P. Kurzer, CHOICE This edited volume examines the revolutionary changes in living conditions in the West. Everyday lives were transformed by the rise of industry, the decline of manufacturing, and the expansion of social programs. While this process has been studied extensively, this collection sheds light on these transformations by focusing on individuals and households in a single Swedish city (Landskrona) and its nearby parishes.
