{"product_id":"sweden-without-immigrants-jalal-taneera-9798245880068","title":"Sweden Without Immigrants!: The Identity Question and Future of the State","description":"In this book, the author presents a bold thought experiment: \u003ci\u003e\"What if immigrants suddenly disappeared from Sweden?\"\u003c\/i\u003e This hypothesis is not introduced as a political stance, but as an analytical tool to test the resilience of the welfare state, one built on stability and social trust, and now facing an unprecedented existential challenge.\u003cbr\u003eThe book examines the profound transformations Sweden has undergone, particularly after the 2015 refugee crisis, when the rhetoric of \"open doors\" gave way to more restrictive policies. It shows that migration is no longer merely an administrative or moral issue, but a structural one that touches the very core of the state and the social contract.\u003cbr\u003eThe author employs a methodology of \"structural stress testing\" to reveal the extent of Sweden's reliance on a large segment of the population with migrant backgrounds, demonstrating that their absence would lead to economic paralysis and the collapse of the pension system, especially in an increasingly aging society. The book highlights their decisive role in healthcare, elderly care, transportation, and technological innovation.\u003cbr\u003eThe book does not fall into a simplistic \"for or against\" migration binary. Instead, it balances different perspectives, drawing on international experiences and discussing issues of integration, the role of the media, and the future of the second generation.\u003cbr\u003eIn this context, the author proposes a hybrid model that balances the rule of law with fair economic integration, emphasizing that Sweden's future in the twenty-first century depends on recognizing immigrants as a structural component of both the state and society.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jalal Taneera\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798245880068\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/27\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 142\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.44lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.33d","brand":"Jalal Taneera","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48440692474111,"sku":"9798245880068","price":9.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_74abf29f-364f-4385-8a9d-b47be1a3affd.jpg?v=1777184171","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/sweden-without-immigrants-jalal-taneera-9798245880068","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
