abstract = "The map is not simply a representation of existing space, or a mirror of the earth{\textquoteright}s surface. It is rather a multi-faceted instrument expressing that the power to represent is the power to order, and that the rationality of geometrical space could influence people{\textquoteright}s lived spaces through its role as a planning tool. These issues are discussed with three examples from Swedish modernity; the production of land survey maps, the early economic mapping, and the map{\textquoteright}s role in welfare planning. It is concluded that maps are important study objects if one wants to analyse the formation of modern society.",
