Without him keeping me on track and gently prodding me in the right direction, carrying out the analysis would undoubtedly have been an overwhelming task. I am also grateful to Iver B. Neumann, who has read through and given valuable comments on a draft in the finishing stages of the process. I would also like to thank Prof. Jeffrey T. Checkel for an excellent introduction to social constructivism in International Relations, Prof. Werner Christie Mathisen for his course on textual analysis, and Sunniva Engh for introducing me to Norwegian development aid history. You have all inspired me in the choice of perspective and object of study. Writing this thesis would not be possible without support and encouragement to overcome the many small and big challenges I have encountered. I am indebted to my fellow students, particularly Jonathan Amario and Ruben Røsler; my friends; and my parents. Last, but not least, Synnøve deserves my most heartfelt thanks for her patience and loving support. All the viewpoints presented, and all errors and inconsistencies, are solely my own responsibility.

First, I am grateful to the University of Tromsø that opened my path to an international academic milieu by admitting me to the Indigenous Master Programme where I met my classmates from all over the world, Saami professors with personal experience in the indigenous self-determination movement, and other researchers on indigenous issues. Moreover, the Centre for Sámi Studies played an active role in my educational process, by organising seminars (at Skibotn) and conferences (the Forum for Development Cooperation with Indigenous Studies), trips to Finnmark (Karasjok, Kautokeino, Alta) and to Kåfjord (Manndalen) and finally, funding my research project. My gratitude goes as well to the Norwegian State Educational Loan Fund (Lånekassen) and the Centre for Environment and Development (SEMUT) for their financial support that made this research possible. My greatest gratitude and thanks go to my supervisor Bjørn Bjerkli, Associate Professor at the Department of Social Anthropology at the Tromsø University, who devoted a great deal of his time reading and commenting on my work.

  • Migrants Between Culture and Society “Fadime
    The Expo Foundation Migrants between Culture and Society A case study of a changing social climate after the murder of Fadime Sahindal “Fadime - a martyr of our time” Expressen 4th of February By Cecilia Englund Swedish National Focal Point of the RAXEN network Expo Foundation Stockholm, October 2002 DISCLAIMER: This study has been compiled by the National Focal Point of the European Monitoring Centre on Racism and Xenophobia (EUMC). The opinions expressed by the author/s do not necessarily reflect the opinion or position of the EUMC. No mention of any authority, organisation, company or individual shall imply any approval as to their standing and capability on the part of the EUMC. This study is provided by the National Focal Point as information guide only, and in particular does not constitute legal advice. 2 Executive summary On 21 January 2002, 26-year-old Fadime Sahindal was shot to death by her father in her sister’s flat in Uppsala, north from Stockholm. The family is of Kurdish origin and came as refugees to Sweden from Turkey. This murder has had a great impact on Swedish society as a whole. The murder became one of the largest media stories of the year with an intensive coverage in television and other media. For two weeks it was the single leading story, eclipsing news about the war in Afghanistan and other large topics. The Fadime Sahindal murder has touched the whole Swedish nation. She has become a »martyr of our time«. The murder has also had great impact on the Swedish authorities’ work regarding subjected girls of migrant origin.

  • Schibsted Asa En Fundamental Verdsettelse
    NORGES HANDELSHØYSKOLE Bergen, høsten 2006 Utredning i fordypnings-/spesialfagsområdet: BUS Økonomisk styring Veileder: Førsteamanuensis Knut Boye SCHIBSTED ASA EN FUNDAMENTAL VERDSETTELSE av Anne Merete B. Henriksen og Elin Magnussen Denne utredningen er gjennomført som et ledd i siviløkonomutdanningen ved Norges Handelshøyskole og godkjent som sådan. Godkjenningen innebærer ikke at høyskolen innestår for de metoder som er anvendt, de resultater som er fremkommet eller de konklusjoner som er trukket i arbeidet. Forord Når vi i dag ser tilbake på arbeidet som er lagt ned for å få til denne utredningen, så har det vært en lang, men lærerik prosess. Valg av tema for oppgaven ble besluttet allerede i løpet av vårsemesteret 2005, og valget av hvilket selskap vi skulle verdsette falt raskt på plass. Schibsted er et interessant selskap i en spennende bransje hvor utviklingen går raskt. Gleden har vært stor hver gang våre vyer for fremtiden har slått til, og analyser er skrevet om mang en gang ettersom tiden har gått og veien endret seg. Vi satt lenge på hver vår side av landet, noe som har bydd på visse utfordringer. For en periode vokste oppgaven også sakte, men sikkert via msn mellom Polen og Norge. Etter alt arbeidet vi nå har lagt ned i denne utredningen, kan vi endelig si oss godt fornøyd med resultatet. Oppgaven hadde imidlertid ikke blitt like bra uten råd og tips underveis. Vi vil derfor rette en stor takk til Førsteamanuensis Knut Boye for sin fleksibilitet, gode veiledning og nyttige råd. Vi håper denne oppgaven vil være informativ for deg som leser, og at den gir et bra bilde av hvordan situasjonen til Schibsted er i dag og hvordan utviklingen mest sannsynlig blir framover.

  • Annual Report 2010 Well Poised for the Future
    ANNUAL REPORT 2010 WELL POISED FOR THE FUTURE The Schibsted Media Group had a very strong year in 2010. With good help from an advertising market showing strong growth, the effects of a large and extensive profitability program and the hard efforts of our employees, we can safely say that we are now far better positioned than we were a year ago. This means that our jobs are more secure, our impact stronger, the focus on growth is back and our capacity for innovation has been strengthened. All this is good news for both our employees and the millions of people who use and enjoy our products every day, whether they read the news or use our online classifieds. It is also good news for our owners. Leading market positions and good profitability combined with the capacity and will for innovation has created a solid rate of return on the Schibsted share in 2010. Stronger pillars Our two strategic pillars are media houses and online classifieds. In 2010 these two areas were given a considerable boost: in the autumn of 2010 Schibsted succeeded in gaining full control of Leboncoin.fr, a French website in which Schibsted was involved in launching in 2006 and which was based on the successful Swedish Blocket concept. In the course of these years Leboncoin has managed to establish itself as one of the leading websites in France. It is the third-largest online classifieds and auction websites in the whole of Europe. Having full control provides us with greater opportunities to capitalize on this fantastic market position to develop both Leboncoin and new online businesses in the vast French market.

The group is to strive for quality and credibility in all its publications, and defend values such as religious freedom, tolerance, human rights and democratic principles. The Trust shall also work to achieve long-term healthy, financial develop- ment of the Schibsted Media Group. Tinius Nagell-Erichsen, who established the Trust in May 1996, placed considerable emphasis on the work for freedom of expression and a free press, the best safeguard of a strong and vibrant democracy. The defence of these values is a task that the Trust, bearing his name, takes seriously. The Tinius Trust manages the largest block of shares in the ­Schibsted Media Group. As long as the Trust owns more than 25.0 per cent of the shares outstanding, it has considerable influence over the owner- ship of Schibsted. During the course of 2010, the Trust’s responsibilities have been extended. Amendments in the statues and appointment of the Editor-in-Chief of Aftenposten, Norway’s largest newspaper, now require the approval of the Trust.
