Right-wing populism

In Norway and Denmark, it's mainly the right-wing populist parties that have profited from the cartoon row. In Sweden, however, the situation is different, the newspaper writes. "In Sweden the Social Democrats have copied neither the programmes nor the language of the right-wing populist parties... This has nothing to do with a lack of public debate or Swedish democracy being subject to limitations. It's because the established parties act responsibly. They don't reinforce populism, they don't copy it, they don't justify it and they don't cooperate with it."
