This article examines state-church relations in Sweden by analysing clerical appointment
processes in the latter part of the 16th century. The aim is to ascertain whether the king of Sweden
could appoint pastors independently, and if not, with whom he was compelled to share the power.
Earlier studies argue that the power of the king grew due to the reformation. First, this article examines
the number of clerical appointments that were made in the period 1560-1611. The results reveal a
remarkable annual variation in the number of clerical appointments. Second, the timing and share of
clerical appointments made by the king are studied. The number of appointments made by the king is
viewed against the total number of clerical appointments so as to reveal the importance of appointments
made by the crown. Third, the article examines the proportion of appointments made by other
au-thorities. The results suggest that the crown’s role in clerical appointment processes varied, but
more interestingly, it was not as ubiquitous as earlier researchers suggest. Thus article concludes that
crown’s power over the church in 16th century Sweden was not as vast as it has previously been
claimed.
