    Despite the rightwing government currently in power in Sweden, calls to change the employment model are rare.

    I thought rightwing means conservative, do they use the word to mean pro-capitalist now?

      That is what “right wing” means in this part of the world. Liberals and conservatives usually work together when they can form the government.

      As it always been. The democrats are right-wing in Europe and the republicans are more on the right.

      In Europe, you can’t dissociate the economic agenda of a party. The right is pro-capitalist and neoliberalism. The center too. The left is different. They are for a regulate capitalism and the more on the left, the heaviest on regulations.
