Structural Change in the Swedish economy in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century - The role of import substitution and export demand

• The paper presents input-output tables for the Swedish economy for 1885, 1898 and 1913. These tables are used to explore structural change and to decompose Swedish economic growth in 1885-1898 and 1898-1913 into different demand sources: exports, import substitution and home market growth. While the 1890's was a decade of import substitution export demand was always important and a much more important source of demand growth than import substitution after the turn of the century 1900
