“A strange girl” In this thesis, we study selected dialogue scenes from the movies “På rymmen med Pippi Långstrump” and “Pippi på de sju haven”. The purpose of the study is to investigate how the character Pippi Longstocking is portrayed as a leader of a social group through her interactions. Based on the social interaction between Pippi, Tommy and Annika we are able to analyze behavior patterns, social categorization and attributes. We use the method of interaction analysis to make it possible to study leadership in social contexts. The result of the study indicates that Pippi Longstocking practices leadership but also that she is attributed to leadership through Tommy and Annika’s behaviors and actions in situations. Furthermore, it is discussed how the friends show an unreasonable trust in Pippi and choose to follow her at any costs.
