Chapter Chapter 6 in Bo Södersten from Left to Right, 2022, pp 45-52 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Between 1968 and 1970, Bo Södersten applied for a number of chairs in economics in Sweden and Denmark, with negative results until in 1971 he became August Röhss Professor of Economics in Gothenburg. The chapter contains a critical examination of the statements made by the expert committees involved in the appointments. It also deals with Bo’s role in the creation of the Swedish Institute for Social Research and with his appointment as professor of international economics in Lund in 1978.
