- T-A 10y ago13 years ago, reviews like this one graced the mainstream Swedish press: http://www.svd.se/fran-svenskhet-till-delaktighet-7NY3 http://www.svd.se/fran-svenskhet-till-delaktighet-7NY3 It's about a book by an activist-turned-politician-turned-author who spent a few weeks living in one of those places (Rosengård) after several well-publicized incidents, trying to understand their causes. The book's title is a reference to rock-throwing immigrant youths; they mostly seem to target police cars, but ambulances, fire brigades and other ethnicities than their own are also at risk. It's still going on. The failure of integration in Sweden is not a new problem. It just keeps getting rediscovered over and over again.
