500 _aThis study offers an analysis of the riots of May 2013 in Stockholm. Compared to 'Paris' or 'Borgerhout', it is indeed surprising to hear 'Stockholm' mentioned in this context. Stockholm is the capital of Sweden, a country known for the liberal character of its society and political institutions. In the Global Peace Index compiled by the Institute for Economics and Peace and published annually by The Economist, Sweden currently occupies ninth place. In 2010 it took third place. This decline is only relative; aside from Iceland, which has a sovereign grip on first place, minor fluctuations occur annually between places two to ten. Within such a context of apparent peacefulness, wealth and democracy, the riots in Stockholm came as a surprise, at least to the foreign observer. They give reason to take a fresh look at the problem of collective violence in the contemporary city.
