En del av presentationen:
Despite his critical stance, Sanandaji, 37, has defied attempts to discount his views as those of a xenophobe. Helped by deep public policy expertise, he defends his positions with data - not anecdotes or generalizations. And he's far more scathing about the far-right Sweden Democrats than he is about the government.
As Swedes heading to the polls late next year struggle to make sense of competing claims on immigration, Sanandaji and his ideas are certain to gain ever greater prominence. "It isn't too late, as long as there is a willingness to learn from the expensive mistakes of recent years," he writes.
