Preface
In February 1999, the Swedish Government authorised the Minister for Health and Social Affairs, Lars Engqvist, to set up a commission of academic researchers and instruct them to draw up a balance sheet for welfare in the 1990s. The central assignment of this
Welfare Commission
(Kommittén Välfärdsbokslut) was to produce a comprehensive assessment of welfare developments to serve as a basis for the discussion of the future direction for welfare policy. This task included an examination of people’s living conditions as well as of changes in structural conditions and social policies.
Joakim Palme was appointed to chair the Commission, and Åke Bergmark, Johan Fritzell, Olle Lundberg, Elisabet Näsman (until 15 January 2001), Lena Sommestad, and Marta Szebehely were selected as members.
