Segregation

The plan makes fighting segregation a core issue and requires redistribution of resources to poor areas and suburbs, as well as general measures against unemployment, housing shortage and inequality. It is also explicitly feminist and anti-racist, which includes fighting oppressive values. Thus further measures against segregation are precisely what the plan calls for.

• redistribution to suburbsdecisive»det kräver en annan politik och att vi omfördelar resurserna från rika till fattiga människor, från rika områden till fattiga områden och förorter« (2022 manifesto ↗)“it requires different policy and that we redistribute resources from rich to poor people, from rich areas to poor areas and suburbs”
• structural measures against segregation»Generella åtgärder mot arbetslöshet, bostadsbrist och ojämlikhet« (party programme ↗)“General measures against unemployment, housing shortage and inequality”
• housing against segregation»jämställdhet och gemenskap och motverka segregation« (party programme ↗)“equality and community and prevent segregation”

Breaking segregation is one of the plan's main promises, with requirements to get to the bottom of the causes of residential segregation and to improve integration. The plan also explicitly connects the fight against segregation to action against honour-related violence and oppression. Further measures against segregation and for better integration are thus exactly what the plan requires.

• break residential segregationdecisive»Gå till botten med orsakerna till boendesegrega tionen. Vi har stramat åt migrationspolitiken, och denna linje ligger fast.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Get to the bottom of the causes of residential segregation. We have tightened immigration policy, and this line is firm.”
• segregation shall be broken»Bryt segregationen för att hålla ihop Sverige« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Break segregation to hold Sweden together”
• against honour-related oppression»Krafttag för att stoppa hedersrelaterat våld, sexualbrott och mäns våld mot kvinnor.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Action to stop honour-related violence, sexual crimes and men's violence against women.”
• mixed housing forms»Segregationen bryts inte med särlösningar för resurssvaga. Boende- och upplåtelseformer ska vara blandade. Trångboddheten ska bekämpas.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Segregation is not broken with separate solutions for the underprivileged. Housing and tenure forms shall be mixed. Overcrowding shall be combated.”

The plan explicitly requires further measures against segregation: school segregation shall be broken, preventive work in socioeconomically disadvantaged areas shall be prioritized and housing policy shall counteract segregation. The plan also connects this to the fight against honor-related violence and oppression. The counter-proposal's demands thereby coincide with the plan's own commitments.

• break school segregationdecisive»bryta skolsegregationen och göra skolvalet fritt och rättvist för alla« (2022 manifesto ↗)“break school segregation and make school choice free and fair for all”
• prevention in disadvantaged areas»storsatsa på det förebyggande arbetet i socioekonomiskt eftersatta områden« (2022 manifesto ↗)“prioritize preventive work in socioeconomically disadvantaged areas”
• housing policy against segregation»Miljöpartiets bostadspolitik ska motverka segregation och främja lika rättigheter« (party programme ↗)“The Green Party's housing policy shall counteract segregation and promote equal rights”
• against honor-related oppression»stärka arbetet mot hedersrelaterat våld och förtryck så att likvärdig hjälp ges i hela landet« (2022 manifesto ↗)“strengthen work against honor-related violence and oppression so equal help is provided across the country”

The election manifesto makes segregation a main priority for the parliamentary term and describes the divide between those born in Sweden and those born abroad as a systemic fault that must be reversed. The plan also explicitly links segregation and exclusion to honour-based culture and other oppressive structures that must be counteracted. The counter-proposal's demand for additional measures against segregation and for better integration therefore aligns with the plan's own commitments.

• segregation as main prioritydecisive»Sverige är segregerat mellan dem med och utan jobb, mellan de som är födda här och i andra länder, mellan dem med och utan utbildning. Att vända detta måste vara en huvudprioritet inför nästa mandatperiod.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Sweden is segregated between those with and without jobs, between those born here and in other countries, between those with and without education. Reversing this must be a main priority for the next parliamentary term.”
• counteract oppressive structures»Både flickor och pojkar tar skada när de trycks ner i fack som inte passar dem — vare sig det handlar om hederskultur i familjen, särbehandling i skolan eller diskriminering på arbetsplatsen. Sådana strukturer och normer måste tas på allvar och motarbetas.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Both girls and boys suffer when they are confined to roles that do not suit them — whether through honour culture in the family, special treatment at school or discrimination in the workplace. Such structures and norms must be taken seriously and counteracted.”
• zero tolerance for honour-based oppression»Ingen ska utsättas för hedersförtryck i Sverige.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“No one shall be subjected to honour-based oppression in Sweden.”
• faster integration»Skapa ett intensivår för snabbare integration.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Create an intensive year for faster integration.”

The plan's most binding commitment on the subject is that Sweden in 2030 shall have not a single disadvantaged area, and that policy must respond to the breadth of the lack of freedom that segregation creates. The plan also explicitly links segregation to undemocratic and honour-related values and to separatists' power in disadvantaged areas. The counter-proposal's demands for additional measures against segregation and for integration therefore follow directly from the plan.

• no disadvantaged areas 2030decisive»Vårt viktigaste mål är detta: Sverige ska år 2030 inte ha ett enda utsatt område.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Our most important goal is this: Sweden shall in 2030 have not a single disadvantaged area.”
• policy matching the problem»Nu behövs en politik som svarar upp mot vidden av den ofrihet och otrygghet som segregationen leder till.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Now policy is needed that responds to the breadth of the lack of freedom and insecurity that segregation leads to.”
• against honour-based oppression and parallel societies»Parallella samhällen med odemokratiska värderingar och parallell rättsskipning får aldrig accepteras.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Parallel societies with undemocratic values and parallel administration shall never be accepted.”
• stop the separatists»Vi vill ta tillbaka makten från separatister i utsatta områden, värna en skolgång fri från separatistisk påverkan och pröva möjligheten att införa vistelseförbud för dömda kriminella i utsatta områden.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“We want to take back power from separatists in disadvantaged areas, protect schooling free from separatist influence and examine the possibility of introducing residence prohibitions for convicted criminals in disadvantaged areas.”

The party programme establishes that policy shall be designed so that ethnic, social and economic segregation is opposed, among other things through varying forms of tenure in all residential areas. The election manifesto links integration problems and exclusion to the need for action and points to areas where extremists have gained decisive influence. The plan therefore supports demands for further action against segregation.

• oppose segregationdecisive»Därigenom motverkas etnisk, social och ekonomisk segregation.« (party programme ↗)“Thereby ethnic, social and economic segregation is opposed.”
• mixed forms of tenure»Strävan bör vara att det i alla stadsdelar och bostadsområden ska finnas varierande upplåtelseformer« (party programme ↗)“The goal should be that in all districts and residential areas there are varying forms of”
• strict immigration policy»Stram migrationspolitik krävs för att ta itu med integrationsproblem och utanförskap.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Strict immigration policy is required to address integration problems and exclusion.”
• oppose extremist influence»Det finns också områden där islamistiska extremister har en avgörande påverkan på samhällslivet.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“There are also areas where Islamist extremists have decisive influence on community life.”

The plan takes no explicit position on what the committee actually decided — often because the committee's reason was procedural. The stance is derived and fully cited, but it does not show the party broke a commitment.

The plan makes segregation a main issue and demands a series of additional measures: investments in the Swedish language and the quality of teaching, inspection and closure of schools that promote segregation, and zero tolerance for honor-based abuse with a national mapping. The connection between segregation and patriarchal, oppressive values is explicit in the plan. Therefore, the plan supports the demand for additional measures against segregation and for better integration.

• language and school break segregationdecisive»De enskilt viktigaste åtgärderna för att bryta segregationen handlar om kvaliteten i undervisningen och det svenska språket.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“The most important measures to break segregation are about the quality of teaching and the Swedish language.”
• zero tolerance for honor-based abuse»Kvinnofientliga traditioner och strukturer kan aldrig accepteras i ett fritt, öppet och jämställt samhälle.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Women-hostile traditions and structures can never be accepted in a free, open, and equal society.”
• map honor-based abuse»Genomföra en nationell kartläggning av hedersförtryckets utbredning« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Conduct a national mapping of the prevalence of honor-based abuse”
• close segregating schools»Ge Skolinspektionen i särskilt uppdrag att granska och stänga skolor som kan misstänkas främja radikalisering och segregation« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Give the School Inspectorate a special assignment to inspect and close schools that can be suspected of promoting radicalization and segregation”

The plan makes the fight against segregation and oppressive honour culture a central commitment and establishes that integration policy has so far failed despite extensive costs. The counter-proposal's requirement for additional measures against segregation and its connection to patriarchal values thereby aligns with the plan. The plan also speaks against the committee's reasoning that broad budgeted measures and ordinary processes suffice.

• assimilation against segregationdecisive»Integrationspolitiken ska bygga på assimilering och främja sammanhållningen i landet.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Integration policy shall be based on assimilation and promote cohesion in the country.”
• combat honour-based oppression»Hederskultur är oförenligt med svenska värderingar och ska bekämpas med samhällets samlade resurser.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Honour culture is incompatible with Swedish values and shall be combated with society's combined resources.”
• growing segregation»Antalet segregerade områden där gäng och klaner pressat tillbaka det svenska samhället har vuxit i både antal och i graden av segregation.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“The number of segregated areas where gangs and clans have pushed back Swedish society has grown in both number and degree of segregation.”
• no support for segregating groups»Stoppa statligt stöd till extremistiska organisationer och andra grupper som verkar segregerande« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Stop government support for extremist organisations and other groups that promote segregation”
