Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This study deals with questions about national identity and national consciousness in Sweden from the middle of the 17th to the second half of the 18th century. Two embracing hypotheses have guided the inquiry. The first proposes that a clearly distinguishable national sentiment existed in Sweden already by the middle of the 17th century. The second proposes that the rulers tried to encourage and distribute this national consciousness to the lower echelons of society in order to obtain a less arbitrary rule over the subjects. The core of the investigation consists of five thematically and chronologically supplementing studies (chapters 2–6) that seeks to confirm these hypotheses.Chapter 1 defines the problem and outlines methodological and theoretical themes. Chapter 2 examines the composition of the Swedish empire during the Age of Greatness, the Crown's integration policy towards its foreign provinces, as well as the subjects' personal bonds to the Crown before the birth of modern citizenship. Chapter 3 investigates the national rethoric of Swedish propaganda during the Great Nordic War. Chapter 4 is mainly concentrated on the 18th century and investigates what content was given to the Swedish national character in a cultural and scholarly context. Chapter 5 examines the same topics with regard to the Finns as subjects of the Swedish realm. This chapter also surveys official and semi-official attitudes towards the 'Lapps' (Samis). Chapter 6 examines the political use of concepts such as patriotism and love of the Fatherland, first in a scholarly and theoretical context, and secondly in the vivid parliamental debates about civil rights that concluded the Age of Liberty. The last chapter summarizes the case studies and interprets the results in relation to dominant theoretical conceptions regarding nationalism. In this context it is argued that the national sentiments and the political use that was made of them during the period under investigation only differed in a quantitative, though not in a qualitative way from nationalist ideologies of the 19th century.

- This study investigates the prior conditions for and content of political radicalism at the end of the Swedish Age of Liberty (1719–1772). In the first part of the article it is argued that, over the course of time, shifts in the balance of power between the different organs of government and in the interpretation of constitutional documents shaped a parliamentary and republican practice that provided what at the time were unique opportunities for political reforms. The radicalism, that became particularly evident in the 1760s was neither homogenous nor did it achieve hegemony, but its social foundation and dissemination have never been properly investigated. Nevertheless, it seems clear that it gained ever growing support among the common estates, cutting across former boundaries between the political parties.In the second part of the article, an analytical tool for political and social classification is proposed in which five issues are regarded as central to the radicals. They maintained: (1) that legislative and executive power was restrained by the will of the People; (2) that all citizens formed part of the legislative body and should be able to elect their representatives on equal terms; (3) that merit, not descent, should have precedence in all official appointments; (4) that social privileges should be abolished and that all citizens should have equal standing before the law; and (5) that the state should maintain law and order but otherwise intervene as little as possible in people’s lives. In a broader analysis, these five criteria should be handled in an ideal-typical manner. They seem to have formed the core of the radical agenda, although different solutions were put forward by different politicians on each and every issue.The third part of this essay briefly discusses the possible uniqueness of the Swedish experience. Besides political developments, there were also conceptual and social factors behind the turn to radicalism. These were part of a general European trend, however, as were many of the specific ideas advanced. But the Swedish parliamentary system, it is argued, in which the three common estates could outvote the nobility, provided unique opportunities to realize the radical agenda. The step-by-step abolition of aristocratic precedence and the propagation of civil and human rights was still in progress when king Gustav III staged his coup d’état in 1772 and managed to restore royal power. The nobility, which had generally been among the king’s most ardent opponents during the Age of Liberty, now supported the monarch in order to salvage their privileges. Within a couple of decades, however, under the sheer force of social and political upheaval, the king had to reintroduce many of the progressive reforms he had abolished at the beginning of his reign.
