Care Work, Labour Control and the Gendered Social Reproduction of a Semi-Landless Class in 19th Century Sweden
This article shows how the reproductive work in the households of the semi-proletarianized Swedish group termed crofters (Sw: torpare) ensured subsistence for the crofters and increased capital accumulation for large landowners. Crofters lived under partly proletarianized, partly feudal conditions and their labour organization illuminates the proletarianization during the 19th century. Through two concepts from the field of Marxist-feminist socia…

In the early modern rural setting, labour was organized with varying degrees of coercion depending on landowning, social standing, and gender. This article analyses the crofter institution, characterized by corvée labour (obligatory work as payment), from the perspective of gender and coercion. The purpose is to answer the question of how the crofter institution was created, shaped, enabled and questioned. The right to establish a croft made the …

However, as a measure to hinder large landowners from holding a majority of the votes, the Act guaranteed voting rights for tenants. The aim of the article is to analyse how power relations played out after this challenge to landlords’ hegemony. Through an analysis of …
Migration and housing regimes in Sweden 1739–1982
This article aims to analyse the changes in migration regimes in Sweden over the period 1739–1982. We have chosen to divide this into four periods where each is characterized as a specific regime: the pre-industrial period (1739–1860), the laissez faire period (1860–1932), the rising ambitions period (1932–1951) and the Rehn-Meidner period (1951–1982). These four periods reveal different approaches held by the state regarding labour migration and…
