Abstract [en]

This study aims to account for the distribution of responsibility between the actors' state, market and individual. A discourse analysis inspired by a WPR-model is used to answer how the actors’ responsibilities for the climate and power relations between each other are portrayed in three public documents. The first one focuses on tax reduction for installation of green technology. The second public document concentrates on change of the system called bonus-malus whilst the last document puts the sustainability of the society at focus. The public documents are analyzed through Marxist theory and a Foucauldian perspective. This study suggests that the state has the most responsibility and power to propose solutions but that it is the individual in the end, that has the power to make the solutions give an effect, while the market has to adapt its production to the state’s regulations and the individual’s demand. Furthermore, the responsibility and power relations of the actors differ depending on which subjectsposition that is used.
