Abstract

After 1980 the neo-liberal understanding began to feel the effects in Sweden. This effect has shown most at the local level. Neo-liberalism that has been felt the most profound effect on public interest and public participation, deepens the impact on local governments the provision of public services and the function. According to some Swedish writer, the local government act (1991) which public services, sharing between the private sector and local governments, have produced results that undermine the public interest and public participation at the local level. By this law, to private public services has changed the nature and shape of the hand given the opportunity. Private public services that are left that holds the heat in the public interest has become more important than the interests of the company. This is a reflection on the practical life of local decision-making process of the private sector as the dominant in the negotiation process can take place and that created the opportunity for the people to remain underutilized. Therefore, the decisions of the private sector in the negotiation process that takes place in the examples worked out for the benefit of the private sector amid public participation in one area of public services that impact and not be left to private. Folk Park is one of the examples that can be given at this point. In Sweden public interest and public participation are starting to become dormant by giving them a chance to read that backwards, neo-liberalism, the impact of public participation and public interest reveals.
