演讲简介 | We first describe the emergence of the Swedish Model, and then summarize its main features and the various institutions, both economic and political, that have sustained it. We will discuss governance issues, the welfare state, and policies towards the private sector. We will discuss the challenges of the welfare state in an increasingly integrated world economy. |
