Chapter 10 · Sweden's modern history
Vilken förändring blev tydlig i Sveriges invandring under senare delen av 1900-talet?
What change became clear in immigration to Sweden in the later twentieth century?
Correct answer: More arrived seeking protection from war and persecution
Refugee immigration became more important than during the postwar recruitment of industrial workers. This was a change in composition, not the complete end of labour immigration.

Why this option does not fit
Fler kom främst genom industrins rekrytering i Norden
This better fits the earlier postwar period of extensive labour immigration.
Fler kom främst som återvändande jordbrukare från Amerika
Return migration from America does not explain the growing importance of refugee immigration.
Fler kom främst genom rekrytering till skogsbruket från grannländer
Forestry workers from neighbouring countries belong to earlier labour migration; the question concerns the later shift.
