The Swedish Experiment : The COVID-19 Response and its Controversies Hardback
by Yohann (Raymond Aron Centre for Sociological and Political Studies (CESPRA)) Aucante
Hardback
Description
With Sweden traditionally hailed as a social and economic model, it is no wonder that the Swedish response to the COVID-19 pandemic raised a lot of questions – and eyebrows – around the world.
This short book explores Sweden’s unique response to the global pandemic and the strong wave of controversies it triggered. It helps to make sense of the response by defining ‘a Swedish model’ that incorporates the country’s value system, underpinning its politics and administration in relation to, among other things, welfare, democracy, civil liberties and respect for expertise.
The book also acts as a case study for understanding the moral and normative ways in which different national approaches to the pandemic have been compared.
