      abstract = {This book explores the development of economic thought in  Sweden through some of the people who shaped it. The book  highlights both some of the well-known contributions and  some overlooked areas of research. It begins with the  origins of the pioneer neoclassical Heckscher-Ohlin theorem  and Gunnar Myrdal s circular, cumulative approach to  economic development. Secondly, it focuses on a number of  economists related to the Industrial Institute of Economic  and Social Research: Ingvar Svennilson, Axel Iveroth, Jan  Wallander, Erik Hook, Villy Bergstrom and Rolf Henriksson.  Finally, it offers portraits of three economists from Lund  University: Bo Sodersten, Ingemar Stahl and Gote Hansson.  The work of all of them is placed within the context of the  contemporary academic and public economic debate. This book  aims at providing a perspective on the legacy of the  Swedish tradition in economics and will be relevant to  students and academics interested in the history of  economic thought. Mats Lundahl is Professor emeritus of  Development Economics at the Stockholm School of Economics,  where he held his chair between 1987 and 2013.},
