摘要

在本文中,我们首次估算了工业化前瑞典(包括今天的芬兰)的全部收入分配情况。我们利用当局为分配 1613 年阿夫斯堡赎金税收而制定的时间表和个人评估来估算收入不平等程度,以及最高等分层和不同社会群体的收入份额。我们发现,与近代早期的其他欧洲社会相比,瑞典是一个相对平等的社会,主要原因有两个:第一,贵族、教士、市镇居民和其他中层社会群体在总收入中所占的份额都相对较小;第二,瑞典的无地群体数量少于其他社会。这导致总收入的很大一部分流向了占人口大多数的、相对单一的有地农民群体。因此,我们的研究与瑞典近代早期的政治史学有关,在这一史学中,有地农民与国家之间的谈判与合作被视为国家形成过程的关键。

Swedish income inequality in 1613

Swedish income inequality in 1613

In this paper we present the first estimate of the full income distribution in pre-industrial Sweden (including present-day Finland). We draw on the schedule and the individual assessments devised by the authorities to distribute the 1613 Älvsborg ransom taxation to estimate income inequality, as well as the income shares of the top quantiles and of various social groups. We find that Sweden was relatively equal compared with other early modern European societies, for two main reasons: first, because the nobility, the clergy, the burghers, and other middle-rank social groups all held relatively small shares of the total income, and second, because the landless groups were less numerous in Sweden than in other societies. This resulted in a large share of the total income going to the relatively homogeneous group of landed peasants, who made up the majority of the population. Our study thus speaks to the political historiography of early modern Sweden, within which negotiation and collaboration between the landed peasantry and the state has been seen as pivotal to the state formation process.
