Abstract: Abstract During the 1970s, Bo Södersten wrote extensively on the idea of a labor-managed economy, where the employees managed the firms. He popularized the idea in newspaper articles and wrote longer essays where he explained the theory its relation to the issue of capital formation in wage-earners’ funds and advocated the introduction of such companies in Sweden—an idea which in the end turned out to be utopian.
