My research questions are; have the Social Democrats and theModerates gotten closer within: 1) Labor market policies, 2) Education policies, 3) The viewof migration and integration between 1990-2013. My method is to read party programmesfrom both parties starting year 1990 and 1993, 2001 and 2013, by using this approach I willsee how the parties have developed alongside each other within the areas of subject.My conclusions are that the two parties have gotten closer within labor market policies andeducation policies. In the case of labor market policies it is the Moderates that have gottencloser the Social Democrats and its rhetoric surrounding the worker?s secure units and theSocial Democrats have gotten closer the Moderates by wanting facilitates for companies.When it comes to the education policies the Social Democrats and the Moderates have hadsimilar opinions since 1990, but in the party programme for year 2013 the Social Democratsstates that Sweden needs more options for the public operating mode of education, somethingthat they previously rejected and the Moderates advocated.
