Migrating slandering : Tracking Royal Sex Scandals (1880–2010)

This paper presents two cases from royal media scandals, journalism, rumours and street slandering. The investigation comprices the late 19th century to the early 21st. Our chosen scandals have Swedish kings and presumed and forbidden sexuality in centre of focus. The first scandal took place in the late 19th century, the second in the early 21st century.Via the concept of media system we track th

Starving for safe spaces : knowledge production, consciousness-raising and “the political” in the Facebook group Fittlife

The thesis explores online knowledge production around a subject that has been considered taboo and inappropriate through history – sexual, reproductive and genital health for people with female genitals. Therefore, it also examines the political potential of coming together to openly discuss such “delicate issues”. The focus of the study is the Swedish Facebook-group “Fittlife – underliv och häls

Mediating the Past and Historicizing the Present: The HBO Series Chernobyl (2019) and Its Transnational Audience Responses on IMDb

The Russian invasion of Ukraine has put the vulnerability of Ukraine’s Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant under the spotlight. Meanwhile, the remembrance and reflection of the Chernobyl disaster of 1986 has been ongoing in different media among which the HBO mini-series Chernobyl (2019) stands out and resonates transnationally. The existing analysis on Chernobyl mainly focuses on how the streaming series

Through the eyes of the 'Other' : Greenlanders' experiences in mediated spaces and places

Greenlanders in Denmark are often overlooked in the spheres of the Danish society. One stereotypical image of the Greenlander has become ingrained to be almost commonsensical in its use in the Danish language and media. That is the Greenlander as the loser in Danish society, someone who is either drunk, homeless, or destitute. Although some Greenlanders suffer from these issues, the majority of th

Women Who Listen : What Finnish and English Speakers Hear in Sweden

Media, technology and globalization are the key words in academic contemporary consumer and cultural research going on today. From these ideas, many different research directions could diverge. This thesis explores the listening habits of female, native Finnish and English speakers living in Sweden who are within the age groups of 20’s to 40’s. Focusing on media, technology, and mobile world citiz

In defence of the fundamental values of society: an analysis of blasphemy trials and debates in Sweden around 1900

Critique of religion and its consequences is a topical theme. The attack on the satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo in Paris in January 2015 made the Western media establishment to rally in defence of freedom of expression, but it also raised the question of the limits of this freedom. There are always defined limits to freedom of expression, which change over time and are adapted to the political sy

"Regional Conflicts: From the Merchant's House to the People's Home"

This article is an analysis of the Swedish feature film "Brita i grosshandlarhuset" from 1946 about a poor girl that moves to the city finding employment as a maid in the house of a rich merchant. Here I examine the compromises - in terms of constructions of class and gender - that paved the way for a new narrative, with the progression of imagery from, so to speak, the symbol of the merchant hous

Efterkrigstidens samhällskontakter

Propaganda, upplysning, pr och information. Detta är några exempel på efterkrigstidens mångfacetterade kommunikationsbegrepp. Under perioden från andra världskrigets slut till 1980-talet var Sverige en framväxande välfärdsstat, och mediernas möjligheter att fostra, påverka och utbilda diskuterades regelbundet. Men i vilka sammanhang användes dessa begrepp och hur omsattes de i praktiken? I Efterkr

Nedskrivning av Webben : en mediearkeologisk analys av Heritrix

There is no doubt that the the Web constitutes an important channel and platform for public discourse and cultural exchange, and that our times will be remembered by accessing the archives of the Web. This is also to say, that perception of the web – present and past – is shaped and governed by the media we and our machines perceive it with. So with what media do we archive it? Recording media is

Bilder av Förintelsen. Mening, minne, kompromettering

Popular Abstract in Swedish Vår egen tid kännetecknas av ett mycket stort intresse för Förintelsen, det vill säga nazisternas folkmord på Europas judar. Denna bok försöker skissera några viktiga aspekter av den kulturella förståelsen av Förintelsen, genom att studera hur den avbildats i visuell kultur. Med "visuell kultur" förstås ett brett spektrum av kulturella uttryck, från dokumentär- och presThis thesis examines the representation in visual culture of the Holocaust, the Nazi genocide of European Jewry. It is divided into three main parts, each one focusing on a particular aspect of Holocaust representation. Part 1, "Meaning" (chapter 1-3), begins by considering the important role played by documentary photographs from the concentration camps for the public knowledge and conception of

The Power of the Power Suit : How do the representations of women’s work in American Vogue reflect the changes in the female labour force participation rate from 1900 to 2020?

The increase in female labour force participation rate can be considered as the most significant labour market trend taken place over the last 120 years in the United States. However, despite the drastic increase, women’s labour participation has stagnated since the mid-1990s. There is a lack of research about the social aspects of FLFP including how anti-egalitarian views reinforced by media repr
