    Sammanfattning : The purpose of this thesis is to investigate whether some positions in democratic theory should be adjusted or abandoned in view of internationalisation; and if adjusted, how. More specifically it pursues three different aims: to evaluate various attempts to explain levels of democracy as consequences of internationalisation; to investigate whether the taking into account of internationalisation reveals any reason to reconsider what democracy is or means; and to suggest normative interpretations that cohere with the adjustments of conceptual and explanatory democratic theory made in the course of meeting the other two aims.

    Sammanfattning : Who should exercise power over the region? A governor appointed by the central state, a directly elected regional assembly or municipalities in co-operation? For almost four decades this has been a highly contested issue in Swedish decision-making bodies as well as in editorial pages. Not least in the 1990s, as Sweden has got closer to the intensified process of European integration, has the regional question been an important subject on the political agenda. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : This thesis studies new political parties in the context of both European and national elections.

    Sammanfattning : In recent decades, established political parties across Europe have become increasingly challenged by a new party family: the radical right. In terms of how mainstream parties respond to this challenge, Sweden has been a puzzling case both in a comparative European perspective and in light of established theories of party competition.
