Sverigedemokraterna och EU : En motivförklaring till partiets strategi i EU-frågan sedan 2019Bolkéus, Olle January 2023 (has links)
The European Union has since its founding experienced criticism from both the political left and right and one of the main of the critics of the EU has been the Populist Radical Right. One among many Populist Radical Right parties that has advocated a formal withdrawal from the EU is the Swedish party the Sweden Democrats. However, in early 2019 the party announced that they, after almost 30 years, no longer want Sweden to leave the EU. Both ideological and external events have been proposed as explanations for this radical change in position. The purpose of this study though, is to try to seek strategic explanations as to why the Sweden Democrats no longer want Sweden to leave the EU. Articles, videos and speeches will be studied in order to chart which justifications the Sweden Democrats themselves give for their change of position. Interpretations of my own and from others will also be used to seek an answer as to why the Sweden Democrats has changed their policy, beyond the Sweden Democrats' own words. The findings suggest that the strategic motives behind the Sweden Democrats' decision to leave the Swedish EU-exit, is mainly to maximize the control over the government and to maximize in voter support. However, in order to find stronger evidence behind the strategic motives of the Sweden Democrats, further research on the subject is necessary.
