Timeline of government interventions and events regarding the COVID-19 pandemic in Sweden January 31, 2019, to June 3, 2021.
Description
The Swedish approach to managing the 2020-2021 COVID-19 pandemic has received significant attention in international scholarly work and the press. For this dataset, we have reviewed governmental and media archives to build a detailed timeline that chronicles significant policies, interventions, and events in the Swedish management of COVID-19. The dataset contains summary descriptions of what took place, when it happened, and who the principal actors involved were. Links to primary sources are provided for each entry. Because of the level of detail and saturation, the dataset offers a detailed account of Swedish pandemic governance and will benefit anyone working on Swedish pandemic management or doing comparative work between Sweden and other jurisdictions.
The dataset contains details on the date an event took place (column 1), tags to facilitate navigation (column 2), details on the principal actors involved in the event (column 3), a summary description of what took place and who was involved (column 4), and links to primary materials (e.g., archival entries) (columns 4-12). Through a structured and detailed outline, the dataset provides a saturated account of policy interventions and events in Sweden during the 2020-21 global COVID-19 pandemic and complements existing and less detailed timelines published at earlier points in the period.
