Review of Tolerera in Expo #2-2012

Louise Djurberg reviews the anthology Tolerera in the Swedish magazine Expo's June issue (#2 2012). Expo is published by The Expo Foundation, which according to their website "is a privately-owned research foundation founded in 1995 with the aim of studying and mapping anti-democratic, right-wing extremist and racist tendencies in society".

Djurberg has perfectly understood one significant point with the anthology when she writes:

"The authors are from different areas within the field of psychology, something which is reflected in the texts that differ from each other both in content and style. When reading the anthology at first it gives a rather sprawling impression - but there's a point with these differences. Together they form a whole that shows that the strength lies in acceptance of differences rather than in striving for conformity."

Other mentions in the press include an article by Liria Ortiz in the major Swedish newspaper Dagens Nyheter on August 3 and the June issue of Lärarnas Nyheter (The Teachers' News) and in Svenska Dagbladet by Ricki Neuman on May 5

All these news outlets are in the Swedish language.
