This book, with the title Coalition rule - bloc rule - multiple rule, deals with the development of the forms of government that have been put into practice in Swedish municipalities during the period 1952-2002. Forms of government refer to how the power, in the form of chairmanship of local administrations, has been distributed between the majority and minority in the different municipal councils. Two levels are involved in this study. First a national investigation, which for the main part of the period is done in the form of a total survey. Second, more detailed case studies applicable to the development in the county of Kronoberg, Småland. As the title indicates the development of the forms of government in Swedish municipalities can be classified into three main phases. The first phase, coalition rule, means that the majority and the minority shared chairmanships of local administrations. This was valid at the time of the starting-point of the study and continued until the beginning of the 1970s. The second phase, bloc rule, was seriously modelled during the first half of the 1970s and implied that one of the traditional political blocs had all the chairmanships in a municipality. The third and last phase, multiple rule, can be said to have started in the mid 1990s. This phase was characterised by softened bloc politics, among other things as a consequence of the fact that the Green Party and various local parties had the position as the balance of power in considerably more municipalities. The theoretical framework of the study is composed by the concepts of conflict and consensus, political culture, practice, hegemony and coalition formation. These five elements seem to be interrelated, and they should serve as suitable instruments of analysis. This should make the empirical results more possible to generalise. Conflict and consensus can be connected to the political culture by the fact that the political culture in a municipality can be characterised by either conflict or consensus. The political culture can then lead to a certain practice. For example, under a long succession of terms of office, a system is applied with as far-reaching majority marks as the law allows, where one of the traditional political blocs always is in power in the municipality. There is also an ambition to develop the theoretical insights better, in particular in two cases. First, there is an effort to formulate ideal models of municipal politics on the basis of the conception of hegemony. Second, there is an attempt to integrate the human factor in the theories of coalition formation.

El texto que se reproduce a continuación es la base escrita ampliada de la conferencia que Antoni Domènech pronunció en la Universidad Autónoma de Barcelona (UAB) el pasado 26 de octubre en el marco de unas jornadas conmemorativas organizadas por la Comissió del Centenari de la Revolució Russa y por el grupo de investigación GREF-CEFID de la UAB. La conferencia fue seguida de un largo y animado debate, que ha tratado de incorporarse ahora al cuerpo del texto final y, sobre todo, a las notas a pie de página. Por los intercambios críticos habidos en ese debate, el autor se manifiesta particularmente agradecido a los historiadores Borja de Riquer y Enric Prat, a los sociólogos Joaquim Sempere, Edgar Manjarín y Jordi Borja, al politólogo Joan Botella y al economista Daniel Raventós, así como al doctorando Julio Martínez Cava. (SinPermiso publicó el pasado 26 de octubre el texto de la conferencia dictada por el historiador Josep Fontana en el marco de esas mismas jornadas conmemorativas: La revolución rusa y nosotros.)

La fraternidad es el pariente pobre de la tríada democrático-republicana moderna. No sólo políticamente. También filosóficamente: mientras que los conceptos de «igualdad" y "libertad" han sido concienzudamente explorados, "fraternidad», sigue pareciendo una noción amorfa. Este artículo presenta una reivindicación política, a la altura de finales del siglo XX, de la fraternidad, e intenta dibujar filosóficamente, tras un preámbulo histórico, un concepto algo preciso y proteico de ella.
