Résumé :
ENGLISH :
The article describes the present system and offers some explanations for its acceptance by looking at history. The fact that compulsory decisions have been made within the social administration has meant that such measures grew with the welfare system and could benefit from its goodwill. The medical profession provided motivation for preventive compulsory measures for social or individual reasons and gave hope for a cure. The crucial involvement of lay-persons and non-governmental organisations in decision-making and provision of compulsory treatment has given compulsory treatment a high political legitimacy. Compulsion became 'internalised' in the Swedish society. The economic and political liberalisation of today may pose a threat to the Swedish compulsory treatment of substance misusers.
