associations. It had become more and more apparent how difficult it was to
frame uniform regulations for the various kinds of ideal associations in existence
and to adapt the regulations to their peculiar forms of organization.
Finally, may be quoted some figures from an official investigation into the
subject of ideal associations in Sweden, undertaken in 1910. Through local
authorities, returns were secured for 10 654 ideal associations, of which 10 389
returned a membership of 1 175 317 members. A representative statistical
inquiry, covering 78 selected central organizations, showed 21 793
branch-associations with 1 481 042 members. The last-named associations are grouped
according to their objects and their constitutional forms in the following table:

Labour Disputes.
Strikes and Lockouts from 1859 to 1902. With regard to strikes and lockouts
occurring in Sweden before the official statistics for labour disputes were started
in 1903, information is given in the returns drawn up by Dr A. Raphael for
the years 1859 to 1900. Since that time the investigations have been continued,
on the basis of Raphael’s notes, down to the commencement of the official
statistics above mentioned, so that continuous statistical data on the subject of
strikes and lockouts in Sweden are available since the end of the fifties of last
century. On summarizing the returns in question for certain periods, the
following facts are shown with regard to the number and extent of the labour
disputes:
