| dc.description.abstract | Trends in wage-rental ratios have figured prominently in the recent literature
on factor price convergence and globalisation in the late nineteenth century. In that
literature Sweden has been described as a free trade country whose wage-rental ratio
exhibited a distinguished upward trend before World War I. This article presents a new
series of land prices which indicates an increase in land rentals and an evolution of the
wage-rental ratio more in line with other European protectionist countries. We explore
the determinants of the Swedish wage-rental ratio and assess the relative importance of
protectionism and the change in the product mix from arable to animal products in
Swedish agriculture. | swe |
