- Abstract
- Shootings in Sweden are falling sharply. What has happened? We have not defeated gang crime, nor can the answers be found in socioeconomic factors. What has in fact happened is that a long series of repressive measures has been introduced. It is still too early to say exactly which of them had an effect, but one thing is clear: something has changed, writes Ardavan M. Khoshnood, Associate Professor of Emergency Medicine.
- Abstract (Swedish)
- Skjutningarna i Sverige minskar kraftigt. Vad har hänt? Vi har inte besegrat gängbrottsligheten, och svaren finns heller inte i socioekonomin. Det som rent faktiskt har skett är att en lång rad repressiva åtgärder har införts. Exakt vilka som gav effekt är för tidigt att säga, men klart är att något har ändrats, skriver Ardavan M Khoshnood, docent i akutsjukvård.
