Abstract

Abstract:In the recent election to the Swedish Parliament, the Sweden Democrats, a right-wing populist and nationalist Party, gained 20.5 percent of the vote, making it for the first time the second-largest party in the country. The election resulted in a narrow win for the right-wing bloc that is now in government. In international rankings of factors such as "happiness," social trust, population health, quality of democracy, gender equality, economic prosperity, etc., Sweden is a very successful society. This article attempts to answer the question of why, given these rankings, such a large part of the electorate voted for an antiestablishment, populist, right-wing, and illiberal party.

《瑞典右翼的阴影

摘要：在最近的瑞典议会选举中，右翼民粹主义和民族主义政党瑞典民主党获得20.5%的选票，首次成为该国第二大政党。这次选举使目前执政的右翼集团险胜。在“幸福”、社会信任、人口健康、民主质量、性别平等、经济繁荣等因素的国际排名中，瑞典是一个非常成功的社会。这篇文章试图回答这样一个问题：鉴于这些排名，为什么有这么大一部分选民投票给了一个反建制、民粹主义、右翼和不自由的政党。
