“Right kulturkrigare hate a formed people.”

“the adult education Movement’s idea is dangerous, for the reactionary forces”

“Aftonbladet’s leader board is the independent social democrat.”

“The right-wing extremists think is the most fun is kulturkamp. And not just right-wing extremists by the way. Our time, our society and our way of communication seems particularly suited for battles about whether christmas is prohibited, if there are English values, what chocolate should be called and if the language in Astrid Lindgren’s books should be updated.”

“But for the extremists, it is not any debattövning, it is a superior strategy. To change political opinion one must change the values that people may, by their cultural upbringing into society.”

“If you grow up in a country where racist stereotypes cut out of Donald Duck on christmas eve and where the department store let the boys have a conflict”, but he in their advertising, your values subversive and norm-breaking. However, if one grows up in a country where theatres are only playing Swedish drama, where ancient sites are in a prominent position and in which the blockbusters in the cinema is about Gustav Vasa you get äktsvenska, healthy, and wholesome values. It is the assumption that right-wing extremists build their kultursyn on and this is what characterizes, for example, the sweden democrats ‘ politics of culture.”

“That policy has now begun to been practiced seriously out in the country.”

“In Sölvesborg, where The sweden democrats the reigns together with the moderates and the christian democrats, becomes the People’s house-the association of large parts of the local government support. Enprocentsregeln, the principle that a percentage of the cost of municipal construction projects be allocated to art, should be abolished. And 25 percent of municipal contributions to the study associations are removed. In Trelleborg, where the Moderates and the Christian democrats govern with the support of the SD, the budget of the united states is halved. And in the sweden democrats ‘ latest budgetmotion wanted the party to reduce support for adult education with 968 million.”

“the Fight against the united states is interesting. Covenants, and the education of the people as they stand for are rooted in the late 1800’s democracy movement. In nykterhetsloger, frikyrkoförsamlingar and arbetarföreningar trained the people in democratic accountability and aimed to broaden each other’s knowledge about everything from language to föreningskunskap. Today we have a word for that: social capital.”

“of study Circles and folk high schools were established to ordinary people might be able to change society. For the young labor movement was the goal of the adult education movement not to destroy everything that the privileged classes had created, but to ensure that everyone had access to mankind’s cultural wealth. You wanted to put samhällskunskapens, study programme and the philosophy of weapons in the hands of the common people.”

“Each year, over 600 000 swedes in at least one study circle. You learn pottery, dance, line dance, speak japanese. Reading körkortsteori, take motorsågskörkort, make podcasts. Talking about the future of migration policy, the pension system and The history.”

“in 2015 took way responsible for that many asylum seekers were being taught English and social studies. In the united states is given the unemployed the tools to enter the labour market again, here, children from nontraditional homes have received help with their homework.”

“the adult education Movement idea makes people free. It makes them bigger. There is a school in democracy.”

“And that’s just what provokes kulturkrigshögern.”
