Orientalism i svensk mediaHajo, Sipan January 2009 (has links)
<p>This essay is based on Edward Saids magnum opus, Orientalism. Orientalism is the notion on the division between the Occident (west) and the Orient (east) stemming primarily from the colonial age. Said states that the great colonial powers of the 19<sup>th</sup> and 18<sup>th</sup> century, through various science projects, created a view of the east as its own opposite, I.e. as everything opposite to modernization and so called enlightenment, two components affiliated with the west. According to Said these moral and intellectual standards, to this day, penetrate all aspects of western society and are observed in all kinds of institutions, for example the academic world and the media. The essay observes several rapports in two of Sweden leading papers, Expressen and Aftonbladet, concerning the terrorist attacks in London 2005 and analyzes them through a discourse analysis. The purpose of the essay is to find out whether the rapports show any signs of what Said defines as orientalism. The main focus is on the power structures which make up the language used in the rapports and analyzing them through the lens of Orientalism. The analysis show that the rapports in Expressen clearly express a view which verifies Saids theory. The division between”we” I.e. the west and ”them”, the east, is sharp in this case. However the rapports in Aftonbladet show no clear signs of Orientalism and are quite different from the ones presented in Expressen.</p>

"Det upplevda hotet mot nationen" : - En kvalitativ studie av radikal högerpopulism bland Sverigedemokraternas väljareGunnarsson, Sofia, Ottosson, Angela January 2013 (has links)
Sverigedemokraterna är ett radikalt högerpopulistiskt parti som fortsätter att öka sedan valet år 2010. Vid en opinionsundersökning i april 2012 skulle partiet få 8 procent av medborgarnas röster. Syftet med vår uppsats är att förstå och förklara vilka orsaker som ligger till grund för att allt fler medborgare röstar på Sverigedemokraterna. För att kunna besvara syftet med uppsatsen har vi valt att göra en kvalitativ studie genom att med semistrukturerade intervjuer undersöka upplevelser och attityder till dagens samhällsförändringar bland Sverigedemokraternas väljare och relatera deras upplevelser till tidigare forskning inom ämnet. För att besvara vårt syfte blir frågeställningarna följande: På vilket sätt kan SD som parti locka allt fler väljare i dagens globaliserade Sverige? Vilka faktorer kan ligga till grund för att vissa medborgare röstar på SD? Samt vad tror de att SD kan bidra med och förändra i det svenska samhället och mer specifikt för deras egen situation? Vårt teoretiska ramverk är globalisering, representationen ”Vi och Dom”, nation/nationalism och välfärdschauvinism. Med dessa teorier kommer vi ur ett sociologiskt perspektiv förklara vilka samhällsprocesser som interagerar med väljarnas vardagssituation och därmed ligger till grund för deras politiska beslut. Det slutgiltiga resultatet visar att radikal högerpopulistisk retorik är genomgående i samtliga intervjuer. Invandring och välfärdsfrågor var det viktigaste faktorerna till varför intervjupersonerna röstade på Sverigedemokraterna. / The Sweden Democrats is a radical right wing party who continue to increase since the elections in 2010. At a poll in April 2012, the party would get 8 percent of the votes. The purpose of our paper is to understand and explain the reasons underlying that more and more citizens vote for the Sweden Democrats. To be able to respond to the purpose of the paper, we have chosen to make a qualitative study by using semi-structured interviews examine the experiences and attitudes of today's social changes among the Sweden Democrats ' voters and relate their experiences to the previous research on the subject. To answer our purpose becomes the following questions: In what way can the SD as an increasing number of voters in the party attract today's globalized Sweden? What factors can serve as the basis for that some citizens vote on SD? What do they think that SD can contribute and change in Swedish society and more specifically for their own situation? Our theoretical framework is globalization, representation "We and Them" nation/nationalism and welfare-chauvinism. With these theories we come from a sociological perspective to explain what social processes that interact with voters ' living situation and thus is the basis for their policy decisions. The final result shows that radical right wing rhetoric is consistently in all interviews. Immigration and welfare issues were the main factors why the respondents voted for the Sweden Democrats.
