Reviews
"Johansson's study will still be of interest to scholars and students in Popular Music Studies and Scandinavian Studies. In particular, Songs from Sweden casts a welcome light on an otherwise enigmatic corner of the global popular music industry and is a welcome contribution to ongoing conversations about Sweden's role as a producer and broker of transnational culture." (Ryan Thomas Skinner, Scandinavian Studies, Vol. 93 (2), 2021)

1. Introduction: The Swedish Music Miracle, from 1.0 to 2.0.- 2. Local Music in a Global Network: Circulation, Reputation, and Hybridity.- 3. The Main Players.- 4. An Analysis of Swedish Pop Music.- 5. Concluding Thoughts.
Synopsis
An original contribution on a theme which has not been properly explored previously. Provides an innovative theoretical construct. Features fascinating primary-source interviews with prominent music producers., Songs from Sweden shows how Swedish songwriters and producers are the creative forces behind much of today's international pop music. As Ola Johansson reveals, the roots of this "music miracle" can be found in Sweden's culture, economy, and thriving music industry, concentrated in Stockholm. While Swedish writer-producers developed early global recognition for making commercially successful pop music, new Swedish writer-producers have continuously emerged during the last two decades. Global artists travel to Stockholm to negotiate, record, and co-write songs. At the same time, Swedish writer-producers are part of a global collaborative network that spans the world. In addition to concrete commercial accomplishments, the Swedish success is also a result of the acquisition of reputational capital gained through positive associations that the global music industry holds about Swedish music. Ultimately, pop songs from Sweden exhibit a form of cultural hybridity, drawing from both local and global cultural expressions.

    Mistakenly ordered a paperback that I thought was a hardcover, not sellers fault; it was described properly on the listing. Seller still processed a refund the day I went to return the item and let me keep the item anyway. A+++ service. Book arrived quickly in great condition and for a great price. Thank you so much! Amazing seller!

    seller was communicative about my shipment, media mail took a while and tracking wasn't updated frequently, but seller communicated to me very quickly on status. the item came new and wrapped as described, though the packaging in it was packed wasn't sturdy and falling apart when it got to me.
