The best available model is the Swedish model as developed by SAMDOK. Their
model is based on the distinction between several 'milieus' (sectors of
society), rational selection criteria, and shared responsibilities. If you
are interested I would be happy to send more information, but, of course, it
is better to contact SAMDOK itself:
Samdoksekretariatet, Nordiska Museet, Box 27820, S-11593 Stockholm, Sweden
(fax + 46 8 666 45 80)
They have publications in English available.
