Den svenska statens dilemma : En fallstudie om samernas grupprättigheter / The Swedish government's dilemma : A case study on sami group rights

Omerdin, Sami January 2012 (has links)
The Swedish society has trough decades developed into a multicultural society. Minority groups such as Sami have been a part of the country for a long time. By being separated from the majority through culture, language etc. minorities demand the right to become independent and have the ability to practice their culture.   History show that minorities all over the world have been discriminated and abused by the majorities. Democratic procedures are often advantages for the majority. A lot of research has been made about this. The question researchers ask themselves is if the state should compensate minorities such as Sami’s by giving them group rights and if this is the right way to achieve equality and justice within a society.   The aim of this thesis is to examine how the minority group sami is being treated by the Swedish state and to analyze whether or not group rights work in the Swedish society. The research question is: Does group rights become a problem for the Swedish state? The essay applied two basic analytical positions made by Kymlicka and Kukathas. They are both publicly known by their contributions to questions on minority rights and multiculturalism. Their different perspectives were used on sami’s current position in the Swedish society and whether or not the state should or should not have group rights.   The method used in this essay includes a descriptive analysis and a case study on the sami minority group.   The conclusion of this essay is that the swedish state, even though the existents of certain group rights are still today discriminating the samis’. Furthermore, the reason why sami people still are not being treated well is because they have no political representation in Swedish politics.

De osynliga minoriteterna : En studie om minoritetsrättigheter i svensk politik mellan år 1970 och 2010

Gullberg, Sofia January 2014 (has links)
This essay examines the historical development of group rights for cultural minorities in Sweden between the years 1970 and 2010. The purpose of the study is to analyze the development of political measures taken at government level for different minority groups, foremost explaining the division that have arisen between measures aimed at the five national minorities, the Sámi, the Swedish Finns, the Roma, the Jews and the Tornedalians, and measures directed at other ethnic groups. My conclusions are that the division in Swedish public policy between one the one hand national minorities, and on the other hand immigrant groups, is in no way self-evident. The division has arisen from an international standard on how democratic states, such as Sweden, should treat their cultural minorities. Further, this division has had an immense impact in shaping public policy as well as determining the type of group rights introduced for minority groups in Sweden. A difference has also been found in how the minorities are perceived by state actors. Immigrant groups are currently perceived as less entitled to group rights due to their short presence in Sweden, whereas national minorities are seen as more entitled to group rights due to their long historic presence in the country. However, as this essay shows, this view has not always been the prevailing view in Swedish politics in the 1970s and the 1980s, a time when national minorities had little or no say in matters concerning minority rights.

Sverige och slöjan - En kvalitativ intervjustudie om bemötandet av kvinnor med slöja

Lindbäck, Marie January 2011 (has links)
Syftet med uppsatsen har varit att undersöka om Sverige som ett multikulturellt samhälle begränsar religionsfriheten och det fria valet av kultur utifrån användandet av slöja. Teorierna är Bhikhu Parekhs teori om och när man är skyldig att respektera en annan kultur; Susan Moller Okins teori om att grupprättigheter bidrar till förtryck av kvinnor inom minoriteter; och Anne Phillips teori om att sökandet efter ett jämställt samhälle i själva verket kan begränsa den fria viljan. Anne Sofie Roald och hennes redogörande av religionsfrihet i Sverige har använts som tidigare forskning. Kvalitativ forskningsintervju utgör metoden. Intervjuer av tre unga kvinnor om hur de blir bemötta i det svenska samhället utgör empirin och resultatet av undersökningen är att det svenska bemötandet inte begränsar eller bryter mot religionsfriheten med undantag om grupprättigheter fråntas och slöjan förbjuds, då det begränsar det fria valet till kultur. / The purpose of this thesis has been to investigate if Sweden, as a multicultural society, limits the freedom of religion and the free choice to culture on the basis of wearing headscarves. The theories that have been used are Bhikhu Parekhs theory regarding if and when you are obligated to respect another culture; Susan Moller Okins theory that group rights contribute to continued suppression of women within minority groups; and Anne Phillips theory regarding the search for equality in fact can result in limiting a person’s right to free will. Anne Sofie Roald and her reading upon the Swedish view on freedom of religion compose the previous research. The method that has been used is qualitative research method. Interviews with three young women wearing headscarves about how they feel they are being met in the Swedish society compose the empirical material and the result of the research is that the Swedish society does not limit the freedom of religion with exemption if the group rights is taken away and if the headscarf had been forbidden in Sweden, since it then limits the free will of culture.

Skilda världar : En studie av det svenska skolväsendet

Wennblad, Andreas January 2012 (has links)
I studien undersöks individers olika behandling i det svenska skolsystemet utifrån etnisk, kulturell och religiös härkomst. Fokus ligger på skolans styrdokument och den teoretiska utgångspunkten är den universalistiska och mångkulturalistiska perspektiven på hur en individ ska behandlas och vilka fri- och rättigheter den ska kunna åtnjuta. Studien belyser de olika perspetiven och eventuella spänningar dem emellan. Slutsaten är att båda perspektiven finns representerade i styrdokumenten och att spänningar faktiskt existerar. Där till konstateras det att det universalistiska perspektivet alltid har ett övertag gentemot det mångkulturalistiska. Det redogörs vidare för hur riksdag och regering gjort det omöjligt för rektorer att bevilja befrielse från undervisning på etnisk, kulturell och/eller religiös grund. Avslutningsvis förs en diskussion om möjliga orsaker till den problematik som existerar i de svenska skolorna och vad vidare forskning inom området skulle kunna fokusera på för att lösa dessa problem. / The study examines differences in treatment on grounds of ethnic, cultural and/ or religious group affiliation in the Swedish school system. The aim is to highlight these issues from perspectives of universalism and multiculturalism, focusing on the school's policy documents. The study is carried out by highlighting the representation of the perspectives and the tensions that may arise between them. The conclusion is that there are representations of both perspectives and that tensions do exist. In addition, it is concluded that the universalist approach has a clear advantage and that differences in treatment based on the above reasons do not find support in the school’s policy documents. Finally, possible causes for the situation found in the Swedish school system where differences in treatment do exist are discussed.

Milletsystemet : Minoritetsskydd och grupprättigheter i ett historiskt perspektiv

Alouch, Nora January 2016 (has links)
Minority protection mechanisms in international law aim to guarantee certain individual rights to persons belonging to ethnic, religious or linguistic minorities, such as freedom of culture, religion and language. These rights can be considered to be of collective interest for minority group identity and therefore often require the possibility of collective enjoyment. In addition to general human rights and principles of non-discrimination, minority protection can alternately be ensured through minority specific rights. However, minority specific rights would not operate effectively without evolving a concept of collective (or group) rights in international law. Hence, while this kind of approach can provide legal methods for balancing the interests of individuals, groups and the state, it creates the possibility of conflicts with the international framework of individual rights. The ottoman millet system sets a historical example of minority protection instruments based on a collective concept of human rights. Furthermore, the ottoman history offers an illustration of what could go terribly wrong with a collective rights model. By analyzing the millet system and the ottoman legal reforms in the nineteenth century I will discuss reoccurring issues with collective rights. I will argue that incorporating collective rights within a structure founded on individual rights is a problematic way of protecting individuals belonging to minorities and other vulnerably ethnic groups. Looking through the historical development of universal human rights some important aspects of its main principles will be brought up in this paper.
