ILD B RESSENS P / Photo: Torbjörn Andersson Photo: Torbjörn The new country Introduction Until just a decade or so ago, Sweden was a society that assumed all its residents were the same. They spoke the same language, shared the same history, religion and tradi- tions, and had more or less the same ideas about what constitutes a good society. It is possible that the similarities seemed greater than they really were. The regional and cultural differences that existed in pre-modern Sweden were great, as were the differences between social classes, and the differences between locals and outsiders. Even in the strong commu- The new country – introduction 8 Sweden – a pocket guide nity of Sweden’s modern welfare state, some people were more equal than others. And thus there were those who, more or less under duress, had to adapt or be cast out: vagrants, the Sami, gypsies, homosexuals, Jews, the bio- logically inferior, the socially deviant, the mentally disabled. Inner and outer boundaries opening up Today, we are painfully aware that that was the wrong approach, that the dream of a society based on everyone’s similarity can easily turn into a nightmare. Today, we better understand the distinctiveness and difference of every individual. This is not only because more people from diverse cultures have come here and become our neigh- bours; our entire culture has become more individualised. That which distinguishes us from one another has become as important and valuable as that which unites us. We all want to “do our own thing”, shape our lives as we see fit, find the communities that suit us, be just as different as we feel we truly are. The boundary between the familiar and the foreign no longer runs through the nearest passport control – it runs right through our midst. Diversity becomes everyday life For a while, it seemed natural to speak of the Swedes and their immigrants, or of the majority society and its minori- ties, or of Swedish culture and multiculture. Today we re- alise that diversity and difference are here to stay. Sweden is now “a community with social diversity as its founda- tion”, a society in which “general policy, in a way utterly distinct from previous eras, must spring from and reflect the ethnic and cultural diversity that exists in society” (“Sweden, future and diversity – from immigrant policy to integration policy”, government bill 1997/98:16).

A revolutionary commitment But it turns out not to be so self-evident at all. The fact that the ethnic and cultural composition of Swedish society is changing will not necessarily entail a corresponding change in Sweden’s social apparatus. A society based on ethnic and cultural diversity is actually a revolutionary commitment for a country like Sweden, and indeed for all democracies which more or less explicitly base their com- munity of welfare on ideas of historical and cultural affin- ity. And which thus, more or less explicitly, have demand- ed cultural adaptation and uniformity. A democracy that wants to base its sense of community on ideas of human difference and cultural diversity cannot exact the same demands. It cannot assume an unwritten The new country – introduction 10 Sweden – a pocket guide ethnic and cultural affinity as the basis for social solidari- ty. Nor can it assume that its citizens have more or less the same values and preferences. Instead, it must seek to unite culturally distinct values with culturally blind societal institutions, to bridge cultur- al differences with cross-cultural justice. It must succeed in disabusing itself of the notion that diversity is a passing un- pleasantness. It must succeed in instilling the idea, in a ma- jority of its citizens, that difference and diversity are per- manent and essentially enriching conditions. Get down to work – the only alternative There are those who assert that such a democracy is an im- possibility, for people instinctively shun the alien and cling to the familiar at the first hint of crisis. There are those who assert that people are just as instinctively drawn to and stimulated by encounters with other cultures and lifestyles, and that what democracy is facing today is a historic op- portunity, not an insoluble problem. In any case, we cannot opt out of the ethnic and cultur- al diversity of our society. We can no more do so than we can opt out of an existence with increasingly open borders, ever faster communications and more and more regular contact between people around the globe. Those who today advocate a society based on ethnic and Over the years the face of Sweden has changed.

  • A Walkabout Around Historical Blasieholmen and Nybroviken in Stockholm Along the Baltic Sea Water Inlet to Stockholm
    A Walkabout around historical Blasieholmen and Nybroviken in Stockholm along the Baltic Sea water inlet to Stockholm. Our walkabout will start at Kungsträdgården (King’s Garden) and continue along the streets around Blasieholmen towards Nybroviken (New Bridge Bay), where we will view many objects of interests. We will receive more value from the walkabout if we develop a better un- derstanding of the local history of an area when we are viewing the many visual objects. Area around Blasieholmen and Nybroviken Photo: Arlid Vågen I’m arriving at Kungsträdgården Metro Station (1), located in the district of Norrmalm. The platform is located approximately 115ft (34m) under ground. During the exit from the metro station I see several relics rescued from the many buildings demolished, during the some- times tragic redevelopment period of central Stockholm during the period of the 1950s and 1960s. I continue walking along the Birgit Nils- son Allè towards the Stockholm Ström water- front area. Birgit Nilsson was the Swedish world known dramatic opera soprano excelling Walking map for this Walkabout in Wagner style operas. The park Kungsträdgården is divided into four distinct spaces: Square of Charles XII; Molin’s Fountain; Square of Charles XIII and “Fountain of Wolodarski”. My absolute favorite is Charles XII statue, on my right in the middle of the park, with his arm pointing eastward. The story is that he had some un- finished business with the Russians (what’s new...). During the spring time Kungsträdgården presents a stunning view of flower- ing cherry blossoms for the visitor. I soon arrive at Stockholm Ström and see the Royal Castle to my right across the water and the famous Grand Hotel (2) and Nationalmuseum (3) to my left.

  • Language Variation and Ethnicity in a Multicultural East London Secondary School
    Language Variation and Ethnicity in a Multicultural East London Secondary School Shivonne Marie Gates Queen Mary, University of London April 2019 Abstract Multicultural London English (MLE) has been described as a new multiethnolect borne out of indirect language contact among ethnically-diverse adolescent friendship groups (Cheshire et al. 2011). Evidence of ethnic stratification was also found: for example, “non-Anglo” boys were more likely to use innovative MLE diphthong variants than other (male and female) participants. However, the data analysed by Cheshire and colleagues has limited ethnographic information and as such the role that ethnicity plays in language change and variation in London remains unclear. This is not dissimilar to other work on multiethnolects, which presents an orientation to a multiethnic identity as more salient than different ethnic identities (e.g. Freywald et al. 2011). This thesis therefore examines language variation in a different MLE-speaking adolescent community to shed light on the dynamics of ethnicity in a multicultural context. Data were gathered through a 12-month ethnography of a Year Ten (14-15 years old) cohort at Riverton, a multi-ethnic secondary school in Newham, East London, and include field notes and interviews with 27 students (19 girls, 8 boys). A full multivariate analysis of the face and price vowels alongside a quantitative description of individual linguistic repertoires sheds light on MLE’s status as the new London vernacular. Building on the findings of Cheshire et al. (2011), the present study suggests that language variation by ethnicity can have social meaning in multi-ethnic communities. There are apparent ethnolinguistic repertoires: ethnic minority boys use more advanced vowel realisations alongside high rates of DH-stopping, and the more innovative was/were levelling system.

The examination will be conducted in English. Faculty examiner: Professor Helga Kotthoff (University of Freiburg). Abstract Kontio, J. 2016. Auto Mechanics in English. Language Use and Classroom Identity Work. Uppsala Studies in Education 139. 97 pp. Uppsala: Acta Universitatis Upsaliensis. ISBN 978-91-554-9591-6. This is a compilation thesis consisting of three different articles with the purpose to explore the relationships between language practices, identity construction and learning in the context of the Vehicle Program, a vocational program in Swedish upper secondary schools. A feature of the particular setting studied here that sets it apart from the general education of auto mechanics in Sweden is that it was carried out in English. The study focuses on language practices within a community of practice where the norms for second language use, gender arrangements and identity work are negotiated in conversations between students and between students and teachers. The language practices are considered as talk-in-interaction, and identity construction and learning are understood as processes in socially situated activities. The study was conducted through an ethnographic approach, including observation, field notes, approximately 200 hours of video recorded interactions, and interviews with students and teachers. The recorded interactions were analysed using tools from conversational analysis and methods focusing on linguistic activities and interactional patterns.

  • Debating Swedish
    Debating Swedish Language Politics and Ideology in Contemporary Sweden Tommaso M. Milani Centre for Research on Bilingualism Stockholm University Doctoral Dissertation 2007 Centre for Research on Bilingualism Stockholm University Abstract This thesis is concerned with three language debates that reached their most crucial peaks in Sweden at the beginning of the twenty-first century: (i) the debate on the promotion of the Swedish language, (ii) the debate on language testing for citizenship, and (iii) the debate on mother tongue instruction. The main scope of the thesis is to take a theoreti- cally multi-pronged approach to these debates trying to shed light on the following aspects: Why did such debates emerge when they did? Which discourses were available in those specific historical moments? Who are the social actors that intervened in these debates? What is at stake for them? What do they claim? What systems of values, ideas and beliefs – i.e. ideologies – underlie such claims? What are the effects in terms of identities, objects of political intervention, commonsensical knowledge and authority that these discourses and ideologies produce? Taking Sweden as a case in point, the thesis adds to the existing literature another example of how language debates are the manifestation of conflicts between different language ideologies that struggle for hegemony, thus attempting to impose one specific way of envisaging the management of a nation-state in a time of globalisation. In their outer and most patent facets, these struggles deal with the relationships between languages in today’s Sweden, and how the state, through legislation, should – or should not – regulate such relationships in order to (re)produce some kind of linguistic order.

  • Making the Threatening Other Laughable: Ambiguous Performances of Urban Vernaculars in Swedish Media
    Making the threatening Other laughable: Ambiguous performances of urban vernaculars in Swedish media See also: Jonsson, Rickard, Franzén, Anna & Milani, Tommaso M. (2020). Making the threatening other laughable: Ambiguousperformances of urban vernaculars in Swedish media, Language & Communication, 71, 1-15. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.langcom.2019.11.001 Introduction Youth speech styles in multilingual settings have been the object of a large body of sociolinguistic inquiry since the early 1980s (see Hewitt, 1982, 1986; Kotsinas, 1988; see also Cheshire et al., 2011; Kern and Selting, 2011; Madsen, Karrebæk and Møller, 2015; Nortier and Svendsen, 2015; Quist and Svendsen, 2010; Wiese, 2012). Rampton (2011, 2015) has recently suggested the umbrella term ‘contemporary urban vernaculars’ to label these linguistic phenomena in a way that transcends age and ethnicity. After all, contemporary urban vernaculars are not only employed by young people (see in particular Rampton, 2015; Eliaso Magnusson and Stroud, 2012), nor are they spoken by ethnic minorities alone (Årman, 2018). In the Swedish context, the term ‘ortensvenska’ (‘Suburban Swedish’) has been used to refer to these linguistic phenomena. Here the Swedish word orten literally means ‘suburb’ and carries the social class connotation of the American ‘project’ or the British ‘estate’. Another well spread label of the same style, ‘Rinkeby Swedish’ (Rinkebysvenska), also refers to an urban periphery: the multiethnic and socioeconomically disadvantaged Stockholm suburb of Rinkeby. Most importantly for the purpose of this article, ‘Rinkeby’ Swedish has been turned by media discourses into an ‘icon’ (Irvine and Gal, 2000) of ethnic otherness, associated with an aggressively sexist and homophobic masculinity (Author 1, 2007; Author 1 and Author 3, 2009; Author 3, 2010; Author 3 and Author 1, 2012: Stroud, 2004, see also Cornips, Jaspers and Rooij, 2015 for a discussion on labelling of styles).
