Förhandlingsbar identitet - en studie av indianerna i USA

In this thesis I discuss and analyze different factors, and different circumstances, that influence Identity negotiation among the north american indians. I do this mainly by using two models.The first one is Druckmans three dimensions of Identity; negotiating Identity, durability of Identity and spread of Identity. Depending on how the Identity fits in these dimensions one can se if, or how, they influence the negotiability.My second model for analyzing is Reeds ?fasteing and unfastening Identity?, using this model I have tried to understand during what circumstances the Identity is negotiable. The Identity is more or less negotiable depending on where the indians live, who they are living with and also on their inheritance.My results shows that the indian Identity is changing and developing over time but the main characteristics still remains the same.

AbstractWhen immigrants move to Sweden from their native country it is not unusual that they experience some kind of Identity crises. Their own experience of their cultural Identity can be very problematic and they often lose a part of what they previously saw as their own Identity.

The aim of this study is to examine how immigrants in Sweden experience that their cultural Identity has changed since they moved here from a country that has a culture that is different from the Swedish culture.

This results in a collective European Identity where states are united in diversity.National identities are created when boundaries are set up in a relation to other states.

Europa - en plats eller en idé? : En diskursanalys av den europeiska identitetens konstruktion

Today Europe is faced with an Identity crisis concerning its borders. Turkey stands at the threshold for an EU-membership while the EU-Commission is trying to formulate what constitutes a European Identity. This Identity seeking process will determine the future not only for Turkey, but also for immigrants now living in Europe.In this thesis a discourse analysis, underpinned by socialconstructionist theory, is conducted to explore how the European Identity has been constructed throughout history up until today. A starting point is that Identity always is defined through a dialectical relationship to "otherness". Therefore the analysis is focused not only on what a European Identity consists of but also what and who it excludes.
