SWE·2022 – present·enacted 2022-10-14·M + KD + L cabinet with SD support (Tido)candidate

What the policy did

Four-party written agreement (Tidöavtalet) signed 14 October 2022 among Moderaterna, Kristdemokraterna, Liberalerna and Sweden Democrats, establishing co-determined policy working groups on crime, migration, integration, energy, healthcare, and climate in exchange for SD parliamentary support of the Kristersson minority cabinet. Structural break: first formal inclusion of SD in governing policy formation.

Policy-content fingerprint — what this policy moved, on which axes

Per invariant 3, reforms are scored by what they did on each channel-separated axis, not by the party that enacted them. This fingerprint is how the policy-match engine finds historical analogues.

intended

↓

immigration openness

regulatory.immigration_openness

Immigration policy openness — work visas, family reunification, asylum processing, border enforcement posture.

decreased · strong

more restrictive (lower caps, tighter enforcement)

Agreement codifies restrictive migration turn.

↑

rule of law

institutional.rule_of_law

Rule of law as institutional substrate — contract enforcement, judicial independence, equal treatment before the law. Upstream of most other axes.

increased · weak

stronger rule of law

Expanded policing, wiretap, and witness-protection framework framed as rule-of-law strengthening; civil-liberties objections contested but not scored here.

Empirical evidence — linked hypotheses

Explicit links are curated by the author. Inferred links are hypotheses in the library that test the same axes this policy moved — the framework's answer to "what does the data say about a policy like this?".

El Salvador's FDI inflow, real-GDP growth, tourism arrivals, and business-formation rate accelerated under the Bukele era (2019-2024) relative to a Central American peer-country donor pool (Honduras, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Dominican Republic).

Per-capita crime rates (measured by police-recorded offences per 100k population, by offence type) among foreign-born residents in developed destination countries are NOT systematically higher than among native-born residents once age, gender, and socioeconomic status are controlled.

Following El Salvador's perceived success with the régimen de excepción (March 2022 onward) and the homicide-rate collapse, multiple Latin American jurisdictions enacted Bukele-style emergency measures: Honduras (Estado de Excepción in select municipalities, December 2022), Ecuador (Estado de Excepción + designation of gangs as terrorist organisations, January 2024), Peru (Estado de Emergencia in Lima/Callao, 2023-).
