This study focuses on the popular election for prohibition in the county of Jämtland in Sweden. The study is based on two scientific questions. The first focuses on which actors had an impact on the results in the local area of Jämtland. The second question focuses on what was done to promote the prohibition. The study is a qualitative text analysis with a theoretical foundation from David Easton's system theory and the concepts that define the systems individual parts. The study focuses on IOGT Östersunds district and Ströms förenade förbudsvänner. The choice of organisations is circumstantial due to the able source material. There are other organizations involved in the study but they are peripheral due to their subordinate to Ströms förenade förbudsvänner. The source-material for this study is protocols from meetings and a newspaper called Förbudsomröstningen. The study concludes that Ströms förenade förbusvänner acts in unison as a body while in IOGT the work is mainly placed to individuals. This difference is due to conflicts within IOGT. Other significant findings are related to the gender perspective. Within IOGT they are aware of the effects a lack of female perspective causes on the prohibition movement. Other significant findings are that the social strata don't hold up. In that workers, employers, communists, poor and bourgeois work together for the same cause. The strategies in agitation was to send out representatives to the local communities to promote the prohibition. Other strategies were to spread materials like pamphlets, posters and newspapers that promoted the prohibition.
