I have chosen a qualitative research methodology in the form of one group interview and two individual interviews. The result of the study shows that the group of Swedish-born adolescents of non-Swedish descent identify themselvs with one or more nation-states in different ways depending on different concept metaphors that underlie the concept of nation in different national discourses.
