Eudoxa article wins Swedish newspaper silver medal

The Swedish daily newspaper Svenska Dagbladet has been awarded a silver medal in the cathegory "informative graphics" by the Society for Newspaper Design.

The award was given for the article Sanningen om politiken avslöjas written by the Eudoxa think tank's research director Anders Sandberg based on his study of Swedish politics.

Eudoxa wishes to congratulate Svenska Dagbladet and its staffers Anders Mildner, Joakim Larsson, and Susen Schultz to the prize. It is particularly pleasing that Eudoxa could show with the article how powerful social software has become, and that modern graphics can tell new facts about network interaction. A few years ago, a study such as Eudoxa's would have taken the effort of a political science faculty at a university. Today, this work is possible to do at a PC at home and some public databases. Data mining has become commonplace.
