Mannen och kvinnan på DN Debatt : - En studie av den jämställdhetsbild som framträder på Dagens NYheters debattsida

Sammanfattning: ABSTRACT Purpose/Aim: This essay aims to investigate what picture (obvious and hidden) of men and womens equality in our society that is to be found on DN Debatt. Material/Method: The material consists of 175 articles from DN Debatt during 2004. A content analysis and a rethoric analysis has then been used as a method of analysing the material. Main results: Men are much more represented on DN Debatt then women. The underlying picture of men and women that is presented sees men as being the ones who are in charge of all the important and “big” decisions and questions in our society. Women on the other hand are pictured as, although they have reached higher positions in society, the ones who to a high degree focus on closer and more socially important issues. The investigation has found much support of Yvonne Hirdmans theories of the gender system. Keywords: Dagens Nyheter, DN Debatt, Gender, Gender Images, Media
