HHow many could buy the story of listless children? In the book “Apathetic children and society as treason” (Mondial), journalist Ola Sandstig shows how the immigration debate from the 1990s laid the foundations for this.
Many people remember the brochure “RUN FROM THEM! This is how the Swedish people think about immigrants and refugees ”(Expressen 5 / 9-93). The brochure was based on a Statistics Sweden survey commissioned by the newspaper. To the question “Should Sweden receive more refugees than we receive today?” 57 percent responded that Sweden should receive fewer refugees, and when asked if the authorities should actively try to persuade refugees who were allowed to stay in Sweden to return to their countries of origin, 63 percent responded yes. Many misunderstood the brochure, some wanted to see if it constituted incitement against an ethnic group. The then editor-in-chief of Expressen was forced to resign ten days later. The brochure has been taken as an entry for a harsh media climate in terms of immigration in the early 1990s. Ola Sandstig reports in detail that the opposite is true.
