Abstract [en]

In early 2018, attention was drawn to the case of Cambridge Analytica, which had collected private information from users Facebookdata whose purpose was to help Donald Trump in the 2016 election. A global debate was launched on the effects of digitalisation on both personal integrity, politics and democracy. There are several large newspaper editorial offices in Sweden that daily inform a large number of people about possible national or global political challenges, fears or effects of various types of phenomena that affect both citizens and political systems. Studying a phenomenon based on media reporting is an important observation point due to its significant societal influence and to limit the observations associated with the Cambridge Analytica scandal, it probably contributes to a more increased and global discussion that also includes Swedish media reporting. To approach an answer to what effects digitalisation has on democracy, Swedish media reporting is studied some time before and after CA to compare and to answer the question "What ideas are emphasized in the Swedish media about the effects of digitalisation on democracy linked to Robert A. Dahl's polyarchical model? ". The results show that the most dominant idea in medias reporting is that digitalisation is a real threat to democracy. Medias reporting shows a degree increase from a potential threat to a real one.
