Abstract
Many analyses of urban political economy tend to overlook the significance of local business organizations and public-private committees in the urban political process. This article analyzes local business organizations and joint committees in Swedish municipalities. Political stability seems more important than ideological orientation of the local political elite for the creation of joint committees. Business influence on local politics is contingent on the institutionalized forms of public-private interaction. Business demands on local politics cover almost all urban service sectors, and local authorities have largely responded to these demands.
