The Breakdown of the Gothenburg System is a historical book written by Ernest Barron Gordon in 1911. The book is a detailed account of the Gothenburg System, a liquor licensing scheme that was implemented in Sweden in the late 19th century. The system was designed to control the sale and consumption of alcohol by creating a monopoly on the sale of liquor and using the profits to fund social welfare programs.Gordon’s book provides a comprehensive analysis of the Gothenburg System, tracing its origins and development, as well as its eventual decline and eventual replacement by other forms of liquor licensing. He examines the economic, social, and political factors that contributed to the success and failure of the system, and provides a detailed account of the debates and controversies that surrounded it.The book is an important historical document, providing valuable insights into the development of liquor licensing policies and their impact on society. It is also a fascinating account of a unique social experiment that has had a lasting impact on Swedish society and the wider world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world’s literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
