Very interesting and educational. Love the country. I whish people in the world could learn from Sweden how to live in piece and be generous to the nature and to other human beings. So many interesting ideas that are not being implemented in other part of the planet. They don't seems too hard. Just desire and devotion. Why? Why it is so hard to understand.
I agree...Jag alskar sverige...Forever....Best inovative and greenest country in the whole world....I miss this country..I will be back...Wait for me...
This is great... I really enjoyed it... I used to live in Stockholm 50 years ago, [from England], and it was wonderful to see what the city looks like today, and also learn some things that I didn't know before. Thank you... Nice job.
Amazing documentary! So true! I work as a Sthlm guide and still found new ideas and info in it. Especially the ending part was so true. Everything the guy said I can totally identify with. Thanks for this video. Only sad thing about it are some of the comments below.....
The french journalist dosen't know what he's talking about. The social democrats came to power in 1932, not in the 1850s. Sweden stopped beeing poor because other countries invested in Sweden and we were able to use our natural resources. This was in the late 1800s, before socialism. Also, Germany didn't occupy Finland. It was the (obviously socialist) journalists buddies in the Soviet Union trying to invade Finland. They reluctantly allied themselves with Germany. Sweden sent voluntarily fighters to Finland to aid in the struggle against communism.
there is a difference between social-democracy and socialism. Thats mainly an american fallacy, and/or a conservative one. Also, its as worn out a subject as sweden being "sexually liberal". Sweden isnt socialist, any more than Canada.
Well, that apartment talk was kind of bullshit. All of my friends own their own apartment in Stockholm. That waiting list is only if you want a "council" apartment and they are gradually becoming privately owned anyway...
+thomasliangus What's that got to do with communism? It's a good thing knowing the words you use, before you use them. If you want to book a hotel, and there are no rooms in any hotel, what do you do? Become a communist? Will that help you? No, you wait until there's a free room.
I think those immigrants talking bad about Sweden should move away as far as possibale - This country is a paradise for immigrants and they should not ask for too much before they compared it with GB, Germany, USA, France or Italy
What are you smoking? Instead of complaining, make some babies. Be a part of the solution, don't just sit on the sidelines bitching. And as a Norwegian: Maybe your priority (if bitching is what you're going for) should be to get Swedes wanting to work and live in Sweden. You don't seem very pragmatic or solution oriented.
0.19: "We have water, we have forests, we have a lot of animals." Oh Buddy, which other Country could claim the Possession of water, Woods and livestock ? Are you really so simple ? I am afraid: YES !
It's the biggest city in Sweden. You can't go to New York, London or L.A. and expect to see wildlife and forests. That's the comparison he was trying to make.
This video isn't about any of those other places or diminishing how nice they are. The guy was just stating facts that in Stockholm there are forests, wildlife and water & that it isn't just a concrete patch of buildings like other major cities. In your quote "which other Country could claim the Possession of water, Woods and livestock?" - A majority of countries on this earth can claim this. But, he wasn't talking about countries, he was talking about a city.He didn't state that there is nowhere else that has these things. There are other major cities that do have those things & that's great. There's no reason to be sour at what he said.
The French guy understand the "Lagom" and consensus mentality but lack understanding on why Sweden excelled, such as the economic growth started around 1880 and the base for the swedish success was built during the following 50 years. Furthermore that Sweden allowed transportation of troops to attack and occupy Norway and Finland is also factually wrong. The transportation through Sweden was mainly troops "on leave" from the war in Russia together during their war brotherhood with Finland. Real troop transports in Norway was during a time when they already had capitulated.
The sewer is going in to a Water clean plant and Than out in Mälaren in to another clean plant and being dring/Wash Water Again so the Water in our toilets is relly dirty and smell bad some Times but the drink and Wash Water is clean and tasting relly good
+Peter Grant Indeed. While some people came from the outside, the absolute majority was other swedes from the surrounding area. As a swede, and knowing my people, I would bet that the woman saying this is most probably a leftist.
32:51 that fact is heavily incorrect. A 1 bedroom apartment in the city is between 7-15,000 SEK, and outside the city it's 4,6-11,000 SEK. www.numbeo.com/cost-of-living/in/Stockholm
Anders: "We get so much back from our taxes" Yeah, like our elderly get neglected and almost starve in the retirement homes but we can pay from houndereds upon thousands of migrants from the third world. Trust the government!
This was interesting until the political statement at towards the end. It was boring cliche and unnecessary to the context of the programme. Immigrants when given the power in any society manifest their own prejudices in the power plays. It is human nature so all you immigrants don't take the moral high ground because we can see through your " poor wee us " claims. The immigrants bring religion and we in Sweden are maturing out of the talons and divisivenesses that the ignorant religious bring. Come and live with us we have no problem but leave your tribal religions at the border before entering our great land. As Christopher Hitchens once said " Religion poisons everything ".
Religion is fake and was devised to control stupid people. Only intelligent people evolve out of religion. That is why the west brought us the modern world. The western brain managed to grow up and become intelligent. Now the freaky religious muslims want to come to the west and change our free thinking to that of their backward primitive thinking. This is why the west laughs at Islam ? the west no longer believes in voices from the clouds or in flying horses. Religion especially those of Abraham have always been laughed at by the worlds intelligent for hundreds of years. The Vatican still thinks it is relevant today but it is not,it is a relic of an evil past in Europe. Europe is now free of childish religions.
your statement is a seed for potential extreme-right-ism. But I agree with you about that last political bits. It was very unusual in Waterfront Cities program
Funny at the 23:00 mark how they think the helicopter ride to a hospital is "free, well we pay taxes..." - yea, how much are you paying, 80%? NOTHING is "FREE" unless you are completely freeloading!!!
Im just saying it stockholms drink Water is taste better Than all cities i have been in but by the way Stockholm is bigger Than you can think it's relly one of europés biggest cities and it's looks a litle bit like London
the guy at the end bringing his own view of sweden's imigration polisy that is of course "poor us"-one sided ...while walking slightly in front of the lady.really emancipated young man.i guess it's his sweden..
Capital green city and a beautiful city (maybe the best in the world) but "The land of ideas" is a denomination more tightly associated to Germany :) " Land of ideas would have been more appropriated because it's a dynamo of ideas although not the top and certainly not at the level of Germany. It fits better "the best managed city in the world" because all of the aspects in a society are well proportioned like investment on science, ecology, distribution of wealth, equilibrated welfare state, sporty population, leisure time, daily calories, etc.
Ville Svensson Thank you :) You have such a beautiful country and proud heritage. It's very sad to see that being threatened by the Muslim immigration.
It's actually an integration problem, not an immigration problem. To be honest, if we learn how to integrate the immigrants into our society, Sweden will benefit a lot. More hard working people = more money. Almost all crimes in Sweden are commited in suburbs with extremely high immigrant populations. It's not their culture that make them bad. It's their bad childhoods and the fact that society has betrayed them. With almost no native Swedes in these suburbs, the immigrants will have a hard time learning swedish, and that means they probably won't complete their education. And because of the high demand of well-educated workforces, these people will probably only be able to become taxi drivers or waiters, if even that. And because most of the immigrants come from war-torn countries, a lot of the children will have war-torn parents that show no emotions or affection. This is the real problem, and it's a very complicated one to solve. I am afraid it has gone too far already, since the only easy way to solve this is that swedes move to these areas. But since criminality is pretty common there, no one wants to. As I said, it's not their culture or their genes, it's the failed integration that is the root of this problem.
Maverick, you're welcome to stay the fuck out then. Swedes tend to dislike negatives like you, and as you saw in the video, we're very pragmatic, and thus, your failed view of things in a macro perspecting brings us nothing of value.
Very interesting and educational. Love the country. I whish people in the world could learn from Sweden how to live in piece and be generous to the nature and to other human beings.

A dream city.
Love the cleverly placed in-screen annotation in this series!

i love Sweden too, it's the most wonderful place i've ever visited
it's way better than England
This is great... I really enjoyed it... I used to live in Stockholm 50 years ago, [from England], and it was wonderful to see what the city looks like today, and also learn some things that I didn't know before. Thank you... Nice job.
Stockholm a beautiful city and a very good informative programme too
it's very interesting to watch
"Venice of the north", amazing and extraordinary city.. up from Italy!
Amazing documentary! So true! I work as a Sthlm guide and still found new ideas and info in it. Especially the ending part was so true. Everything the guy said I can totally identify with. Thanks for this video.
Only sad thing about it are some of the comments below.....
Supberb Video, full of very intersesting facts, also some lovely scenery, 10*+++++
Thx for the documentary, interesting city and out skirts. As I'm heading my way to this beautiful city this summer.
Also; Södermalm isn't the elegant part of Stockholm. Östermalm is the elegant part of Stockholm.
true
Is that supposed to be a joke? Average square meter prices differ a good chuck less than 10% between Södermalm and Östermalm.
Tensta is the model for the new Stockholm. The leftist dream without white people.
It's a city's model, really stunnig and beautiful.
I've been there.
The city that make other cities envy!
The french journalist dosen't know what he's talking about.
The social democrats came to power in 1932, not in the 1850s.
Sweden stopped beeing poor because other countries invested in Sweden and we were able to use our natural resources. This was in the late 1800s, before socialism.
Also, Germany didn't occupy Finland. It was the (obviously socialist) journalists buddies in the Soviet Union trying to invade Finland.
They reluctantly allied themselves with Germany. Sweden sent voluntarily fighters to Finland to aid in the struggle against communism.
so him being socialist means that he is an communist. Makes sense then that socialist Sweden helped Finland fight The communist Soviet Union
there is a difference between social-democracy and socialism. Thats mainly an american fallacy, and/or a conservative one. Also, its as worn out a subject as sweden being "sexually liberal". Sweden isnt socialist, any more than Canada.
Christian Westling every nation is rich we dont need british monetary scam
Well, that apartment talk was kind of bullshit. All of my friends own their own apartment in Stockholm. That waiting list is only if you want a "council" apartment and they are gradually becoming privately owned anyway...
+uclalse The waiting list really scared me. Making Sweden sounds like a communist country...
+Carlos Saraiva True. In communist countries the people usually know that they are in a dictatorship.
+thomasliangus What's that got to do with communism? It's a good thing knowing the words you use, before you use them. If you want to book a hotel, and there are no rooms in any hotel, what do you do? Become a communist? Will that help you? No, you wait until there's a free room.
ideas that all cities should think about to adapt/copy or think about.
"all swedes have their own boat. Or maybe not all, but most" någon som lever i en liten bubbla?
+Johan Hjalmarsson Mja, 4 000 000 båtar i Sverige, båttätast i Europa.
Christian Westling Jo, för visso. men slå ut det på ~9.5 miljoner invånare och faktumet att en del personer äger mer än en båt.
Venice. The Stockholm of the south.
I am coming to Stockholm. Just waiting for me, dear!
i come in september! I'm glad to know your wonderful city!
A 2 rooms apartment in Stockholm is atleast $1 000 000.
