Nyhetsmediernas rapportering om mördare : En kvalitativ innehållsanalys av svenska tidningsmedier / News media reports of murderers : A qualitative content analysis of Swedish newspaper mediaLundevall, Gabriella, Rönn Westling, Natalie January 2021 (has links)
Syftet med studien är att skapa en djupare förståelse för hur manliga- och kvinnliga mördare porträtteras i nyhetsmedia samt de eventuella skillnader som finns i porträtteringen. Fokus ligger på att se om det finns ett tydligt mönster för hur dessa fyra mördare porträtteras i media samt skillnader mellan en manlig mördare och en kvinnlig mördare som har begått snarlika brott. Tidigare forskning har visat på att det finns skillnader i porträtteringen när det kommer till manliga förövare och kvinnliga förövare. Man har kunnat se att kvinnliga förövare smutskastas mer av media än manliga förövare. För att undersöka porträtteringen av mördare i media utgår denna studie utifrån en kvalitativ innehållsanalys. Materialet i studien består av 40 svenska nyhetsartiklar varav 10 artiklar på vardera mördaren från olika svenska tidningar. Detta material har sedan analyserats med hjälp en innehållsanalys. Resultatet från analysen visar att kvinnliga mördare porträtteras i media utefter det brott de har begått samt deras normbrytande beteende. När det kommer till de manliga mördarna så porträtteras dessa endast utefter det brott som de har begått. Slutsatsen som kan dras av studien är att det finns ett mönster hur man porträtterar manliga mördare mot hur man porträtterar kvinnliga mördare. Kvinnliga mördares beteenden och karaktär anses vara mer avvikande vid denna typ av brott än manliga mördares. Vilket gör att man kan dra likheter från tidigare forskning och därav se ett mönster i porträtteringen i media. Svenska nyhetstidningar har en tendens att beskriva kvinnliga mördare på ett komplext sätt genom att porträttera deras brott samt normbrytande beteende vilket leder till ett större fokus och mer skriverier kring kvinnliga mördare i nyhetsmedia än manliga mördare. / The aim of this study is to create a deeper understanding about how male- and female murderers are depicted in the news and to see if there is any difference in the depiction. The focus is to see if there is a pattern between four murderers, two female and two males, and how they are depicted in the media. We also want to see if there is a difference between male and female murderers who committed similar crimes. Previous research shows that there is a difference in how the depiction of male and female murderers. Female offenders are more often befouled then their male counterpart. To examine how the media depict the murderers this study originates from a qualitative content analysis. The material that we base our study on is 40 Swedish articles from different media, ten articles on each murderer from different newspapers. The results we found were that the female murderers are portrayed by media by their crime and norm-breaking behavior. The male murderers are portrayed only after their crime. The conclusion is that we can see a pattern in how media depict male and female murderers and that there is a differs in-between male and female murderers. Swedish newspapers tend to describe female murderers in a more complex way by depicting their crimes and norm braking behavior which leads to a bigger focus and more articles revolving female murderers in the news then male murderers.

Scruffy Masculinities : A visual analysis of gay bear representations in Walter Van Beirendonck’s runwaysSuman, Iulian January 2021 (has links)
Despite the vast research regarding non-conformative bodies, there is little material on the gay bear representation in fashion modeling. This thesis investigates the bear embodiment in the runway shows of Walter Van Beirendonck, respectively W&LT Autumn/Winter 1995–1996 Paradise Pleasure Productions, W&LT Autumn/Winter 1996-1997 Wonderland, Walter Van Beirendonck Spring/Summer 2010 Wonder, and Walter Van Beirendonck Spring/Summer 2011 Read My Skin. Critical visual analysis follows the gay bear symbolism in the video recordings of the runways, revealing how it challenges the fashion industry’s body standards and, in a broader frame, the dictates of hegemonic masculinity. The concepts of gender performativity and biopower provide the theoretical frame of the study, while Madison Moore’s theory of ‘fabulousness’ and José Esteban Muñoz’s understanding of ‘utopia’ lead to the articulation of performances both masculine and queer. The findings lead to the discovery of non-dual and body-inclusive gay bear embodiments that challenge the relationship between body and dress and can extend beyond the limits of the runway.

Challenging Hegemonic Masculinity Through the Use of Epic Fantasy : Using The Way of Kings by Brandon Sanderson to analyze hegemonic masculinity and its potential for classroom appropriation.Jakobsson, Viktor January 2022 (has links)
The aim of this thesis is to argue that using the novel The Way of Kings by Brandon Sanderson to explore the concepts of gender roles, with masculinity and its hegemonic aspect at the forefront, through the fields of gender studies and gender pedagogy, will provide grounds for meaningful classroom discussions and activities in the Swedish upper secondary school by drawing parallels between the fictional society presented in the novel and our own. Three main traits of hegemonic masculinity are analyzed and applied to the characters Kaladin, Dalinar and Jasnah, namely physical assertiveness, egocentric individualism, and domination. The novel’s potential for use within the Swedish upper secondary school, specifically in the course English 7, is analyzed. The domination trait of hegemonic masculinity was found noticeably absent in the three protagonists, while this trait could be found amongst the novel’s antagonists. Potential was found in using the novel to lessen the effects of the boy crisis in the Swedish school system.

A Worm in an Apple : An analysis of hegemonic masculinity, personal responsibility and the nature of the Shadow in Ursula K. Le Guin’s A Wizard of EarthseaMaddy Hansson, Gwendolyn January 2022 (has links)
In this paper, Ursula K Le Guin’s 1968 fantasy novel, A Wizard of Earthsea will be investigated in two ways. First, through a thematic analysis of the primary antagonist through a deconstructive close-reading technique. Second, through a pedagogic analysis of the depiction of hegemonic masculinity in the novel. The thematic analysis reveals that Le Guin departs from the typical expectations of the fantasy genre to highlight the themes of accepting personal responsibility and acknowledging the consequences of one’s actions, values which are reflected in the Swedish national curriculum. The pedagogic analysis of Le Guin’s treatment of hegemonic masculinity in school culture has the further potential to be used in an EFL classroom setting as part of a teaching unit problematizing the performance of hegemonic masculinity in modern school culture. This is also reflected in the central content for the English Syllabus. / <p>Due to Covid-19 restrictions/precautions, the final presentation seminar took place over Zoom.</p>

En ny mansbild? : En kvalitativ studie av de manliga huvudkaraktärerna i serierna Skam och Normala människor / A new male image? : A qualitative study of the male main characters in the series Skam and Normal PeopleKarlsson, Wilma, Ekmark, Vendela January 2021 (has links)
I denna uppsats analyseras de manliga huvudkaraktärerna i dramaserierna Skam (2016) och Normala människor (2020) med syfte att undersöka om det finns tendenser för en ny mansbild i media. För att undersöka detta användes teoretiska perspektiv som representation, stereotyper, genus, heteronormativitet och hegemonisk maskulinitet. Ett analysschema skapades utifrån hegemonisk maskulinitet och forskning kring en ny mansbild i media. För att analysera materialet användes kvalitativ innehållsanalys i form av semiotik som metod. Resultatet visade att den manliga huvudkaraktären från Skam upprätthöll fler karaktärsdrag från den hegemoniska maskuliniteten jämfört med den manliga huvudkaraktären från Normala människor. Karaktären från Normala människor uppvisade fler tendenser från en ny mansbild. / In this essay, we analyze the male main characters in the drama series Skam (2016) and Normal People (2020) with the aim of examining whether there are tendencies for a new male image in the media. To investigate this, theoretical perspectives such as representation, stereotypes, gender, heteronormativity and hegemonic masculinity were used. An analysis scheme was created based on hegemonic masculinity and research on a new male image in the media. To analyze the material, qualitative content analysis in the form of semiotics was used as a method. The results showed that the male main character from Skam maintained more character traits from the hegemonic masculinity compared to the male main character from Normal people. The character from Normal people showed more tendencies from a new male image.

“Something has to give”: Exploring The Negotiation of Masculinity and Identity of Gay Males in SportBlack, Jeffrey J. 11 1900 (has links)
The institution of sport has an extensive history of heterosexism, and homophobia, making sport a problematic and unsafe space for gay-identified males. The lack of representation of gay athletes in professional sports highlights the risks associated with openly identifying one’s sexual identity within athletic settings, as gay-identified players often are faced with discrimination and harassment. As a result, gay-identified athletes may choose not to be open about their sexual identity or leave sports altogether as a way to avoid being subjected to discrimination and marginalization within athletics.
Grounded in queer theory, and engaging in phenomenology and arts-informed inquiry, this study seeks to explore the ways in which gay-identified males involved in sport negotiate their identies and masculinities. After each participant was interviewed, he wrote a letter to his past self as a way to share what he had come to learn about his process of coming into his own identity and negotiating masculinity. The study interrogates how gay males experience team-based competitive sports differently than individually-based sports and personal fitness activities. Additionally, it explores the personal process of defining and embracing masculinity. Deconstructing the definition of hegemonic masculinity, this study explores how masculinity can be understood in multiple ways. Changing the heterosexist and homophobic discourse that informs the organization of sport on multiple levels creates more opportunities for gay-identified athletes to be welcomed into the arena of sport and safely access the benefits associated with competitive sports and healthy active living activities. This study brings light to the emotional and psychosocial consequences that stem from homophobia and heterosexism’s dominance in our society. The perpetual discrimination and marginalization faced by those who identify as gay males highlights the need for social work’s involvement in justice-oriented research and practice as a way to bring greater equality and equity into our communities. / Thesis / Master of Social Work (MSW)

Machokulturen i förändring : En kvalitativ studie av manliga professionella ungdoms- och juniortränares perspektiv på herrishockeyn som fostrande miljö / The macho culture in change : A qualitative study on male professional youth and junior coaches’ perspective of men´s ice hockey as a fostering environmentLindquist, Mattias January 2023 (has links)
Ishockeyn har traditionellt sett varit en sport där kulturen kretsat kring manliga normer och värderingar vilket i många fall har lett till bland annat en nedvärderande kvinnosyn och homofobi. Studiens syfte var att undersöka hockeytränares upplevelser och erfarenheter av machokulturens påverkan på ishockey som fostrande miljö med fokus på hur de anser att de bör arbeta för att inte reproducera machokulturen. Datainsamlingen genomfördes med hjälp av sex semi-strukturerade intervjuer med professionella ungdoms- och juniortränare från Sveriges högsta samt näst högsta liga (SHL och Hockeyallsvenskan). Resultaten visar att tränarna upplever att det skett en förändring och att machokulturen inte är lika påtaglig som tidigare, att hockeyns rykte om att vara macho är förlegad och att kulturen inte är värre än i andra idrotter. I arbetet mot denna kultur anser tränarna att det viktigaste de kan göra i sin roll är att ha en nära relation till sina spelare för att skapa en trygg miljö där individer vågar visa sig sårbara. Vidare anser tränarna att det är viktigt att de själva är förebilder i detta och att det finns en tydlig kommunikation gällande regler och värderingar och vilka konsekvenser det får om dessa bryts. / Ice hockey has traditionally been a sport where the culture revolves around male norms and values, which in many cases has led to, among other things, derogatory views of women and homophobia. The purpose of the study was to investigate hockey coaches' experiences and perception of the macho culture's impact on ice hockey as a nurturing environment with a focus on how they believe they should work in order not to reproduce the macho culture. The data collection was carried out with the help of six semi-structured interviews with professional youth and junior coaches from the top two leagues in Sweden (SHL and Hockeyallsvenskan). The results show that the coaches feel that there has been a change and that the macho culture is not as evident as before, that hockey's reputation of being macho is outdated and that the culture is no worse than in other sports. In working against the macho culture, the coaches believe that the most important thing they can do is to have a close relationship with their players to create a secure environment where individuals dare to show vulnerability and that the coaches themselves are role models in this regard. The coaches also believe that it is important to have clear communication regarding rules and values and the consequences if these are broken.
