In 1974, Sweden got a new Instrument of government which will be celebrated in the Swedish Riksdag on March 6. Leading scholars from law and political science have approached the new rules from different perspectives that compose a new edition that will be presented during the seminar.

Annika Fredén is one of the contributors, with a chapter on the Swedish electoral system with emphasis on the four percent threshold and its consequences for strategic party and voter behavior. 

From Lund University Hanna Bäck is also one of the contributors, with a chapter on government formation (co-authored with Jan Teorell, Stockholm University).
