The essay examines how the Swedish state demonstrates democracy as a social core value in the integration process for the new citizens.

It is also possible to distinguish three main categories that appears frequently in the material that have been analyzed. Freedom of speech and the right to use the information-flow freely, free and equal elections and last but not least, equal possibilities to ensure citizens equality values. (Less)
