The EIU assessment of Swedish democracy i manifestly an outright fraud - we have the proof

Submitted by Grundlag (Sweden), Dec 2, 2009 at 10:55

We have analysed the Economist´s rating of Swedish democracy, and found that it must be an outright fraud. Either they have never consulted any experts, or the experts they consulted were not independent. If correct answers are given regarding Swedish democracy, Sweden in most cases fails to qualify as a full democracy. Our critical review is very detailed and contains several references to leading Swedish political scientists, mainstream research, leading journalists, etc, so you can contact Swedish researchers and journalists, if you want to follow up on or check our facts. When we have contacted the Economist regarding our critical review, they refuse to answer us... You can find our review at the grundlag.wordpress blog.
