Swedish migration and integration policy have been well debated in recent years. There are disagreements between the parliamentary parties regarding how the policy problems should be solved in the long run. This study will examine how the Moderate party describes their integration ideas in policy documents. The purpose is to investigate whether and how the Moderates’ integration policy has changed during the period 2001-2020. Carl Dahlström has a theory that categorizes immigration policy types, which have been used to clarify the political ideas within the Moderate party. This study shows that the Moderate party has a policy that is responsible for the individual’s freedom and right. Integration policy must create opportunities for people to become a part of the Swedish society. During the last period 2018-2020, however, the party began to make more demands on immigrants, such as language requirements. The focus has shifted from presenting most general measures to more selective ones. With more selective measures, the Moderate party now wants to create a better integration that especially supports immigrants.
