BARRINGTON MOORE'S THESIS ON THE SOCIAL ORIGINS OF THE DEMOCRATIC VARIANT OF CAPITALISM IS EXAMINED WITH REFERENCE TO THE HISTORICAL EXPERIENCE OF SWEDEN. IT IS SUGGESTED THAT MOORE'S ARGUMENT, THAT SMALL OR LATE DEVELOPING COUNTRIES ARE NOT RELEVANT TO THE ANALYSIS OF THE ORIGINS OF DEMOCRACY, SHOULD BE DISMISSED OR MODIFIED.
