Viktigt också komma ihåg att en eventuell flyktingkris i första hand är en kris som drabbar flyktingarna själva, i andra hand närområdet, och först i tredje hand länder längre bort som t ex Sverige. Stängda gränser löser inte grundproblemet.
De som vill till Sverige har i snitt högre utbildning och inkomst, bor oftare i städer och är mindre religiösa. Personer från Iran som kommer till Sverige har sannolikt goda möjligheter att integreras ekonomiskt, socialt och kulturellt i det svenska samhället.
De allra flesta i Iran vill inte lämna landet (ca 80%). Av dem som vill lämna, vill flest till Tyskland (ca 20%), följt av Kanada och USA. Sverige är 7:e populärast (ca 5%), men i relation till befolkningsstorlek i toppen. (Obs siffror baserade på data fram till 2023.)

"Putin’s support increased despite the war" — @futures-studies.bsky.social reports about a study by @ollehammar.bsky.social and co-authors 👇
"Det blir som en ny slags klasskillnad, mellan bostadsägare och de som hyr sina bostäder", säger @ollehammar.bsky.social, nationalekonom som forskar på förmögenhet och ojämlikhet i Sverige.
👏 Huge congratulations to @s-stantcheva.bsky.social (who recently also became affiliated with our new Linnaeus University Centre for Equality of Opportunity and Big Data Policy Analysis)! 🤩
🚨 Call for Papers 🚨 We are pleased to invite submissions to Linnaeus Inequality Summit, a new annual research conference organized by Linnaeus University Centre of Excellence Equality of Opportunity and Big Data Policy Analysis. The conference will take place on June 2-3, 2026, in Växjö, Sweden.
Following the invasion of Ukraine, Putin’s approval jumped by 13 percentage points – an effect echoed in Gallup data showing a 25 percentage point rise between 2021 and 2022. Crucially, this was not confined to any one group: men and women, young and old, rich and poor all showed similar surges. Only Muscovites showed no significant change. It is a common hope that Russia’s war with Ukraine will erode domestic support for the Kremlin. This column uses individual-level survey data to show instead that the invasion produced a sharp and enduring surge in pro-Kremlin sentiment. The subsequent partial mobilisation only briefly depressed support. Russians living abroad, however, became markedly more critical of Putin following the invasion. The findings suggest that hopes for regime change from within, driven by public war-weariness, are likely misplaced at least in the near term.
