The Riksdag MP Survey

The Riksdag survey has been conducted on eleven occasions (1969, 1985, 1988, 1994, 1996, 1998, 2002, 2006, 2010, 2014 and 2018) and thus constitutes the world's longest time series when it comes to studies of elected parliamentarians. The fact that the Riksdag Survey is conducted every term of office means a world-unique opportunity to study how our parliament has developed over time in terms of, for example, the composition of opinions, the view of democracy and representation roles.
