mellanmjölk
”Mellanmjölkens land” is a well known phrase in Sweden and used so often that it’s somehow of a cliché. So what is the implicit in the phrase? “Lagom” is a keyword in Sweden or you may translate it with just right or maybe moderate (there's no one-to-one translation of lagom).
Everything you do in Sweden has to be just right, average or moderate, it’s bad if you stand out from the crowd, and the best thing is to stay in the middle with no opinions and just follow the flow. A person that strives after “just right” or moderate will not develop to his or hers maximum potential, the best thing is to aim much higher than possible to achieve.
Is the phrase accurate or is it just a cliché? You can see it from two sides. Yes, we are very keen of what other people thinks of us. Still Sweden is one of the leading countries with regards to taking care of the environment and we are very persuasive that other countries follow the same road. And that’s kind of a stand out.

Sounds fascinating! – Do you have any links to the projects you describe, or more specific project names that would be searchable? Sounds like it would be worth writing up.
