Editing Timbro (section)

==Book publishing and education ==
However, the demonstration in 1983 was a unique event, as demonstrations have not been a focus for Timbro. Instead, developing and spreading ideas directed towards media and pundits have remained the main strategy. During the 1980s, book publishing became increasingly important, even extended into fiction. ''Operation Garbo'', a literary effort to influence security policy, was a great success leading to media coverage that was instrumental to ideological debates.

During the 1980s Timbro was the owner of private City University, which developed programs in economics. Among its students was [[Anders Borg]], later finance minister, who in the 1990s published two reports while studying at the City University.

Timbro also regularly publishes classic Swedish and international scholarly work. In later years it has also published books by major center-to-right thinkers as Fredrik Segerfeldt, [[Mattias Svensson]], Johan Lundberg, [[Lena Andersson (author)|Lena Andersson]], Erik Hörstadius, and [[Katrine Marcal]]. In addition to Swedish writers Timbro publishes international books on current events by, for instance, [[Deirdre McCloskey]], [[Friedrich Hayek]], [[Milton Friedman|Milton]] and [[Rose Friedman]], and [[Ayn Rand]].

In 2017, Timbro published the Timbro Authoritarian Populism Index 2017,<ref>{{cite web |last1=HEINÖ |first1=ANDREAS JOHANSSON |title=TIMBRO  AUTHORITARIAN  POPULISM INDEX 2017 |url=https://timbro.se/app/uploads/2018/01/populism-index-2017.pdf}}</ref> which measures the rise of electoral support for populist parties across Europe from 1980 to 2017. It found that support had slowly been rising, with 9 European countries having populist parties in government at the time of the report. A follow-up report was published in 2024,<ref>{{cite web |last1=HEINÖ |first1=ANDREAS JOHANSSON |title=TIMBRO  AUTHORITARIAN  POPULISM INDEX 2024 |url=https://www.epicenternetwork.eu/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Populism-Index-2024-Compressed.pdf}}</ref> where support for populist parties has consolidated since 2019, but showed little signs of expanding past current support levels.

Timbro has also established several educational programs. Sture Academy (see [https://timbro.se/utbildningar/stureakademin/ website]), named after Sture Eskilsson, is a one-year program. Since 2003 it has offered courses in ideology and politics.

The Reform Academy is a program where students delve into practical, economic issues as well research relevant for policy issues dominating the current economic-political debate.

The Digital Academy (website [https://timbro.se/utbildningar/digitala-akademin/ here]) is aimed at young persons belonging to classical liberal and center-to-right factions, and has its focus on digital communication.

In addition, Timbro provides a hands-on six week summer program where students can try their hand at actual research and the writing of reports in different areas.
