After a political rollercoaster that lasted nearly a week, it\u2019s official: Magdalena Andersson is Sweden\u2019s first woman to serve as prime minister.

This week\u2019s post will clear that up.\u00a0 I&#8217;ll introduce this topic in English and then we&#8217;ll read an <a href=\"https:\/\/8sidor.se\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">8sidor.se<\/a> article to learn the Swedish you need to discuss this history in the making!<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><em>100 \u00e5r r\u00f6str\u00e4tt f\u00f6r kvinnor<\/em> \/ 100 years since women earned voting rights\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Aside from Magdalena Andersson becoming <em>statsminister<\/em> (prime minister), 2021 marks the 100th anniversary of the Swedish woman\u2019s right to vote. But despite serving as a beacon of the <em>j\u00e4mst\u00e4llt samh\u00e4lle<\/em> (the egalitarian society), Sweden is the last <em>nordiskt land<\/em> (Nordic country) to have a <em>kvinnlig<\/em> (female) prime minister. Gro Harlem Bruntland was the first of the Nordics when she became prime minister of Norway in 1981. It&#8217;s noteworthy to mention that neighboring European leader Angela Merkel just stepped down after 16 years in office as the German head of state.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><em>En kaotisk b\u00f6rjan<\/em>\u00a0\/ A chaotic beginning<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The story starts with a little parliamentary drama when former <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">statsminister<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/swedish\/riksdagen-drama-non-confidence-vote-vocab\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Stefan L\u00f6fven received a no-confidence vote back in June<\/a>.

After L\u00f6fven left office, <em>riksdagen godk\u00e4nde<\/em> (the parliament approved) Magdalena Andersson as the new <em>statsminister<\/em> on Wednesday, November 22.

At this time, because the coalition between <em>Socialdemokraterna <\/em>and <em>Milj\u00f6partiet<\/em> was broken, this social democratic government is considered to be <em>svag<\/em> (weak), and will depend on support from other minority parties to pass legislation going forward.<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><a href=\"https:\/\/8sidor.se\/sverige\/2021\/11\/andersson-ar-vald-igen\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Andersson \u00e4r vald igen<\/em> \/ Andersson is chosen again<\/a><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Now for a little reading!
