Social problems
Rosengård (excluding the area north of the Amiralsgatan road) was classified by the Swedish police in 2019 (with 21 other areas) for the third time in a row as one of the most vulnerable areas (the most vulnerable areas in terms of crime rate and social exclusion).
The 2009 Rosengård Study
In 2009 a heavily criticized study of Rosengård was presented. According to the study, the officially registered people in Rosengård only make up half of the actual population, and there is said to have been increasing radicalization in the past five years: "A small number of extremists get more and more power over more and more people," said the conflict researcher Magnus Ranstorp, one of the authors of the report. “Women who previously never wore a veil are forced to do so, patriarchal power structures are cemented.” According to the study, “messages glorifying violence” were spread in one to three of the 15 or so cellar mosques, and 13 or 14-year-old girls from Islamic families became while on holiday at the home of the parents forced to marry . According to the study, those who returned lived as housewives, and outside the house they only moved veiled, rarely of their own free will, but rather out of fear of some "conviction police", i. H. Groups of male youth harassing those who they believe are “un-Islamic”. In addition, the audience in some of the cellar mosques and Islamic free schools are said to have been asked by radical preachers to avoid Swedish society and disregard basic democratic rules. In public schools, some parents required that boys and girls should not sit in the same school desk and that girls should learn to sew while boys were taking physical education. However, the study was only written with information from 30 indirect sources, without own observations in Rosengård, and was heavily criticized.
2008 riots
Between December 18 and 20, 2008, serious riots broke out in the Herrgården district between mostly young people and the police. This was preceded by the planned evacuation of an occupied cellar mosque. Several cars caught fire, and there were also bomb threats against a gas station. Young people themselves forced rescuers to retreat through stone throwing and fireworks, and several people were arrested in connection with the unrest. According to official information, it was mainly autonomous forces that were behind the unrest and an association of the autonomous groups also supported it.
