This paper discuss the possibilities to improve the Swedish political nomination system. It brings up some of the values and norms that can be used to change the existing system. Values as openness, the demand of responsibility and also if there is values from the American spoils system that can be used in the Swedish system. A minor purpose is to discuss the part of the parliament within the nomination process. To investigate this I have some theoretical starting points and a self constructed analysis tool. In my analysis I have applied the analysis of ideas. My information consists of contributions to different debates. The conclusion of this paper is that, if the suspicions of using the nomination system as a reward is true, we have parts of the spoils system in the Swedish system. Another is that the only part of the spoils system that has support in the Swedish debate is to coordinate the term of office between the politicians and the civil servants. To keep the nomination system a democratic process openness is needed both for the nomination process itself and for demand of responsibility. The last conclusion is that the parliament has to have possibility to influence the government in its nomination process. (Less)
