1	Från mörkret stiga vi mot ljuset : den tidiga svenska arbetarrörelsens strategiska musikanvändning Holmgren, Per January 2014 (has links) Den här uppsatsen handlar om den svenska arbetarrörelsens musikanvändning. Rörelsens användande av musik belyses och analyseras ur ett historiskt, politiskt och strategiskt perspektiv. Uppsatsen belyser arbetarrörelsens tidiga period i Sverige, vilket innebär att senare år och nutida perspektiv inte står i fokus. Den tidiga arbetarrörelsen definieras som rörelsens verksamhet mellan åren 1880 fram till ca 1925, innan rörelsen fått den självklara plats som en svensk kontemporär och historisk politisk maktfaktor den idag har. Uppsatsen fokuserar även på arbetarrörelsens syn på musik, kultur och kulturarv och hur rörelsens musikanvändning och kultursyn har format framväxandet den kommunala musikskolan. Slutligen ställs frågan vilka paralleller som kan göras mellan arbetarrörelsens musikanvändning och främjandet av det underifrånperspektiv historikern Howard Zinn talar om, när han argumenterar för att belysa historieforskning från de förtrycktas perspektiv. Metoden som används är intervjuer som utförts med verksamma politiker ur arbetarrörelsen, både ur Vänsterpartiet och Socialdemokraterna. De intervjuade har olika kopplingar till kultur och merparten arbetar direkt med kulturfrågor inom politiken. Den hypotes jag arbetat med är att musiken haft en viktig och betydande roll för att samla människor i den svenska arbetarrörelsen. Musiken har varit genomsyrande och använts genomgående i det politiska arbetet för den svenska arbetarrörelsen. Kultur och musik har även varit en betydande strategisk komponent för rörelsens utbredning, tillväxt och förmåga att hantera politiska problem och motgångar.

Political revolution and civil wars shook several countries. The Russian February and October Revolutions were soon followed by uprisings in countries such as Germany and Finland. While the social and political history of this period, with its mass demonstrations for bread and voting rights, often called the Swedish revolution, has been covered extensively in existing research, we know much less about the theoretical understanding of revolution among Swedish socialists. This thesis examines the concept of revolution from a perspective inspired by the Begriffsgeschichte of German historian Reinhart Koselleck. This foundation in the history of concepts aims at understanding how Swedish socialists, in a wide sense, understood their own time, how they related to the past and what they expected from the future, during the years of the First World War and the immediately following years. By focusing on what might be the most central, but also the most contested and most difficult to define, concept I hope to complement earlier research focusing on the social and political history of the period and its socialist movements. The main purpose of the thesis is to analyse how the labour movement understood revolution with particular weight placed upon the theoretical and ideological tensions between revolution and reform, determinism and voluntarism and localized and universal revolution. The starting point is the political and social changes in Sweden and abroad at that time and the place of the political press as opinion leaders capable of negotiating the space of political action. A secondary aim is to discuss how focusing on temporality can inspire new perspectives on the use of conceptual history. My research shows that how the concept of revolution was used was shaped both by already established notions regarding the socialist revolution as well as by the political situation at hand. The October Revolution forced a sharpening of its meaning, wherein different factions elaborated their understanding of it in relation to each other, which in turn determined how the concept was used fom that point on.

3	"Mot allt, som plågar mej, jag reagerar" : Känslorna och det proletära subjektet i Karl Östmans litterära verk / ”Against all that torments me, I react” : Feeling and the proletarian subject in the literary works of Karl Östman Lillhannus, Daniela January 2020 (has links) This thesis explores the representation of emotion and feeling in the 1910’s and 1920’s fictional works of Swedish working class writer Karl Östman, against the historical background of the working class movement and its social communities. The material consists mainly of three collections of short stories (Pilgrims, A Fiddle and a Woman and Hunger) and one novel (The Broad Road). The author analyses how emotions arise and are represented, the relationship between emotion and action, the individual and collective practices of feeling, as well as the emotional reactions following suffering. Dreams of love and compassion are also addressed to investigate whether the texts point to the possibility of a new emotional community for the working class. The theoretical basis of the thesis is Barbara H. Rosenwein’s concept of ”emotional communities”, along with Sara Ahmed’s theories of emotions as patterns of action. The thesis argues that all actions in Östman’s fiction are, fundamentally, emotional reactions. To gain an understanding of capitalism and class society as the causes of oppression, Östman’s characters must first understand their own emotions from the perspective of a socialist emotional community, rather than the prevailing emotional community of working class men. Only then can their emotional response to suffering become anger and action rather than hopelessness. Östman identifies the great shame of the worker not as his vulnerable position under capitalism but as the culture of non-feeling that workers impose on one another – a change of perspective that becomes a call for action. If read attentive to the role of emotions in the text, the thesis argues, Östman’s fiction possesses an urgency and a complexity previously not accredited to him.

4	Arbetarrörelsen inom den radikala konstmusikens tankekollektiv : En studie av relationen mellan det radikala musiklivet och arbetarrörelsen under svenskt 1960-tal / Labourism within the Thought Collective of Radical Art Music : A Study of the Relationship between the Radical Music Scene and the Labour Movement in Sweden during the 1960s Petersson, Tobias January 2014 (has links) Subject of this study is the evolvement of the radical art music scene in Sweden. In this development took the labour movement an active part during the 1960s. The purpose of this study is to examine how the relationship between the radical art music scene and the labour movement was constituted and what this relationship implied for the Swedish radical art music scene during the 1960s. During the 1960s radical music became an influencial part in the Swedish music scene of modern art music. In this development the artists’ society Fylkingen had a central position. In the early 1960s Fylkingen began to incorporate writers, engineers, scientists, sociologists, philosophers, economists, etc. in their work and a number of projects were initiated which interacted with common society. A proposal for a public record company was developed together with KSF (Social Democratic Association for Cultural Workers) and was presented to the Swedish parliament. In collaboration with ABF (Workers’ Educational Association) the first studio for electronic music was build in 1960 and the relationship between the labour movement and the radical art music scene was institutionalized as the Stockholm Electronic Music Studio Foundation. This thesis uses the terminology of Ludwik Fleck to examine the relationship between the radical art music scene and the labour movement. The concepts of Thought collective and Thought-style are used to draw conclusions about common values and objectives within the Thought-style. The radical art music scene and the labour movement are understood to be part of a common Thought collective with a common style of thought. Because of this relationship, projects initiated in the radical music scene came to emphasize the democratic and educational aspects of music. In the latter half of the 1960s it was conceived impossible to achieve these goals under the existing program, leading to the notion within the style of thought that technological advancement was a prerequisite for a democratic music scene.
