Abstract [sv]

Fötterna på jorden och jord under naglarna. Thorbjörn Fälldin gick hem hos folket i tv-sofforna. Bonden som blev politiker och statsminister gjorde ett stort avtryckt under sitt 90-åriga liv. Hans politiska gärning har varit med och format svensk politik. Redan i 20-årsåldern när Fälldin påbörjar sin politiska karriär skriver media om hans potential på den politiska arenan. I det historiska valet 1976 lyckas han bryta Socialdemokraternas styre och blir statsminister, en roll han fortsätter att ha tre något kaotiska regeringar. Fälldin unika politisk karriär är intressant i sig, men den är även spännande ur ett kommunikationsperspektiv. Mitt under Fälldins politiska resa får tv sitt genombrott i Sverige och relationen mellan journalister och politiker förändras, en utveckling som i sin tur påverkade den politiska kommunikationen i Sverige.

Fälldins politiska gärningar är ett intressant exempel på hur politiker och deras kommunikation förändras över tid. Den här texten är en populärvetenskaplig essä som ger en historisk tillbakablick på Thorbjörn Fälldins politiska arbete ur ett kommunikationsperspektiv och en inblick i politisk kommunikation under ett halvsekel i svensk politisk historia. Texten är baserad på material från Fälldins personarkiv som finns på riksarkivet i Härnösand.

Abstract [en]

This paper offers insights into how public affairs practitioners perceive their often-debated role in the political process. By examining the specific group of public affairs practitioners called “revolvers”, i.e. individuals who move from a position in the political sphere to a position as a public affairs consultant or vice-versa, we engage in the on-going discussion concerning the legitimacy of public affairs in modern democracies. The empirical material consists of interviews with revolvers who as public affairs practitioners have experience of working in the Swedish political sphere, as well as the commercially driven public affairs industry. Consequently, the article contributes to our understanding of lobbying in the political process from the perspective of the controversial revolvers and gives us an important insight into how revolvers in Sweden argue and act in their efforts to create legitimacy for their role by attempting to fuse corporate and public interests. The perception which is predominant in this study, suggests that the revolvers regard themselves as a kind of corporatist influence in a democratic society rather than a special interest influencer. The revolvers appear to find common ground when defining the purpose and contribution of their occupation as advocates, but that different lines of arguments arise when practitioners displace and differentiate themselves from the tainted work connected to lobbying and advocacy tasks. Hence it is clear that there is tension between the professional role conception and role performance.

Abstract [en]

Focusing on fake news, disinformation, and misinformation, this chapter addresses how the main actors in the political communication process (politicians, news media, and citizens) deal with the increasingly complex information environment in Scandinavia. In this chapter, we examine how politicians apply the term “fake news” in relation to both news media and political opponents. Additionally, we address how the news media deal with the challenge of fake news and disinformation, typically through verification and fact-checking. Lastly, we examine how citizens relate to fake news, employing data from the Reuters Digital News Report (Newman et al., 2018) from the three Scandinavian countries: Norway, Sweden, and Denmark. This study demonstrates that we need new methods for digital source criticism, verification, and media literacy in an information environment suited to the information manipulation of text, icons, images, and video.

Abstract [sv]

Fyra forskare i en snabbrapport: Valet i USA 2020 kommer att ge avtryck i många länder. Men betydelsen av maktskiftet ska inte överdrivas. Biden har signalerat ett större intresse för internationellt samarbete än president Trump. Men Biden möter stora utmaningar på hemmaplan, och snabba stordåd på den globala arenan är inte att vänta sig.
