And now I am here
»Och nu är jag här.
I ett land som i fyra decennier haft en socialdemokratisk regering.
I ett samhälle där opinioner, debatt, skolväsen – hela samhällsklimatet
formats av detta socialdemokratiska etablissemang.
Och jag grips av samma förlamande depression, samma
kvävningskänslor som i 1930-talets monolitiska Finland.»
Marianne Alopaeus, Drabbad
av Sverige (1983)
