Turkosblå hav, kritvita stränder, krig, kokain och kidnappningar… Välkommen till Colombia! : En retorisk analys av hur Colombia framställs i svensk press / Deep blue seas, caribbean beaches, cocain, kalashnikovs and kidnappings… Welcome to Colombia! : A rhetorical analysis of Swedish media’s portrayal of Colombia

Colombia is a country with a most controversial reputation, carrying associations of drugs, violence and terrorism. In 2016, following 52 years of civil war and violence Colombia finally found itself in a state of peace, since the government and one of the largest and most active guerrilla groups of all times FARC-EP agreed to lay down arms.Two and a half years later there are still many of us that associate Colombia with all these negative factors that are tied to its history. In this study I will be looking into how Colombia have been portrayed in Swedish media since the signing of the peace-agreement. I have also created a survey in an attempt to find out how people in a small Northern- European country like Sweden think of this diverse place on earth.
