The modern, technologically advanced welfare state that Finland is today is in fact a fairly recent creation. The social changes through which these post-industrial structures were introduced occurred at a much later point in time than elsewhere in the West; once they got underway they took place with unprecedented rapidity. This book tells the story of what happens to parties, governments and voters when the fundamental features that conditioned party formation and voter alignments undergo a rapid transformation. It is this perspective that makes the Finnish case interesting in an international comparison. To the largest extent possible, this book therefore examines Finland in a comparative perspective.
