What Happens When Summer's Predicted Big... →

Foreign Policy: We're All Swedes Now →
With the U.S. release this week of the final installment of Stieg Larsson’s Millennium trilogy + +, the English-speaking world is again given a chance to indulge in a view of Scandinavia that is entirely dystopian. In Larsson’s Sweden, the police are useless where they are not corrupt; the countryside is full of violent drug dealers; the rich are utterly unprincipled. This is no...
