    Minnesspår: Hågkomstens rum och rörelse i skuggan av flykt2017Doctoral thesis, monograph (Other academic)
    Abstract [en]

    Focusing on the memories of Estonian refugees moving to Sweden in the wake of World War II, I analyze the concepts of “memory space” and history within the framework of the Escape as a master narrative. Following the research participants to the sites of their memories in Estonia and Sweden today, raised the questions what constitutes a lived memory space, and how is history defined within it?

    Through a combination of a phenomenological analysis of memory’s lived ex­perience, using Walter Benjamin’s concept of montage as radical remembering and its dialectical relation to history, I show how embodied memories shape their own space, a space not always framed by historical master narratives and identity posi­tions, but rather a searching space that is always changing. Dealing with the politics of place and representations, these memories are constantly loaded and unloaded with meaning. Yet the space of lived memory is not always a creation of meaning. Walking around, searching for traces, a memory space confronts the place and maps its own geography. It turns to a spatial and temporal flow, which intertwines place and experience, and erases the past and future as homogeneous categories. It is a living space of memory, rather than a memorial space of representations.

    The analysis focuses further on the tensions between remembering as a dialogue with history and memory’s ongoing acts of embodied experience. The position of in-betweenness appears in these stories of escape, not as a state of in-between home and away, past and present, but rather as an ongoing space-making process be­tween different modes and layers of memory. This is a process aware of the constant changes in the understandings of both history and personal experiences, intertwin­ing these new interpretations with embodied memory and thereby constantly add­ing new layers of experience to it. Memory’s tracing illuminates a memory poetics of the meanwhile and the in-between, which refuses historical closure.

    Boundaries of European Social Citizenship: EU Citizens’ Transnational Social Security in Regulations, Discourses and Experiences2019Collection (editor) (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    "This edited collection contributes to studies of intra-EU migration and mobility, welfare and European social citizenship by focusing on transnational labour movements from new to the old EU member states (Hungary-Austria, Bulgaria-Germany, Poland-UK and Estonia-Sweden). The volume provides a comparative analysis of formal organization and mobile individuals' use of European social security coordination, which involves mobile Europeans access to and portability of social security rights from the sending to the receiving country (and back). The book discloses the selectivity criteria of welfare provision in four areas (unemployment, family benefits, health insurance and pensions) that lay at heart of European cross-border social security governance. It also identifies specific discourses of belonging (gendered, ethnicized/racialized and class-related images of 'Us' and 'Them') that frame the institutional selectivity by constructing images of mobile EU-citizens 'deserving' or 'non-deserving' social membership. The collection offers a detailed examination of inequality experiences mobile EU citizens from the new EU countries encounter while accessing and porting social security rights across borders. It will be of interest to a wide range of social science and interdisciplinary researchers, students and practitioners as well as those interested in intra-EU migration and mobility, social security, European social citizenship and transnational studies"

    Labyrinths of European social citizenship: Variations in and levels of comparison2019In: Boundaries of European Social Citizenship: EU Citizens’ Transnational Social Security in Regulations, Discourses and Experiences / [ed] Anna Amelina; Emma Carmel; Ann Runfors; Elisabeth Scheibelhofer, Abingdon: Routledge, 2019, p. 199-212Chapter in book (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    The chapter integrates the conceptual ideas presented in this volume and the outcomes of the empirical research on mobile Europeans’ access to and the portability of social security rights that focused on four pairs of countries (Hungary-Austria, Bulgaria-Germany, Estonia-Sweden, Poland-UK) in four areas of social security (unemployment, family benefits, health, and pensions). In the first step, the chapter identifies country-pair spanning patterns in respect to (1) cross-border social security regulations, (2) discourses of belonging, and (3) mobile (East-)Europeans’ experiences of (unequal) welfare opportunities. At the same time, it puts emphasis on the country-pair specific differences and similarities of the above-mentioned dimensions of European social citizenship.

    Sluta vara så politiskt korrekt!: En etnologisk studie om unga stockholmare och deras åsikter om politisk korrekthet2019Independent thesis Basic level (degree of Bachelor), 10 credits / 15 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [en]

    Political correctness is a difficult term to explain. This essay will explore how opinions about this term is expressed and how it affects the social interactions in the lives of 10 younger Stockholmers with different kinds of social background. The material consists of in-depth interviews with a total of ten informants with different living backgrounds.

    Is political correctness furthermore a problem or a non-problem in our social lives? It is a question that seems to give life to many strong feelings. Moreover, in all directions and opinions. I had a clear idea of what political correctness meant and had the idea that it was just the view that existed. How can people think in any other way?

    Languages are contrary to my previous view, something that we are all involved in and create. It is a process that is one of the most significant capabilities we as humans have. What role does political correctness have in this? What political correctness means is one of the questions that this essay will address, but what we can say is that the word choice in a social conversation is most important. How we talk to and about each other is more significant than many may think. Our ability to choose one term over another contributes to our perception of other people and, of course, ourselves and our role in society.

    Adding to this is that my results have shown how ten young Stockholmers from different backgrounds perceived the concept of political correctness. What has been demonstrated is how the concept/phenomenon of political correctness has been described by these young people and how their social interaction has been affected by others when they use a politically correct or incorrect language.

    Turkisk diaspora i arbetslivet: En interaktionistisk analys av upplevelser och erfarenheter av att vara turk på arbetsplatsen2018Independent thesis Basic level (degree of Bachelor), 10 credits / 15 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [en]

    This study is about the Turkish diaspora in Sweden and how whose thoughts about being a Turk interact with how they perceive their work environment. The purpose of the paper is to analyse how four individuals with Turkish background interact with surrounding actors at their workplaces in Sweden and when, where, and how their Turkish identity is performed.

    Following are the questions asked to fulfil the purpose of the study;

    •  How do high educated Turks in diaspora experience being Turkish in Sweden?
    •  When, where, and how is the Turkish identity performed?
    •  How do high educated Turks in diaspora interact with and perceive their surrounding actors in workplaces in Sweden?

    The results show that the participants do not have a direct experience of being a Turk. Their experiences are mostly a result of their interaction with others and of others’ perception of their Turkish identity.

    The results also show that the Turkish identity is often visible in interaction with actors outside the Turkish diaspora. However, the heterogeneous Turkish diaspora shows that perceptions of religion, politics and education can be identified as critical factors at play in interactions within the Turkish diaspora.

    Participants’ interaction with others and their perceptions of their workplaces are highlydependant on the workplace. Depending on the workplace’s heterogeneity or homogeneity the experiences differ. Some of the participants have developed strategies to eliminate conflicts associated with their Turkish identity.

    Vit men inte svensk: Andra generationens sverigefinnar i den svenska vithetens marginal2018Independent thesis Advanced level (degree of Master (Two Years)), 20 credits / 30 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [en]

    The following thesis explores the racialisation of second generation sweden finns in contemporary Sweden. This is done by applying a theoretical framework from critical race and whiteness studies on 8 interviews with second generation sweden finns. Especially the concept of the margins of whiteness has been of importance for the following study, which allows the analysis to consider both marginality and privilege.    

    The analysis focus on the intersection of the variables of ethnicity, class and race, which allows the racialised position of the 8 informants in the study to be outlined. While the themes of ethnicity and class have ocurred in previous research, the study of race and in particular whiteness, have yet to be applied on sweden finns.    

    As will be revealed through the analysis, there are good reasons to consider Sweden finns as belonging within the margin of swedish whiteness. While there are signs that sweden finns have a position of marginality within swedish society the informants in this study can pass for swedes thanks to being racialised as white in everyday contexts.

    Det meningsfulla ledarskapet: En etnologisk diskursanalys av hur fritidsledare skapar meningsfull fritid2019Independent thesis Basic level (degree of Bachelor), 10 credits / 15 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [sv]

    Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka och analysera hur fritidsledare genom tal och praktik ger mening åt “meningsfull fritid” och hur “meningsfull fritid” blir betydelsefullt. Studiens material bygger på 6 intervjuer med fritidsledare och 3 observationer på fritidsgård. Materialet analyseras med hjälp av poststrukturalistisk teori och politisk diskursteori. Resultatet visar att fritidsledarnas skapande av meningsfull fritid påverkas av fyra olika diskurser. Diskurserna påverkar värdena som läggs i meningsfull fritid och dessa påverkar fritidsledarnas utövande av ledarskap, vilket leder till drivkrafterna som skapar meningsfull fritid. Slutdiskussion menar att vikten av ungdomsperspektiv i meningsfull fritid behövs för demokratin och ungdomars deltagande i välfärden som samhällsmedborgare.

Hur tänker vi och pratar om den tekniska utvecklingen? Den kommer att ingripa i våra liv på olika nivåer, men har vi möjlighet att välja en framtid utan AI? I framtiden kan antalet arbetstillfällen komma att minska vilket möjligen innebär en utveckling mot större ekonomiska och sociala klyftor. Men kanske ger skiftet istället möjligheter att arbeta mindre och dela på jobben? Författarna kommer från olika humanvetenskapliga discipliner och belyser diskussionen om AI i alla dess skepnader. De utforskar hur samtalet förs i dagspress och på arbetsplatser, men också hur det uttrycks i konst och språk.

    Abstract [en]

    This is an introduction to a thematic issue on the concept of class, in celebration of Professor Mats Lindqvist, who unfailingly and successfully has argued the relevance of including the social organisation of economic practice and class into Swedish ethnology. In the text, two basic tenets of general class theory are laid out. One drawing from the "historical materialist" and "dialectical", marxist tradition, and the other from a more "scalar" and "situational", weberian canon. These are then used as analytical tools to understand the development of class studies within the discipline of ethnology. While illustrating how Swedish ethnological studies, with their preoccupation with the situational social construction of meaning has come to prioritise the scalar before the dialectical, the author provokingly argues that any substantial critique of the current socio-economical formation that might have existed within the discipline before, has seemingly diminished.

    Från vällingklocka till minutjakt: Övervakning och styrning av arbetet från dagsverken till gigekonomi2023Book (Other academic)
    Abstract [en]

    Our society claims to protect individual freedom, but freedom ends every time we clock in. Never before have employers been able to control their employees in such detail. But the desire to control workers runs like a common thread throughout history. In this book, ethnologist Daniel Bodén applies a social-historical perspective to contemporary discussions about surveillance in the workplace. He examines the technologies that have been used to increasingly control work and what consequences the development has had. The result is a pithy story about Sweden's economic transformations from the late 18th century to today, about mistrust and about an increasing chase for productivity.

Den som planerade och övervakade arbetet var gårdens inspektor. År 1786 flyttade Carl Hane från Vingåker in i inspektorsbostaden. Kapitlet handlar om arbetet på godset, tjänsten som inspektor och om livet på de sörmländska herrgårdarna.

    Abstract [en]

    Today it has become something of an accepted "truth" that Sweden and the world are facing a pending robotic revolution. This chapter questions the commonplace portrayal of automation as a sudden leap. Instead, the chapter ethnographically shows that automation is a long drawn-out process characterised by how the relation between work and capital is expressed in the everyday practices and relations in the workplace - the relations in production. It shows that the automation process can go back and forth, depending on the strength ratio between capital and workers' unions, and raises important questions about whether it is the machines that become more human over time, or whether workers are increasingly reduced to machines due to the degradation of work.

    On the Pending Robot Revolution and the Utopia of Human Agency2018In: Culture Unbound. Journal of Current Cultural Research, ISSN 2000-1525, E-ISSN 2000-1525, Vol. 10, no 2, p. 208-225Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    A hallmark of modernist thought is the belief in science and technology as a socially revolutionary force. Consequently, new technologies have often been sequenced by pictures of another world to be. The birth of electronic data processing (EDP) was no exception. Provoking both hopes and anxieties, EDP and its subsequent process of automation has, ever since the launch of the first electronic data processing machines in the early 1950’s, been a cornerstone for countless extravagant visions of the future, such as the thought of an ever so impending “Robot Revolution”. This article builds from the basic assumption that visions of the future draw on notions of what at a given time is considered socially and politically desirable, unwanted or at all possible. It thus argues that the robot revolution could be studied as a form of reified anticipation through which possible social trajectories are made symbolically comprehensible. Focusing on the automation debate of the Swedish 1950’s, I argue that the robot revolution serves as a symbolic articulation of the social experiences of Swedish welfare society, and that it carries both ideological and utopian dimensions worth examining.

    Abstract [en]

    The language used to conceive of digital technology often transposes human and natural properties to technical innovation. Collections of data are conceived of as "clouds", "lakes" and "streams". Machines are rewarded with the ability to "see", "sense", "think" etc.  This chapter discusses the conceptual proximity between technology and nature and argues that the conception of technological development as a natural evolutionary process serves to mystify how technology is the physical manifestation of class interest embedded in capitalist social relations.

    För många läsare kanske ord som byråkrati eller känslor upplevs som varandras motsatser. Medan byråkrati väcker associationer om styrning och objektiv rationalitet så anspelar känslor på idéer om något spontant och personligt. Man kan ju inte låta känslorna styra arbetet! Och inte heller styra känslorna! Eller? I denna artikel diskuterar etnologen Daniel Bodén hur den tekniska utveckling inneburit nya former av arbetsdelning, där känslor kommit att fungera så väl som mål och medel.

    Witnesses of Social Decay "Ordinary People", Right-Wing Populism and Social Media2020In: Schweizerisches Archiv für Volkskunde, ISSN 0036-794X, Vol. 116, no 1, p. 51-68Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    In recent years, social media has allowed new actors to participate in the formation of public opinion. In Sweden, the number of right-wing populist Facebook-groups are increasing in numbers. Groups like Stand up for Sweden (Sta upp for Sverige), a Facebook-group focusing on "revealing Sweden's failed immigration policies" now gathers around 170 000 members, which could be compared to the number of subscription readers of any medium sized Swedish daily newspaper. In the group, members share photos, news articles, personal stories and testimonies of a society on the brink of "systemic collapse". This article provides an analysis of personal witness accounts shared within the group during the year leading up to the Swedish 2018 election. The discussion centres around three key narratives through which the myth of a systemic collapse is constructed. Doing so, I argue that such narratives have a socially therapeutic function and serve the purpose to symbolically process and resolve conflicting social experiences.

    Ansiktet bakom “Den gängkriminella” i svensk politik: En diskursanalytisk studie hur gängkriminalitet som social kategori konstrueras i svensk politik2020Independent thesis Basic level (degree of Bachelor), 10 credits / 15 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [en]

    Gang crime has been one of the most debated topics in the political debate in 2019-2020, where different descriptions, opinions and expressions have taken place in Swedish politics and news journalism. In the political debate, "immigrants", segregation and migration are often used together with gang crime. Through the language, “the gang criminal” is placed as an opposite to “the Swedish society” and is further understood as “the Others”. The purpose of this study is to draw attention of a possible order and regularity that is present in the political language that represents and presents gang crime, and thus study how gang crime as a social category is created and attributed to “truths” in the political debate. The issues that the study relates to are: Which objects, phenomena and concepts are linked to the phenomenon “gang criminals” in Swedish politics?, What meanings are ascribed to "the gang criminal" based on the different political perspectives that are articulated? and What are the implicit perspectives of the party leaders about the "gang criminal" and in what ways can it be interpreted as power? The starting points of the essay lean towards three critical theoretical perspectives that divide an applicant into analyzing unconscious and underlying discourses in systems and structures: poststructuralism, discourse theory and interactionism. The material basis consists of a party leader debate from Svt plays Agenda and five articles from Dagens Nyheter, one of Sweden's leading news magazines. The theories have both helped to structure and organize the empirical material, at the same time as they have helped to complicate and problematize it. I have used a qualitative approach that primarily values the meaning of what is produced, which has been central to the analysis itself. The conclusion shows how the language used in the party debate, despite the political differences, normalizes a discourse that maintains a "we" and/against "them" spirit and further legitimizes the news media's portrayal of "the immigrant" as a stranger in "the Swedish society".

    Challenging abortion stigma: framing abortion in Ireland and Poland2019In: Sexual and reproductive health matters, E-ISSN 2641-0397, Vol. 27, no 3, article id 1686197Article, review/survey (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    Abortion stigma, while observable as a global phenomenon, is constructed locally through various pathways and institutions, and at the intersection of transnational and local discourses. Stigmatisation of abortion has been challenged in varied ways by pro-choice adherents. This article investigates strategies for identifying and opposing stigmatisation of abortion in Ireland and Poland, focusing on campaigns aimed in one context, at repealing a near total prohibition of abortion, and in another, on resisting further restrictions concerning reproductive rights. We examine how mobilisation on sexual and reproductive health (SRH) in both contexts worked to address stigma and discrimination in SRH, drawing on the concept of framing and showing similarities between these two national contexts. Our analysis explains how the logic of inclusion and exclusion works in efforts at destigmatising abortion.

    Black lives matter: Afroswedes experience of BLM 20202020Independent thesis Basic level (degree of Bachelor), 10 credits / 15 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [en]

    The purpose of this paper is to see how the events that occurred after the death of George Floyd in the summer of 2020 have expressed itself with afro-swedes and in Sweden. A major part of this paper is going to be about BLM, both the organization and the hashtag. I write about the newly created swedish based BLM organization that was founded during the events after the death of George Floyd but I will also write about how the video of George Floyd that was circulating on the internet was handled by afro-swedes. In order to answer my purpose, I have based this paper on three issues that are central throughout this paper. The questions: how have my informants experienced the video of George and the attention that BLM received this summer, how can BLM be understood from a Swedish perspective and lastly what do my informants hope BLM-Sweden will contribute to in the future? In order to answer these questions I have conducted 4 interview with 4 afro-swedes who live in Sweden. The results show that the events after the death of George Floyd gave the afro-swedish community a possibility speak out about their own lives in Sweden. It was an opportunity to speak about themes like “race” and racism in Sweden in a way that was not possible before. The creation of BLM-Sweden was a way for afro-swedes to make their voices heard while it also exposed stuff (like racism) that black people have to face on a daily basis in a country where “race” and racism doesn’t exist.

    Abstract [en]

    This essay is about adoptive parents and adoptive children. The purpose of the essay is to study how the feeling of inclusion and exclusion affects the adoptive parents and the adoptive children’s identity process in relation to the adoption discourse and the adoption community. My empirical material consists of interviews with thirteen informants: seven adoptive parents and six adoptive children. Their stories testify that they feel like they’re part of something which in the public eye is perceived as an abnormal family constellation. My results show that their experiences have had a vastly big impact on their lives, how they present themselves as individuals and how they view their belonging to the Swedish society.

    Irakiska flyktingars integrering i Sverige under 80-talet: En kvalitativ studie om fyra irakiska flyktingars resa för att integrera sig i det svenska samhället2021Independent thesis Basic level (degree of Bachelor), 10 credits / 15 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [en]

    The war between Iraq and Iran started 1980 and ended 1988. During the war it came approximately 11 811 Iraqi refugees to Sweden. In this essay. I will explore how Iraqi refugees who came in the 1980s have integrated themselves in the Swedish society. To enhance this understanding, I used previous research material presented in the essay but, most importantly, I also used a qualitative method with organized interviews. The interview material consists of 4 individual interviews for 90 minutes each, and all interviewees are highly educated men in the ages of 62-66 years. I structured the interviews in line with 3 framing questions with the purpose to understand how the interviewees’ first time in Sweden was, especially considering potential difficulties of learn the Swedish language; how the interviewees perceived opportunities and challenges in establishing themselves on the employment market; and finally their thoughts and feelings about their own integration. I have used three different models/theories when analyzing the results. Firstly, I used symbolic interactionism as an explanatory model for interpersonal interaction, communication, subjective interpretation of situation and group affiliation. Secondly, I used the postcolonialism as an explanatory model. Postcolonialism describes a power structure that exists in the society where “white” people are perceived as being the superior race while “black” people are perceived as being the subordinate race, which is a legacy from colonialism. Thirdly, I used folkloristic narrative analysis, which helps to understand how people, with the help of stories from the past, position themselves in reality when the story is meaningful.

    De vägar som finns att gå: Att hitta sin väg som aromantisk person i ett kärlekscentrerat samhälle2022Independent thesis Basic level (degree of Bachelor), 10 credits / 15 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [en]

    Aromanticism is a romantic orientation meaning someone who experiences little to no romantic attraction. In this study, six aromantic people were interviewed about the ways that their romantic orientation affects their every day lives and how they view the future in relation to their orientation. The main framework used in the analysis is Sara Ahmed’s queer phenomenology and her theoretical concepts of orientation and lines. Another concept used to analyze the informants’ statements is amatonormativity, coined by Elizabeth Brake. The study mainly concludes that it is through aromanticism that the informants can become orientated which offers new possible ways of looking at the future, rather than following an amatonormative line that includes a romantic partner. Instead, queer lines come into reach and a future where one, for example, lives alone, with a queerplatonic partner or sees one’s friends as one’s family becomes seen as a possibility.

    Capoeiras effekter på den utövande individen: En etnologisk studie om relationen mellan subjekt och omgivning i den afrobrasilianska kampsporten Capoeira2023Independent thesis Basic level (degree of Bachelor), 10 credits / 15 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [en]

    The aim of this thesis is to explore and analyze what the effects capoeira has on its practitioners when it comes to how it interacts in their everyday life, what capoeira means to them, what feelings they attach to the practice and what meaning they make of the historical aspect of capoeira. This study is based on 7 interviews with people who practice capoeira and 2 observations of capoeira training. The main theoretical framework applied in the thesis is phenomenology, with an overall focus on the phenomenology of the body, as well as critical race theory. The result shows that the impact on the practitioner was positive not only when it came to the physical aspect of working out, but gave them an insight regarding differences between the two cultures. The one they live their lives in, and the one capoeira offered them. The discussion highlights how the practitioners valuing capoeira as something positive that enriched their lives, but also became a tool that made them reflect on their role as consumers of a culture rooted in oppression.

    Abstract [en]

    The subject of this bachelor thesis is the logics and counter-logics that have structured the perception of transsexualism and the now abolished sterilization requirement for legal recognition of sex change within the Swedish legal system and governmental authority. The analyzed material consists of judgments from two court cases with opposing verdicts that took place in 2004-2005 and 2012. The main conflict in the first court case was about if the sterilization requirement entailed the destruction of frozen germ cells or not. In the second court case the antagonism was mainly about if the sterilization requirement itself was legitimate or not. The differentiation in the verdicts and the expressed logics between the court cases was through analyze linked to discursive displacements in media coverage and judicial descriptions of transsexuals and their legal rights.

    Visionära planer och vardagliga praktiker: Postmilitära landskap i Östersjöområdet2013Doctoral thesis, monograph (Other academic)
    Abstract [en]

    In the years after WWII the Baltic Sea Area developed into an area strongly divided between East and West. Because of the tensions between the blocs, the coastal areas where strongly militarized and prepared for war.

    The new political situation after 1989 propelled an international military disarmament and closing down of bases, training areas around Europe. Since the Baltic Sea Area was one of the heaviest militarized part of Europe the question of disarmament here is of particularly great economic, social and cultural importance.

    This study is about the post-military landscape in the Baltic Sea Area with examples from Dejevo on the Estonian island Saaremaa, Dranske on the (East)German island Rügen and Fårösund on the Swedish island Gotland.

    The aim of this thesis is to shed light on the process where the military landscape of the Cold War is transformed in order to be incorporated in the macro-regional endeavors for unity in the new Europe. I want to analyze the implications that planning visions have on the everyday life of people. A following aim is to shed light on the challenges that urban planning has to face in this transformation. Three research questions frame the study. The first question analyzes the process where the coastal areas of the Baltic Sea after the end of the Cold War are disarmed and transformed, from a landscape of production of military services and objects into a landscape of consumption for recreation and tourism. The second question takes its point of departure in the relation between planning visions and everyday life. The third question concerns the matter of the past and analyzes what aspects of the military landscape are emphasized respectively pushed aside in the transformation into post-military landscape.

    The study is based on interviews with inhabitants and local planners as well as macro-regional and local planning documents, articles and photographs.

    Fessenheim: A Nuclear Power Plant for Peace2020In: Culture Unbound. Journal of Current Cultural Research, ISSN 2000-1525, E-ISSN 2000-1525, Vol. 12, no 3, p. 569-589Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    This paper explores the construction of a nuclear power facility at Fessenheim, Alsace, and its role in the remaking of French-German post-war relations and the consolidation of the post-war peacebuilding process. The siting and materiality of nuclear energy technology, I argue, was a key component of the top-down peace-building strategy that guided reconciliation processes at the national and regional levels. This study analyses archival documents, newspapers' articles, interviews with Alsatian antinuclear activists, and amateur films in order to reconstruct how the site for a joint nuclear power plant at Fessenheim was chosen and how it affected cross-border interactions. Although the planning of a French-German nuclear facility at Fessenheim embodied the appeasement that characterised post-war relations at a governmental level between the two nations, its construction had limited impact on the regional reconciliation processes. However, the site of the nuclear plant became central for reconciliation in ways that industry planners did not foresee: opposition to the nuclearization of the Upper Rhine Valley became the driving force for the cross-border reconciliation process. This grassroots mobilisation against the presence of nuclear technology formed the nexus for transcending the legacy of World War II through cooperation toward a common, anti-nuclear future.

    Painful legacy of World War II: Nazi forced enlistment: Alsatian/Mosellan Prisoners of War and the Soviet Prison Camp of Tambov2013Doctoral thesis, monograph (Other academic)
    Abstract [en]

    This dissertation concerns the legacy of the Nazi forced enlistment during World War II and focuses more precisely on the case of Alsace/Moselle. Many of these French men, enlisted by force from 1942 in the German army, were sent to the Eastern Front and experienced Soviet prison camps.

    The aim of this thesis is to examine how knowledge and memories about forced enlistment and Soviet captivity have been remembered, commemorated, communicated and passed on since the Alsatian/Mosellan POWs (Prisoners of War) carried the tokens of enemies or traitors when reintegrating their motherland, France.

    Four strategies dealing with the experiences of forced enlistment and of internment in Soviet prison camps are examined. I present how the first and most common strategy, i.e. avoidance, is contributing to an individual and collective construction of silence. Then I argue that a second strategy, the constitution of families of remembrance, is helping them to articulate and narrate their experiences (third strategy). The fourth strategy is the organisation of pilgrimages (emic term) to the former prison camp of Tambov, where the majority of the Alsatian/Mosellan POWs were gathered during the war. This last strategy actualises the issue of the transmission of the war experiences given that pilgrimages bring together three to four generations. Through fieldwork observations of the journeys I show how the pilgrims engage with a sense of the past. They remember and reassess the meaning of the past in terms of the social, cultural and political needs of the present. The importance of place and the aspect of self-in-place are thoughtfully analysed in order to highlight the process of passing on the memory of Tambov.

    I conclude by arguing that the agents of remembrance interviewed for the purpose of this thesis are engaged in turning the tangible and intangible legacies of World War II into heritage. This is done by releasing the legacy of forced enlistment and internment in Soviet prison camp from the private/familial sphere and inscribing it in the public sphere. Yet, the agency of the former POWs and their descendants shows how to let pass a past “that does not want to pass” in a contemporary European context.

    Re-visiting the site of the former soviet prison camp in Tambov2013In: Journeys, ISSN 1465-2609, E-ISSN 1752-2358, Vol. 14, no 1, p. 68-88Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    This article examines visits by French people to the former Soviet prison camp in Tambov, Russia, where Alsatians-Mosellans men were imprisoned during World War II. Because the memory of these prisoners of war, conscripted by force into the German army during the war is disappearing together with the witnesses, some survivors organized in the 1990s journeys to the Tambov former prison camp, called “pilgrimages.” There are currently two kinds of pilgrimages: pilgrimages for survivors of the camp and their close relatives and pilgrimages for grandchildren of former Tambov inmates. This article suggests that the pilgrims, confronting their past, are engaged with a process of identity making, and that pilgrimage provides pilgrims with the opportunity to confront their grief for the dead or their sense of injustice and to let go of the past. The article concludes that with the pilgrimage the value of Tambov as a place of death is re-evaluated.

    The logics and rhetoric of the announced shutdown of the Fessenheim nuclear power plant (France)2023In: Sustainable Development, ISSN 0968-0802, E-ISSN 1099-1719, Vol. 31, no 6, p. 3968-3978Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    The closing of the aging nuclear power plant of Fessenheim was eventually concretized in June 2020 after many years of controversy, reflecting the sensibility of closing nuclear power plants in France, the world's second largest producer of nuclear power. This paper provides insight into how this highly policy vexed issue was discussed on the local level during 2017, a period when the decision regarding the shutdown was still at stake. Here, I examine the discursive strategies mobilized by key actors lobbying for the shutdown or maintenance of the nuclear power plant to enhance their argumentations. Using political discourse analyses combined with the logics approach, the article shows that the argumentation of proponents and advocates of a shutdown is structured around the same concept of sustainability. However, economic growth, social prosperity, and environmental “cautiousness” are not articulated with the same chain of equivalence and do not activate the same fantasmatic logics.
