Bo Sersten from Left to Right: Portrait of a Political Economist (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9783031091001)

This book explores the economic work and legacy of Bo Sersten. While best known internationally for his textbook International Economics, Sersten's influence stretches well beyond this. Through his academic work and newspaper articles, he covered a wide spectrum of topics that often challenged conventional wisdom. By examining his work on housing, the labor-managed economy, development economics, nuclear power, childcare, and higher education, a full view of his diverse work is presented.

This book aims to provide insight into the motivations and impact of Bo Sersten during each phase of his life: his academic career, his political life, and his time as a debater-provocateur. It will be relevant to students and researchers interested in Swedish economics, the history of economic thought, and international economics.
