In this week’s episode of the Sweden in Focus podcast, our panelists are talking about fermented herring, the biggest trial in Swedish history, how the ‘paradigm shift’ in migration policy is affecting foreigners, and the reawakening of a debate on joining the euro. This week host Paul O’Mahony is joined by The Local’s Emma Löfgren and Richard Orange, and we also hear from one of Sweden’s foremost economists, Lars Calmfors.
Here are some of the stories discussed:
