The purpose of this essay is to analyse how five small municipalities in Sweden handle and represent LGBTQ-people. This analysis uses the method What´s the Problem represented to be? created by Carol Bacchi and Susan Goodwin, which purpose is to analyse policy documents through a poststructural lens. The method has been combined with queer theory and queer time to analyse how subjectivity is represented in the documents. The findings conclude that the municipalities do represent LGBTQ-people in some compacity but that the documents struggle to explain sexuality and struggle with finding solutions that include nonbinary people. The documents also tend to represent LGBTQ-people as victims in the documents through the focus on discriminatory actions against LGBTQ-people.
