In a postmodern world where the very existence of facts and truths is increasingly questioned, Swedish society is exposed to great pressures in both domestic and security policy.

Former Director General Björn Körlof has edited and co-authored a valuable paper on these problems from a European perspective within the framework of the Academy of War Sciences' SES project. See https://kkrva.se/bookstore/produkt/ideologisk-sprangkraft-inom-eu/.

Political values ​​co-vary in various ways with political changes and upheavals, both as cause and effect.

In the SES project's soon-to-be-released final security policy report, this is an important theme in the description and analysis of the challenges that liberal democracy, as a system and a foundation of values, is exposed to in today's world, both from the East and the South.

In the podcast's two parts - one shorter and one longer - these problems are discussed with Michael Sahlin and Lars-Erik Lundin.
