 | | The only difference in counterfeiting preventative measures between the making of the krona and the dollar is that the krona has detail in florescent colors and the dollar has detail in different color greens. | | | The paper from the mill at Tumba was made especially for the printing of the krona and had unique qualities. | | | Until 1855, when the Riksbank established its own paper mill in Tumba, counterfeiting was escalating and beginning to get out of control. |

| | With its recent history of devaluation, the country was exposed to several runs on the krona during the fall of 1992 in conjunction with general turbulence in Europe's foreign exchange markets. | | | Sweden, despite its small size, has a large number of multinational companies that will be looking for alternate telecommunications service sources--business partners who offer global services--now that the market has been deregulated. | | | The fall of the Swedish krona by 20-25 percent since the November 1992 float has pushed up the price of imports and could reduce demand for price-sensitive products. |

| | The Militant - September 15, 2003 -- Neither euro nor Swedish krona |
| | The EU is a bloc of predatory powers in Europe formed not only to compete against their imperialist rivals in the United States and Japan over the division and redivision of the world but above all to maximize their plunder of working people and oppressed nations around the globe. | | | Swedish workers and exploited farmers have interests that are antagonistic to those of the bosses and the entire bourgeoisie—whether Swedish or of other nationalities—and common interests with working people throughout the world. | | | Nationalistic resistance to the EMU, which has as its starting point the “defense of the Swedish krona” or the “independence of Sweden& national bank,” is a reactionary obstacle to the line of march of the working class and its allies and makes the labor movement vulnerable to the demagogy of the ultraright. |
