Based on the assumption that Swedish politics is shaped in relation to the multilevel governance system within the EU, our focus in this assignment is on the interaction between Swedish national policy-making and the EU. Swedish policy-making refers to the following eleven ‘policy areas’: economic, agricultural, environmental, social, education, gender equality, asylum and migration, crime prevention, foreign and security, neighborhood and development and aid. Each policy area has been scrutinized over time, from the moment of entry into the EU of 1995 until today. 

Your task is to discuss what the membership of the EU meant for Swedish politics since Sweden became a member in 1995? Has Swedish policy-making changed in terms of: a) organization (form) and b) content (substance) as a result of European integration and the EU membership. Discuss and present in writing all 11 policy-areas / about 300 words/policy-area.
