  • Speech by Ms Maria Larsson at the Conference
    2008 Speech Strasbourg 30 October 2008 Maria Larsson, Minister for Children and the Elderly Speech by Ms Maria Larsson at the Conference "Protecting and promoting the rights of persons with disabilities in Europe" Ladies and gentlemen, dear participants! As you already know this conference has been arranged in cooperation between Sweden, the Council of Europe Committee of Ministers and the Nordic Council of Ministers. And one objective of the Swedish Chairs of these two organisations is to strengthen the status of disability issues in the work of the Council of Europe and in Nordic cooperation. Disability issues have therefore been given priority and a prominent place in the programmes of the two Swedish Chairs. It is high time to start to think about disability issues as questions of human rights. Around 650 million people with disabilities are dependent on the protection provided by the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. The Convention does not create new rights but aims to remove obstacles that prevent persons with disabilities from enjoying human rights. And it is important to keep in mind that all human rights are indivisible and interdependent. For Sweden it is important that the continuation of the process is inclusive. Men and women with disabilities and their representative organisations must be involved in and participate fully in the implementation of the Convention. People with disabilities must themselves have a major say in the monitoring process. "Nothing about us without us!" This motto was often repeated in New York during the negotiations on the UN Convention. The rights for everyone to participate in society on equal terms should be the main focus.

  • Big Brother Sweden: Critics Force Snoop Law Postponement
    Big Brother Sweden: Critics force snoop law postponement By Global Research Region: Europe Global Research, June 18, 2008 Theme: Police State & Civil Rights thelocal.se 18 June 2008 Swedish lawmakers have agreed to postpone plans for the passing into law of a controversial surveillance bill following an emotional debate in the Riksdag on Tuesday evening. A last gasp appeal from the Centre Party was accepted by the government, which promised to strengthen the law with regard to civil liberties. Prime Minister Fredrik Reinfeldt said his Moderate Party would back the amendments proposed by dissenting members of parliament in the governing coalition. Rather than facing a straight ‘yes’ or ‘no’ vote on Wednesday morning, the government’s proposal is expected to be referred back to the parliament’s defence committee for further consultation. Centre Party MP Fredrick Federley made an emotional plea to his coalition partners on Tuesday evening to rethink the proposed legislation. “The pros and cons need to be weighed up very carefully before reaching what is a very, very difficult decision. Certain issues are of so much greater importance than others that we must give them whatever time it takes,” he said. Federley added that signal surveillance could sometimes be necessitated, but not in the form set out in the current proposal. He then asked Defence Minister Sten Tolgfors whether the government intended taking further steps to guarantee the protection of civil liberties. Such a move would be decisive if he were to vote in favour of the law, said Federley. A year after the bill was first put on ice following pressure from the opposition, the government eventually agreed to take another look at the proposed legislation.

  • Migration Between Politics, Journalism and PR New Conditions for Power, Citizenship and Democracy?
    10.2478/nor-2014-0109 Nordicom Review 35 (2014) Special Issue, pp. 141-153 Migration between Politics, Journalism and PR New Conditions for Power, Citizenship and Democracy? Göran Palm & Håkan Sandström Abstract In this article we present a preliminary theoretical background and some empirical findings concerning a migrating trend between the fields of politics, PR and journalism: one day a political reporter, the next a communication officer; one day a PR consultant, the next a state secretary. To understand contemporary politics one must, we argue, comprehend the convergence between three fields of power holders that together form the realm of politics and communication: elite politicians, elite political reporters and elite communication/PR officers. Together, they form a communication elite that sets the parameters for the public discourse on politics. When politics is produced and constructed in, and through, social networks formed by elite agents from politics, journalism and PR, what does this mean for how democracy is worked out and what does it mean for citizenship in general? Keywords: communication elites, convergence, politics, public relations, journalism, de- mocracy Introduction This text can be seen as a starting point for a research project – Post-politics in Medi- aocracy: the structural transformation of political communication – dealing with the fundamentals of contemporary Swedish politics and democracy. The basic outline of the project concerns social power, power agents and the production and construction of ‘the political’. In focus are the agents that form the realm of politics and political communication, that is, those agents that possess the resources to produce a dominant discourse – a basic knowledge structure – of politics and democracy, but also how this agency is socially and culturally contextualized.

  • General Elections in Sweden from Corinne Deloy Th Translated by Helen Levy 19 September 2010
    SWEDEN European Elections monitor General Elections in Sweden from Corinne Deloy th Translated by Helen Levy 19 September 2010 On 19th September next 7 million Swedes are being called to renew all of their MPs: both national ANALYSIS (members of the Riksdag, the only Chamber of Parliament) and local (town councils and county councils). Norwegians and Icelanders who live in the kingdom, those with a nationality of another State but registered as resident in Sweden for the last three consecutive years and citizens of the 26 other EU Member States will be entitled to vote in the local elections. With regard to the general election voters can vote by post in advance in all of the country’s post offices during the 18 days preceding the election i.e. as from 1st September. If they so wish they can cancel their postal vote by returning to the ballot box on Election Day. 497,000 Swedes will be voting for the first time on 19th September next i.e. +15% in comparison with the last general elections on 17th September 2006, representing 9% of all voters. Finally 132,780 Swedes living abroad will be taking part in the election. Just one month from the election the result is still uncertain. Many political analysts believe that the election will be fought out in the centre. In a SIFO poll in July 36% of Swedes said they tended to the right, 24% to the left and 33% to the centre. Another poll in July showed that 46% of voters thought that the Alliance forces, in office at present, were going to win on 19th September whilst 40% were forecasting a change in government and therefore a victory for the left.
