This book focuses on popular struggles in Denmark, Norway and
Sweden from 1700-2015, and how popular struggle in the form of
hunger riots, tax rebellions, petition drives, strikes,
demonstrations, public meetings and social movements paved the way
for the introduction and development of civil liberties and
political rights. The author portrays social and political mass
mobilization of ordinary people as vital to the construction of
democracy, and an essential condition for the formation of the
Scandinavian welfare states. Popular Struggle and Democracy in
Scandinavia shows the transnational connections between Denmark,
Norway and Sweden and between Scandinavia and the rest of Europe,
and also contains a comparison of popular struggle in Scandinavia
seen in a wider European perspective. The book will be of interest
to social scientists, historians and students and researchers with
an interest in popular struggles in Scandinavia.
