Vi är inte längre där – en svensk liberalism i förändring
(2024) STVK04 20241Department of Political Science
- Abstract
- This thesis examines how the concept of liberty has changed in the three liberal parties represented in the Swedish parliament. The starting point of the thesis is the former right-wing government Alliance for Sweden, and its election manifesto from the year 2006. The manifesto of 2006 is then compared with the manifestos of the former liberal Alliance-parties from the election of 2022. The parties are the Moderate party, the Liberal party, and the Centre party. This paper aims to investigate if the parties’ concept of liberty has changed since the first, collectively formed, manifesto from the year 2006. The different election manifestos are therefore the only materials that are in the reach of the analysis. The chosen method of the study... (More)

The different election manifestos are therefore the only materials that are in the reach of the analysis. The chosen method of the study is descriptive agent-centred idea analysis. Furthermore, the method aims to analyse the concealed message and bias of the manifestos. The analysis is based on Isahia Berlin’s two different forms of liberty: the negative concept of liberty and the positive concept of liberty. The study concludes that the parties have gone in the direction of positive liberty. The manifesto from the year 2006 was more dedicated to the negative concept of liberty than the manifestos from the year 2022 were. (Less)
