462: The Dream of the Perfect Society

462: The Dream of the Perfect Society

In one way or another, all parties can be derived from one of the major ideologies; socialism, liberalism and conservatism. These currents of ideas are accompanied by a dream of a perfect (or at least aspirational) society – a so-called utopia.

The political game is guested this time by political scientist Katarina Barrling, who helps us understand which ideological forces drive our parties, and which utopias they dream of when they present their policies. So put on the reading glasses and the tweed jacket, because now it’s going to be a high-flying utopian school.
