The fact that the recently elected Swedish government is a right-wing one that relies on a neo-/postfascist party, the Sweden democrats, to govern has really radicalized me. Or at least strongly reinforced my conviction that we need to abolish capitalism. I live in Sweden and I’m honestly afraid what might happen. So I started thinking a lot, about what lead up to this point. So here is a history lesson.
The fact this happened in Sweden is illustrative of social democracy’s failure to control capitalism. The Swedish social democratic party governed the country uninterrupted from 1932 to 1976. Sweden stands out even in the social democratic dominated nordic countries because of this. Probably no other state is as thoroughly formed by the idea of social democracy. And social democracy in the modern sense that notion capitalism can be reformed to be more humane. Social democratic parties started as marxist and socialist, but gradually abandoned the idea of abolishing capitalism in favour of reforming it. Instead they turned to Keynesianism. Keynes agreed with Marx that capitalism tended towards crisis, but argued that state intervention could correct for the boom and bust cycle of the free capitalist market. And this enabled social democrats to reject the marxist idea that capitalism was doomed to failure. Instead capitalism should work to provide shared prosperity.
Instead of class struggle, the social democrats advocated class collaboration, between workers and capitalists. And in Sweden this sort of inter-class agreement was literally formalized in the famous Saltsjöbaden agreement of 1938 in which the government created an accord between the association of the major labour unions and the employers association.
Part of the reason Sweden and the other nordic countries became a role model for social democracy was that they started implementing such reforms early in comparison to the rest of Europe. Particularly interesting is that Swedish economists in the Stockholm school had ideas that anticipated Keynes’s 1936 General Theory by several years. This inspired Ernst Wigforss, the social democratic finance minister of Sweden in the 1930s and 40s, to suggest and implement proto-keynesian ideas as early as 1932. He argued that state deficit spending could save Sweden from the great depression. And it worked, up to a point.
The emerging nordic model became a subject of international discussion. Yet Sweden for some reason stood among the other nordic countries, as exemplified by American Journalist Marquis Childs who wrote a book called Sweden: The Middle Way, published in 1936. It was widely read, including by FDR. Childs saw Sweden as presenting an ideal middle way between the laissez-faire capitalism that caused the great depression and soviet-state socialism. Of course his analysis was wrong, Sweden was and is still capitalist, workers don’t control the means of production. Any meaningful definition of socialism isn’t ���when the government does stuff”. Yet Childs was a major influence on the foreign and American views of Sweden.
And in the post-war world, the ideals of social democracy and keynesian economics spread far beyond Scandinavia and even the social democratic parties. People had lived through the great depression, the rise of fascism and the resulting world war, and wanted at all cost to avoid repeating that experience. This was fertile ground for keynesian economics and the social democratic welfare state to become dominant ideas. It was thought that with keynesian economic policies and the welfare state, we wouldn’t have major crises causing massive poverty and a collapse into fascism. This view extended far beyond formal social democrats, and these policies were adopted by liberals and conservatives as well. There existed a kind of post-war consensus that this was the best way to govern capitalism.
And during the 1945-1973 boom period for the western world, it seemed to work. The western economy went through a sustained growth period recovering from the Great Depression and WWII. Strong labour unions, full employment, progressive taxation and the welfare state did ensure that the wealth created was shared by the wider population to an unprecedented degree.
Yet that period of recovery growth would eventually naturally exhaust itself. Furthermore, the growth was based on oil, and the 1973 oil crisis brought it to an end. An economic crisis begun. Keynesianism proved unable to prevent this crisis, and the mix of inflation and recession that the 1970s crisis showed seemed to contradict its ideas.
By 1973, the old spectre of class struggle had reasserted itself, from both sides.
As proto-keynesian economist Michal Kalecki had predicted in 1943, the long period of full employment did remove the fear of unemployment among workers, making them more bold in demanding and fighting for higher wages and better conditions. So a new period of labour strife started in the late 1960s, including in Sweden, with the wild miners strike of 1969-70 being the beginning. Capitalism is traditionally dependent on a "reserve army of labour" and the threat of unemployment to keep workers disciplined, to make workers do what capitalists tell them to do. And with full employment that threat is gone, leading to labour making bolder demands.
And capitalists don't like that loss of their power. When the crisis of the 1970s happened, capitalists were no longer content to share their profits with the workers in the same way they had since 1945, since those profits were no longer growing. Capitalists are and were a small part of the population, but despite democracy their wealth enables them to influence society to further their own interests at the disadvantage of the majority. The rich used their wealth to fund and promote media and politicians and think thanks to create a new neoliberal policy regime to replace the keynesian welfare state one. And with modern technology (such as containerization) and loosened capital controls allowing for an unprecedented mobility of capital, capitalists were now able to punish governments who had too high taxes and strict labour laws for their liking by simply moving their capital somewhere else.
So the welfare state in western states were rolled back, and now is a shadow of its old self. The benefits still exist, but degrading means testing and meagre payments make getting on them a kafkaesque nightmare. Employment is often precarious and unemployment is deliberately kept high via monetarist means to keep workers disciplined.
People feel naturally discontent with this situation. And the right-wing is able to exploit by blaming immigrants or other minority groups (like trans people) for these problems, while it’s capitalism and their own neoliberal policies that have created them.
In Sweden specifically, the period of renewed labour struggle starting around 1969 actually led the Social Democratic government of Olof Palme to implement a wave of new reforms in an effort to placate the labour movement. The welfare state was strengthened as were labour rights.
Yet workers grew more radical. And in 1976 the main confederation of trade unions, LO, adopted a plan by social democratic economist Rudolf Meidner for the socialization of the means of production via "wage-earners funds". Basically capitalist profits would be taxed by the governments and put into funds controlled by the trade unions to buy shares of corporations. It was a gradualist means of achieving socialism. These ideas did not come from any outside radical forces, but were deeply rooted in the social democratic movement. LO was staunchly social democratic, the party viewed itself as its political wing and Meidner had designed the social democratic wage policy decades before. They had just moved back to the original idea of social democracy, of a reformist path to socialism.
The wage-earners funds created a massive debate. Even within the social democratic party it was opposed by the party's right-wing. Yet the party felt obligation towards the trade unions which it was meant to represent.
Outside the party, the reaction to the funds idea was even worse. Capitalists, themselves organized in an employers association (SAF), naturally saw the idea as a threat. The capitalists decided to use their wealth to conduct a massive political and advertising campaign against the Meidner funds plan, socialism and trade unions, and instead promote neoliberal ideas. The methods used were basically the same as in the neoliberal reaction in the western world as a whole. They used their money to fund politicians, media and even created a neoliberal think-thank (Timbro), all to promote policies which would be in their interest.
And it worked. The social democrats finally lost power in the 1976 election. While the resulting liberal-conservative government did not reallly do much neoliberal reforming of the economy it meant the end of social democratic political hegemony.
The Social democrats returned to power in 1982, but times had changed, the party was much less radical. They implemented a neutered version of the wage-earners funds that wouldn't socialize the economy. And the general economic policy was set by finance minister Kjell-Olof Feldt, who was on the right of the party and did some deregulations inspired by neoliberal economics.The social democrats lost power again in 1991, and the right-wing government really put the country on the same neoliberal path followed by the rest of the western world. Something that was largely continued by the social democrats when they again ruled in 1994-2006.
And the consequences of neoliberalism again were the same as in the western world. this created the conditions for the recent Swedish election, where the post-fascist party got 20 % of the votes.
Sweden is not alone in this development, but it’s a powerful illustration because it is idealized so often as a role model for social democracy. You can still see echoes of Marquis Childs in the recent rhetoric of Bernie Sanders about the nordic countries. Now it illustrates its failures. The social democratic reformers did meaningfully improve lives, and we should fight for those reforms, but they were not able to tame capitalism as they claimed. The capitalists still had their capital, their wealth and were thus able to strike back against those reforms, as the neoliberal revolutions from the 70s on proved. And while Swedish Social Democrats to their credit tried to move beyond capitalism, the Meidner plan also proves how gradualist and reformist attempt to achieve socialism give capitalists time to organize against them. The 1970-73 Allende Government's attempt in Chile is a darker example, as it lead to a right-wing coup and dictatorship.
Those reforms were only won by class struggle from the workers in the first place. Sweden is a very good example for that. It had a strong and highly organized working class, and labour relations were very volatile prior to the Saltsjöbaden agreement. In fact, the strong 1932 election result for the social democrats was partly due to popular outrage at the 1931 Ådalen shootings, when the military fired on striking demonstrating workers. It was this background of labour struggle that enabled the reforms in the first place. The same thing was true of the 1970s reforms.
Those contradictions in interest between workers and capitalists started to reassert themselves once the 1945-1973 growth period exhausted itself and such contradictions were apparent even before then, with a more militant working class in the years leading up to that moment.
When the old-school marxian economist Paul Mattick wrote in his classic book Marx and Keynes from 1969 that “the Keynesian solution to the economic problems that beset the capitalist world can be of only temporary avail, and that the conditions under which it can be effective are in the process of dissolution.” he was proven completely right only a few years later.
It’s sad that the left has not fully taken that to heart. It’s depressing that even supposed radical socialist politicians like Bernie Sanders and Jeremy Corbyn ran on mid-century social democratic platform where the basis is keynesian mixed-economy policies. Even the Left Party here in Sweden (that I’m a member of for lack of anything more viable) advocates what is basically mid-century social democracy.
We already know from experience that it doesn’t work, just like we know that soviet-style Stalinist “socialism” doesn’t work. If the flaws of the Soviet model are evident in Stalin and now Putin (and for that matter Mao and Deng), we can similarly judge social democracy by its present day results.
When even the social democratic model country of Sweden is in the beginning stages of a fascist revival, you can no longer argue that it’s a model that fixed capitalism’s problems."The Middle way" has reached its end.
And Sweden is just a particularly telling example. The pattern of neoliberal reversals of social democratic reforms leading to poverty and insecurity particularly in times of economic crisis and in turn inspires fascist revivals is common all over the western world. When your model leads to that kind of results, it’s proven to not work. The modern day social democrat is stuck arguing that we should turn back the clock to a time when their proposed solution hadn’t yet lead to these results.
And our ability to turn the clock back is limited. The material conditions, such as limited mobility of capital, that sustained social democracy’s glory days of 1945-73 doesn’t exist anymore. Why should we with our modern awareness of climate change even want to recreate the oil-driven growth of mid 20th century Europe?
The larger ecological crisis and climate change is further evidence that capitalism is unsustainable. And I think the only realistic solution at this point in time is the radical one: abolishing capitalism.

Ytterligare en vecka i arbetslöshetens tecken kan läggas till handlingarna. Det låter som en ganska tråkig vecka egentligen, eller hur?! Men jag har haft fullt upp, så fullt upp att jag fått tacka nej till saker eftersom de krockat med varandra. Jag har betat av två filminspelningar, ett möte med min chef på extrajobbet och sedan faktiskt varit bortrest torsdag till fredag. Eller bortrest och bortrest, vi har testat en natt på Grand hotell i Saltsjöbaden – så vi lämnade aldrig ens Stockholmsområdet och jag kunde med gott samvete räkna mig som tillgänglig för arbetsmarknaden medan jag fick en lyxig hotellvistelse. Lite lyx i vardagen måste man ju ha, även som arbetssökande. Enligt reglerna får jag inte resa utomlands hur som helst, men jag har inte hittat något i reglerna om säger att jag inte får röra mig inom Stockholms län. Och skulle en intervju dykt upp med kort varsel, så hade jag med lätthet kunna åtagit mig den eftersom avståndet var så litet.
Jag har helt enkelt fullt upp och kommande vecka är nästintill lika fullbokad, men anställningsintervju, filminspelning och barnvakteri. Givetvis vid sidan av att fortsätta söka jobb och vara aktiv på Arbetsförmedlingen.

Hélène Schjerfbeck (1862-1946) - Retrato de um homem
Helena Sofia (Helene) Schjerfbeck é uma pintora finlandesa. Criança prodígio, Helene Schjerfbeck ingressou na escola de desenho da Associação de Artes de Helsinque aos onze anos, cujas aulas foram pagas por Adolf von Becker, que reconheceu seu talento. Lá ela conheceu Helena Westermarck. Em 2 de fevereiro de 1876, o pai de Helene Schjerfbeck morreu de tuberculose e sua mãe alojou-se em pensionatos para garantir o sustento da família. Um ano depois, Helene se formou na escola de desenho da associação artística. Ela continuou seus estudos na escola particular de Adolf von Becker. O professor G. Asp pagou suas taxas de estudo e Adolf von Becker ensinou-lhe pessoalmente técnicas de pintura a óleo francesa. Em 1879, aos 17 anos, Helene Schjerfbeck ganhou o terceiro prémio num concurso organizado pela Associação Finlandesa de Artes. No final de 1880, graças a uma bolsa, continuou a sua formação académica em Paris, nas raras oficinas gratuitas abertas às mulheres, pintou com Helena Westermarck, depois seguiu os ensinamentos de Léon Bonnat na escola de Mme Trélat de Vigny . Em 1881 ela estudou novamente na academia Colarossi com Helena Westermarck. Em 1882 e 1884, expôs no salão parisiense da Champs-Élysées. Obtendo outra bolsa, passou alguns meses em Meudon e alguns outros em Concarneau. Ela retornou brevemente à Academia Colarossi antes de retornar à mansão da família Adlercreutz na Finlândia. Viajou para a Finlândia para pintar e estudar. Em 1884, ela voltou com Helena Westermarck para a academia Colarossi para lá trabalhar. Em 1887 ela foi para St Ives na Cornualha. Lá ela pintou "O Convalescente" que ganhou a medalha de bronze na Exposição Universal de Paris de 1889. Optou então por um naturalismo servido por grande virtuosismo técnico, obtendo sucesso precoce. Este período é marcado por inúmeras viagens: Bretanha, Inglaterra, Rússia, Itália. Na década de 1890, Helene Schjerfbeck lecionava regularmente na escola de desenho da associação de arte. Em 1901, Schjerfbeck ficou doente demais para lecionar e abandonou seu cargo em 1902. Ela então se mudou para Hyvinkää para cuidar de sua mãe. No final do século XIX, numa Finlândia que lutava pela independência, a sua recusa ao romantismo nacional, liderada por Akseli Gallen-Kallela, marginalizou-a. Os problemas de saúde desde a infância levaram-na a instalar-se em Hyvinkää, a cerca de cinquenta quilómetros de Helsínquia, de onde esteve ausente durante quinze anos. É neste isolamento desejado que desenvolve a sua própria linguagem, purificando a sua escrita com base no realismo a que se mantém fiel. Esta ascese pictórica baseia-se na atenção ao seu ambiente, pintando aqueles que a rodeiam, os trabalhadores da fábrica local ou mais tarde as enfermeiras do sanatório, paisagens e naturezas-mortas íntimas que são como tantas meditações ecoando os autorretratos onde, no final de sua vida, ela acompanha o progresso da idade, da doença e da aproximação da morte. Ela morreu no sanatório Saltsjöbaden, na Suécia, país onde se refugiou durante a Guerra de Continuação, o segundo conflito armado entre a Finlândia e a URSS.

3 september
Als er een hitparade zou bestaan van steden die ik bezocht heb zou Stockholm met superstip binnenkomen. Want wat is het heerlijk toeven in de Zweedse hoofdstad. De vrijdagochtend van de eerste september ging gepaard met gestaagd regenval maar 's middags was het nagenoeg droog en was het tijd om meer te ontdekken. Op naar Djurgården, één van de eilanden van Stockholm. Je kunt er een attractiepark bezoeken maar ook tal van musea, ook het drukst bezochte museum van Scandinavië ligt er…het Vasamuseum, gelukkig viel het met de drukte wel mee en was het aanschouwen van het Vasaschip goed te doen. Heel imponerend is het. En vele malen groter dan ik van te voren gedacht had. Het schip dat op 10 augustus 1628 bij de eerste vaart vanuit de Stockholmer haven al zonk, en meer dan driehonderd jaar tot 1961 op de bodem lag. Gelukkig is het al die tijd goed geconserveerd gebleven. Een hele prestatie trouwens om het zo tentoon te stellen. Het schip ligt op een kiel er daarna is het gebouw erom heen getrokken.
Tegen de avond dan nog een lekkere wandeling gemaakt van zo'n 7 kilometer, en in de wijk Kungsholmen (= Koningseiland) in de Fleminggatan een leuke bar gevonden voor een lekker biertje van een halve liter. De prijs? Nou ja, ik denk dat het bij ons het laatste jaar zo explosief gestegen is dat je hier voor dat bier en flesje cola denkt dat valt wel mee die € 10,-.
*
Op zaterdag eerst een kijkje genomen rond het stadhuis, en inderdaad vooral aan de toren kun je zien dat het Enschedese stadhuis op het Stockholmse geïnspireerd is. Over Enschede gesproken er is zelfs een stadsdeel in Stockholm en dat heet Enske, slechts de a valt weg bij de Twentse versie. En was het ook niet de Enschedese band Teach-in die in 1975 het Eurovisiesongfestival won? Toch aardig wat overeenkomsten. In de middag een grote boottocht gemaakt en daarna ergens boven in de city me te goed gedaan in een visrestaurant. Het was heel smakelijk de spicy salmon met verfrissende groenten erbij.
*
Zondag
Op de söndag hier wordt ook gewoon de vuilnis opgehaald en is alles open en toch ook bij mijn fietstocht door de stad oogt het allemaal relaxt. Vanaf het hotel kwam ik langs kantoren, gevold door een wijk die wel wat weg heeft van de Bijlmer. Husby. Volgens de Zweedse politieraporten de gevaarlijkste wijk van het land, maar ja op zondagochtend zal het toch wel niet zo'n vaart lopen. Zo‘n tien jaar geleden braken hier grootschalige rellen uit. De flats hier gebouwd in de jaren '60 waren toen heel geliefd. Zweden dat 150 jaar geleden nog één van de armste landen van de wereld was, beleefde net zoals vele andere landen kort na de Tweede Wereldoorlog een 'Wirtschaftswunder‘ van een zeer agrarisch land werd het in korte tijd een sterke economie, met uiteraard veel woningsnood. En hoewel nu één van de rijkste landen ter wereld is de keerzijde dat mensen aan de onderkant van de samenleving natuurlijk altijd in dit soort wijken komen te wonen. Uiteraard gebeurde er verder niets en kwam ik daarna langs 'gewone‘ huizen. Gevolgd door een meer, kronkelende straten waar in de tuinen van de huizen met houten luiken appelbomen staan en op de hoeken van de pleinen de mensen lekker gebak met koffie nemen en ijs, gigantisch veel ijs. Door het schitterende centrum en uiteindelijk de mooie weg naar het strand van Saltsjöbaden.
En dat bij een heerlijke temperatuur van zo'n 18 graden.

Helena Sofia (Helene) Schjerfbeck (1862-1946) pintora finlandesa.
Tumblr media
Conocida principalmente por sus obras realistas y autorretratos, aunque también realizó paisajes y bodegones. Nació en la ciudad costera de Ekenäs. A los 4 años cayó por las escaleras de la casa donde vivía y sufrió una lesión en la cadera que le impidió asistir a la escuela. Se considera esta como la probable causa de que comenzara a pintar, ya que además del tiempo de convalecencia que tuvo esta lesión, la misma la acompañaría toda la vida privándole de un estilo de vida físicamente activo.
Tumblr media
Desde muy corta edad mostró poseer un gran talento, y a los 11 años ingresó en la Sociedad Artística Finlandesa, una escuela de dibujo (Adolf von Becker pagó sus estudios allí). En esta escuela, Schjerfbeck conoció a Helena Westermarck, Maria Wiik y Ada Thilen, manteniendo las 4 artistas una estrecha amistad durante el resto de sus vidas.
Tumblr media
Cuando su padre murió de tuberculosis en 1876, su madre comenzó a alquilar habitaciones para conseguir dinero.
Tumblr media
Un año después Helena terminó sus estudios de dibujo, y siguió formándose en la academia privada de Adolf von Becker. El profesor G. Asp pagó sus gastos en esta academia.
Tumblr media
Con 17 años ganó el tercer premio en un concurso organizado por la Sociedad Artística Finlandesa, y en 1880 su trabajo se exhibió en una exposición anual de la misma. Ese verano, pasó un tiempo en una casa solariega propiedad de su tía materna. Allí pasó un tiempo dibujando y pintando a sus primas. Ese mismo año partió a París después de recibir una beca de viaje del Senado Imperial de Rusia.
Tumblr media
En 1881 se inscribió en la Académie Colarossi.
Tumblr media
Le otorgaron otra beca y ganó dinero al seguir participando en las exposiciones de la Sociedad Artística, además de hacer ilustraciones para libros.
Tumblr media
En la década de 1890, comenzó a enseñar en Finlandia en la escuela de dibujo de la Sociedad Artística, pero en 1901 enfermó y un año después renunció a su puesto. Se mudó a Hyvinkää para seguir pintando y exponiendo mientras cuidaba de su madre ya anciana, que se había ido a vivir con ella.
Tumblr media
En 1913, conoció al comerciante de arte Gösta Stenman que la ayuda a exponer en diversos lugares y le organizó otra exposición individual para ella en Estocolmo y en 1938 comenzó a pagarle un salario mensual.
Helena hablaba inglés, francés y alemán de forma fluida. Con el paso de los años, viajó menos, solo desplazándose por causas de fuerza mayor. En 1921 volvió a Hyvinkää. Durante un año, se mudó a una granja en Tenala para escapar de la Guerra de Invierno donde se enfrentaron la URSS y Finlandia, pero regresó a Ekenäs a mediados de 1940.
En 1944 se mudó al hotel balneario Saltsjöbaden en Suecia, donde continuó pintando activamente incluso durante sus últimos años a pesar de los estragos del cáncer.
Se le conocen dos amores en su vida pero nunca se casó ni tuvo descendencia.
Le ponemos cara con uno de sus múltiples Autorretratos.

Hay una película de 2020, sobre su última etapa de vida, Helene.
