  • Welcome to A Swedish Fika, a podcast about the unique culture of Sweden and how it compares to life in the United States. I'm your host, PixelPia, and I have had the privilege of living and working in Sweden and the US. In this podcast, I will share my personal experiences and insights on the differences and similarities between the two countries. From the concept of "lagom" and the tradition of fika to the role of the welfare state and the challenges of integration, this podcast offers a unique perspective on the Swedish way of life. Tune in for a lively and thought-provoking discussion on what makes Sweden and the US both similar and distinct.https://aswedishfika.com

  • The Criminal Justice System in Sweden and USA
    Feb 13 2023

    Today, we will explore the criminal justice systems in Sweden and the United States. The criminal justice system is a complex network of institutions, laws, and practices that the government uses to keep people safe from crime and to ensure that those who break the law are punished fairly. In Sweden and the United States, the criminal justice system is a little different, and we're going to compare and contrast their approaches to crime and punishment. We'll examine their criminal justice system, crime rates, police, court, correctional, and alternative forms of punishment. Understanding these differences is interesting because it gives us a better idea of how each country thinks about crime and how they believe it should be dealt with. By learning about these systems, we can gain a deeper understanding of how they work and what makes them effective.

  • Higher Education
    Feb 6 2023

    Sweden is known for its strong higher education system and is rated as one of the countries with the highest student satisfaction globally. The country's educational philosophy strongly emphasizes egalitarian sustainability and critical thinking. This is reflected in the structure of higher education systems and the opportunities available to students.

    A middle-class American education is a unique experience that provides students many opportunities for personal and academic growth. Students in middle-class America have access to institutions ranging from community colleges to large educational and research universities.

    In today's show, I will compare the two.
