| Popis: | Specialets kontekst er klimaforandringer og Indigenous modstandsbevægelser. Forskningen tager afsæt i idéen om klimaforandringer som et kolonialt déjà vu for Indigenous grupper (Whyte, 2016). Specialet undersøger udvalgt videomateriale fra den svenske Sámi musikkunstner Sofia Jannok, som situeres som en subjekt i ’contact zone’ (Pratt, 1992). Gennem Ahmeds værk The Cultural Politics of Emotion (2004) undersøger specialet den smerte, vrede og forulempelse, som udtrykkes i Sofia Jannoks videoer som respons på den svenske stats politik og mineselskabers tilstedeværelse i Sápmi. Forskningen diskuterer også følelsers politiske transformationspotentiale ved at analysere, hvordan håb, aktivisme og ønsker for fremtiden artikuleres i videomaterialet. Endelig forbinder specialet klimaforandringer med Aileens (2015) begreb ‘possessive logics’, som kaster lys på hvidhedens ontologi, og argumenterer for anvendelsen af Sámi ontologier som alternativer til profitskabelses logikker. Specialets metodologiske tilgang er multimodal kritisk diskursanalyse (Machin and Mayr, 2012).Keywords: klimaforandringer; Indigenous; kolonialisme; Sámi music; Sofia Jannok; smerte; vrede; forulempelse; modstandsfortællinger; transformation; Sámi ontologi; Sverige. The topic of this thesis is situated in the context of climate change and Indigenous resistance movements. It takes the point of departure in Whyte’s (2016) argument that climate change is a colonial déjà vu for Indigenous people. It examines the selected video material of a Swedish Sámi musician Sofia Jannok, who is situated as a subject in a contact zone (Pratt, 1992). Drawing on Ahmed’s The Cultural Politics of Emotion (2004), it aims to examine how pain, anger, and injury, articulated in the video material of Sofia Jannok, is a result of the policies that take place in Sápmi, facilitated by Sweden as a nation-state and the establishment of mining companies. It also approaches the politics of emotion as possibilities for transformation, analysing how hope, activism, and aspirations for the future are articulated in the selected video material. Lastly, it connects climate change with Aileen’s (2015) term ‘possessive logics’, which scrutinizes whiteness at the ontological level, and urges to turn to Sámi ontologies to find an alternative for profit-based practices. The analytical approach is based on Multimodal Critical Discourse Analysis, provided by Machin and Mayr (2012). Keywords: climate change, Indigenous, colonialism, Sámi music, Sofia Jannok, pain, anger, injury, counter-discourse, transformation, Sámi ontology, Sweden as a nation-state. |
