Abstract: The Swedish model is particularly attractive because it has resisted well to the major shocks of 1970s and 1990s. In particular, while the crisis of 1993 was particularly strong causing a major recession and a dramatic increase in unemployment, the evolutions that followed were very encouraging. This paper explains how Sweden has combined a sharp upturn in production, a quick return to full employment and a rising of the employment rate of older workers. Our analysis shows that Sweden has shown its ability to regulate efficiently its economy by improving performance of its labour market in a context where the aging of the population has become a main challenge. JEL classification: E00, H55, J00.
