- Why are some radical right parties included in government coalitions, while others are isolated from political cooperation through a cordon sanitaire? This book addresses this question through a study of how mainstream parties in Sweden have responded to the challenge of a radical right party: the Sweden Democrats. Sweden has been a puzzling case both in a comparative European perspective and in light of established theories of party competition. Rather than co-opting the restrictive immigration policies of the Sweden Democrats, the Swedish mainstream parties jointly converged on liberal policies. Despite their infuential position in parliament, moreover, the Sweden Democrats have been systematically excluded from government formation. This book argues that we need not invoke the idea of qualitatively different ‘pariah’ parties in order to make sense of such isolation of the radical right. Instead, it can be explained in terms of the strategic incentives of rival parties engaged in the pursuit of policy, office, and votes.
