Gives a detailed account of the decade long conflict in Sweden over the 'Meidner plan' for collective 'wage-earner funds', financed by profits and originally designed to produce far reaching transformations in the ownership and control of enterprises. Explains how in the face of a ferocious campaign funded and orchestrated by capitalist interests, popular support for the plan eventually ebbed and the Social Democratic Party backed away from the radical version of the proposals. Argues that the issues of ownership and control addressed by the 'Meidner plan' will recur in the future and that as part of a wider socialist strategy they would have a pronounced anticapitalist potential.

En el transcurso de los ultimos veinticinco anos el Peru ha experimentado una transformacion sustancial de su estructua social, que impulso la radicalizacion politica de las clases populares y, muy en especial, de sus jovenes. Durante los anos sesenta las clases populares urbanas experimentaron una cierta movilidad ascendente y un crecimiento de sus expectativas de mejoria de su ocupacion, ingreso, educacion y participacion politica. A partir de mediados de los anos setenta cambia la situacion. Se deterioran las condiciones economicas y persisten los obstaculos a una participacion politica plena. En estas circunstancias la confrontacion violenta se constituye en procedimiento habitual en los conflictos politicos

The argument of this paper is that the emergence of military dictatorships, such as the Brazilian regime of 1964, is not caused by an economic crisis of dependent capitalist development. Rather, it results from a polarization and radicalization of the democratic regime by which it is preceded. Democracies handed down from above, like that in Brazil and other South American democracies, lend themselves to polarization and radicalization. They therefore favor the emergence of modern forms of autocracy.

Radicalization of youth. Protest against the establishment and its values, against corruption and alienation of the personality; government response.

The results of the 1984 Knesset elections are summarized in seven points, followed by a conclusive discussion: the trend of growing support for the Likud was arrested; the entire "right-wing" bloc lost strength; radicalization among "right-wing" voters; the Alignment was not victorious; the "left-wing" parties maintained their strength; the strength of the religious parties did not increase; absence of a "pivot party".
