Nykterhet, väckelse och frikyrklig organisering

These are mainly associated with earlier temperance and free-church movements, not the new 1960s protest wave.

Jordbruk, egnahem och utvandring till Amerika

This refers to earlier agricultural and emigration issues, not the focus of these youth movements.

Neutralitet, ransonering och militär beredskap

This mainly describes wartime supply and security, not the new youth peace and solidarity activism.
