existence of universal and impartial political institutions together with public policies which enhance social and economic equality that creates social capital. By introducing the theory of collective memory into the discussion, Rothstein makes an empirical and theoretical claim for how universal institutions can be established.

Social Democratic State
The Swedish Model and the Bureaucratic Problem of Social Reforms

The Swedish Social Democratic Party, the SAP, is the most successful social democratic party in the world. It has led the government for most of the last six decades, participating either alone or as the dominant force in coalition government. The SAP has also worked closely with trade unions that have organized nearly 85 percent of the labor force, the highest rate among the advanced industrial democracies. Rarely has a political party been so dominant or so closely linked to labor movement. Yet Sweden remains very much a capitolist society with economic and social power firmly in the hands of big capitol.If one wants to know if politics, and most especially if reformist politics, matters - if, that is, political mobilization can change democratic capitolists societies - then Sweden under the Social Democrats is clearly one of the best empirical cases to study.Bo Rothstein uses the Swedish experience to analyze the limits a social democratic government labors under and the possibilities it enjoys in using the state to implement large-scale social change. He examines closely two SAP programs, one a success and the other a failure, that attempted to change social processes deeply embedded in capitolist society. He ties the outcomes of these programs to the structure of the state and hypothesizes that the outcome depends, to a considerable extent, on how administrative apparatuses responsible for implementing each policy are organized. Rothstein concludes that no matter how wisely a reformist policy is designed nor how strong the political party behind it, if the administrative arrangements are faulty, it will fail at the stage of implementation.Rothstein convincingly demonstrates that the democratic capitolist countries of the world have important lessons to learn from the Swedish experience regarding the possibilities for political reform. Political scientists and political reformers alike can learn much from RothsteinÆs deep knowledge of Swedish government and his innovative model for analyzing political reform in social democratic societies.

In all societies, the quality of government institutions is of the utmost importance for the well-being of its citizens. Problems like high infant mortality, lack of access to safe water, unhappiness and poverty are not primarily caused by a lack of technical equipment, effective medicines or other types of knowledge generated by the natural or engineering sciences. Instead, the critical problem is that the majority of the world s population live in societies that have dysfunctional government institutions. Central issues discussed in the book include: how can good government be conceptualized and measured, what are the effects of 'bad government' and how can the quality of government be improved? Good Government will prove invaluable for students in political science, public policy and public administration. Researchers in political science and the social sciences, as well as policy analysts working in government, international and independent policy organizations will also find plenty to interest them in this resourceful compendium.

In this book the authors tackle the concept of 'quality of government' (QoG) both conceptually and empirically and apply their focus to EU countries and regions. In a pioneering empirical effort, they map out regional QoG for the first time for 172 NUTS 1 and 2 regions throughout 18 countries in the EU, and provide a detailed methodology. They follow up the quantitative assessment with three case studies demonstrating the wide variation of QoG found within the countries of Italy, Belgium and Romania. The book concludes with important lessons and ideas for future research.Quality of Government and Corruption from a European Perspective will offer a unique insight to an important issue of development within the EU that speaks to students and academics in the field of comparative politics, EU politics, development, governance and corruption.With contributions from: Lewis Dijkstra, Jonas Håkansson and Oana Borcan

Corruption is a serious threat to prosperity, democracy and human well-being, with mounting empirical evidence highlighting its detrimental effects on society. Yet defining this threat has resulted in profound disagreement, producing a multidimensional concept. Tackling this important and provocative topic, the authors provide an accessible and systematic analysis of how our understanding of corruption has evolved. They identify gaps in the research and make connections between related concepts such as clientelism, patronage, patrimonialism, particularism and state capture. A fundamental issue discussed is how the opposite of corruption should be defined. By arguing for the possibility of a universal understanding of corruption, and specifically what corruption is not, an innovative solution to this problem is presented. This book provides an accessible overview of corruption, allowing scholars and students alike to see the far reaching place it has within academic research.

Beneficial social and economic exchange relies on a certain level of trust. But trust is a delicate matter, not least in the former socialist countries where illegitimate behaviour by governments made distrust a habit. The chapters in this volume analyze the causes and the effects of the lack of social trust in post socialist countries. The contributions originated in the Collegium Budapest project on Honesty and Trust: Theory and Experience in the Light of the Post Socialist Transition. A second volume entitled, Building a Trustworthy State in Post Socialist Transition, is being published simultaneously.

Political corruption is a problem as old as society itself. As a fixture of political science and related disciplines, however, it is new and rapidly-developing, having only received very modest coverage until the late 1990s. The recent shattering of the taboo surrounding the discussion of corruption, largely attributed to its re-definition as an economic problem, has resulted in a torrent of new material on the subject. The most important of this has been brought together in this interrogative and authoritative collection.This book, including an original introduction by Professor Bo Rothstein, assembles the best papers in the field into a comprehensive examination of political corruption and will be an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the subject.

Denna bok är resultatet av ett samhällsvetenskapligt forskningsprojekt om de policyprofessionella i svensk politik. Med detta begrepp avses aktörer inom den politiska sfären som inte är förtroendevalda utan anställda för att bedriva politik, till exempel som politiskt sakkunniga, politiska sekreterare, pressekreterare, PR-konsulter och utredare på fackförbund och tankesmedjor. Dessa aktörer har ökat kraftigt i antal under de senaste decennierna, och deras inflytande har också vuxit sig allt större. Titeln Makt utan mandat syftar på att det är mycket oklart på vilka grunder som denna grupp utövar politisk makt och inflytande. Analysen är den första i sitt slag som tar ett helhetsgrepp om denna nya sociala och politiska kategori. Boken bygger på ett omfattande och unikt intervjumaterial samt en kartläggning av denna växande och för de flesta människor osynliga grupp politiska aktörer. Christina Garsten är professor i socialantropologi, Bo Rothstein professor i statsvetenskap och Stefan Svallfors professor i sociologi.

Bo Rothstein är idag en av Sveriges ledande statsvetare. Hans avhandling, Den socialdemokratiska staten, blev startskottet för hans tre uppmärksammade arbeten om den moderna staten. I denna bok, som Arkiv förlag nu återutger, finns utgångspunkten för såväl Den korporativa staten som det mer programmatiska arbetet Vad bör staten göra? I Den socialdemokratiska staten tar sig Rothstein an två olika politikområden: skolan och arbetsmarknaden. Han ser Arbetsmarknadsstyrelsen som en socialdemokratisk reformbyråkrati, präglad av en kaderförvaltning och befolkad av tjänstemän med rötter i fackföreningar och arbetarrörelse. Jämfört med AMS är skolans byråkrati, förkroppsligad i Skolöverstyrelsen, mer traditionell. Dessa två slags förvaltningsapparater gav socialdemokratin radikalt olika möjligheter att genomdriva sina politiska mål, framgångsrikt ifråga om arbetsmarknaden och mindre framgångsrikt i skolans fall. Rothstein visar att politik inte bara är att vilja utan också att ha verktyg för att kunna genomföra.

Soon, Cities of Power: The Urban, the National, the Popular, and the Global by Göran Therborn will be on the market. In between Science, Class and Society (1976) and The Killing Fields of Inequality (2013, Swedish translation: Ojämlikhet dödar, 2016) Göran has consistently challenged received wisdom in politics and the social sciences. His Between Sex and Power (2004) is the current global map of family relations and gender equality. With the 1968 article "From Petrograd to Saigon" he laid the foundation for his worldwide reputation as an innovative public intellectual. His critique of the Frankfurt School had repercussions around Europe. Today his work is spread across six continents, Latin America in particular, and has been translated into more than twenty languages.
This book is a critical appraisal of the themes Göran Therborn has pursued up till now, and is introduced by Robin Blackburn, for almost twenty years his editor at New Left Review.
"Göran's continual alertness to different paths to or through modernity, and to varieties of capitalism, will very soon be tested in a dramatic way." - Ian Gough, London School of Economics
"This is a very important project and Göran richly deserves it." - Michael Burawoy, UC Berkeley

Vad kommer människor i framtiden säga när de ser tillbaka på vår tid? Kommer de säga att vi var insiktsfulla och agerade långsiktigt? Eller kommer de säga att vi inte förstod? Att vi inte insåg vilka möjligheter som framtiden erbjöd? Kommer vi framstå som föredömen eller som avskräckande exempel? Svaren är så klart omöjliga att veta: hur det blir är upp till framtiden att avslöja. Samtidigt påverkas svaren av hur vi agerar i nuet. De formas av i vilken utsträckning vi har förmågan att identifiera vilka utmaningar och möjligheter som väntar och hur dessa bäst ska mötas. Den här boken handlar därför om olika framtida samhällsutmaningar som Sverige står inför inom områden som arbetsmarknad, demokrati, företagande, globalisering, integration, integritet, klimat och miljö, kultur, medier, omsorg och vård, politiskt ledarskap, religion, stadsplanering och utbildning. Tillsammans tecknar kapitlen en karta över det nya Sverige. Redaktör för boken är professor Jesper Strömbäck, huvudsekreterare i regeringens Framtidskommission.

I denna antologi skriver några av landets främsta experter, debattörer och författare om äldrevården, ekonomin, sjukvården, de offentliga styrsystemen och en rad andra ämnen som stått i centrum för debatten.
