Sverigedemokraterna
Placement: Law-and-order right
Sweden Democrats, Jimmie Åkesson's national-conservative party: born in 1988 in radical nationalist circles and later moderated under Åkesson, they became the second force in 2022 (third in 2026 with 17.5%) and from 2022 to 2026 backed the Kristersson government from outside. Sharp cuts to immigration, national identity, tougher sentences, skepticism toward the European Union.
In short
On the traditional scale, Sverigedemokraterna sits in the law-and-order right camp. The clearest positions are on immigration: strongly towards “control”; justice: strongly towards “tough on crime”; environment: strongly towards “growth”; sovereignty: strongly towards “sovereignty”. On economy, technology, democracy and devolution it stays balanced. Among ideologies, the closest is sovereigntism (95%).
