    Sammanfattning : Unlike most research on populism and post-democracy that have examined the current politi-cal conjuncture, the aim of this thesis is to understand and explain how populist voters are constructed. To do this, the opinion and cultural pages of Sweden's six largest newspapers are studied during the time of the 2016 United Kingdom European membership referendum and the 2016 United States presidential election.

  2. 17. Media Portrayals of Protests : A Discursive Analysis of Newspaper Articles on Gilet Jaune protests in France

    Sammanfattning : The way conflicts are understood depends on how identities are conveyed through media. Newspapers’ reports of the Gilets Jaunes protests in France during the autumn 2018 are no exception. One factor that can influence which choices are made in describing identity, is the distance between the place of publication and the location of events. LÄS MER

  3. 18. Discursive (re)articulations of development policy in the light of Sustainable development goals: The case of Georgia

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Graduate School; Lunds universitet/Master of Science in Development Studies

    Författare :Ivane Lomidze; [2019]
    Nyckelord :Discursive change and continuation; Neoliberalism and social democracy in Georgia; Sustainable Development Goals; Post-development theory; Social Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : The paper analyses the ways Georgian government produced development policy in relation to the changing global and local discursive formations of development. By bringing together post-development theory and Laclau and Mouffe’s discourse analysis method, I illustrated that the neoliberal discourse failed to generate meanings regarding social issues that created a danger of the dislocation of the discourse.

    Författare :Santino Zhakata; [2018]

    Sammanfattning : Democracy posits that broadly based participation in deliberative processes will lead to laws and policies that are more inclusive and more just than the measures enacted by monarchs or powerful elites (Hauser 1999:5). Jurgen Habermas (1964) propounded the theoretical concept of the public sphere as a “domain of social life where public opinion is expressed by means of rational public discourse and debate” (Papacharissi, 2013:113).

  5. 20. “Exercising advisory functions”: Interpretations of democracy in the European Committee of the Regions and the European Economic and Social Committee

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Europastudier

    Författare :Christopher Becton; [2018]
    Nyckelord :The European Committee of the Regions; The European Economic and Social Committee; Democracy; European values; Civil society; Local and regional level; Content analysis; Discourse analysis; Discourse Theory; Eu; European Studies; Languages and Literatures; Cultural Sciences; Social Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Our thesis investigates the comparative interpretations of democracy in the opinions of the European Committee of the Region (CoR) and the European Economic and Social Committee (EESC). Using the mixed methods of a qualitative content analysis and a discourse analysis, we assess the extent to which, how and why democracy is unevenly interpreted at the CoR and EESC; relative to their joint remits as independent bodies, representing EU regions and EU civil society, and as EU Institutions, beholden to EU Treaties.
