O/rättvis representation av utsatthet och lidande : En kritisk analys av Röda Korsets, UNHCRs & Svenska kyrkans representation av flyktingsituationen 2015

Med premissen att medierepresentation påverkar och påverkas av diskurser, värderingar ochnormer söker denna studie undersöka hur människor i utsatthet och lidande framställs i filmerav icke-statliga organisationer med inriktning på humanitärt bistånd. Med syftet att belysafaktorer i filmerna som kan uttrycka attityd- och värderingsförändringar fokuserar studien påfilmer från s.k. ”flyktingsituationen hösten 2015” då denna situation och period var och äraktualiserad i offentliga och privata samtal. Den teoretiska basen utgörs av Representation(Stuart Hall) och följaktligen ämnen som berör media och moral, distansering ochdifferentiering av människor samt solidaritet som ekonomisk vara. Med hjälp av NormanFaircloughs kritiska diskursanalys och Lilie Chouliarakis tillämpning av metoden visarresultatet att semiotiska/multimodala instrument refererar till emotionella referenser därmänniskorna som lider undermineras till fördel för organisationens varumärke vilket ävenbidrar till konstruktionen av ett Vi och ett De. Denna konstruktion av differentiering kanföljaktligen bero på en värderingsdiskurs som baseras på västerländska privilegier ochproblematiseras vidare i relation till nationalitetsdiskurser.

This work has as object of study a social practice: modern slavery of workers in the sugar cane, and aims to present a reflection on maintenance, eradication or modification of this practice. This reflection bases itself upon the concepts of discourse advocated by Critical Discourse Analysis (Fairclough, 2001, 2003, 2006 and Chouliaraki; Fairclough, 1999) associated with Sociodiscursive Interactionism (Bronckart, 1999, 2006, 2008), and the concept of action figures, proposed by Bulea (2010). We follow the five steps outlined in Chouliaraki and Fairclough (1999): a) emphasis on a social problem, b) introduction and discussion of obstacles to tackle the problem, c) considerations concern the problem in practice d) identifying possible ways to past the obstacles, and e) reflection about the analyst role within the problem. In order to achieve step (b) in its discourse materiality axis, it has been identified the thematic content, discourse types, enunciative mechanisms and action figures of testimonials of sugar cane workers and other subjects involved with the problem in the documentaries Bagaço (2006, and Tabuleiro de Cana, Xadrez de Cativeiro (2006). These documentaries bring to the screen a little of sugar cane workers reality within an overexploitation, human rights disrespects and forced work. The analysis of textual/discursive aspects of testimonials has shown the ways in which the (de)construction of the representation of sugar cane action allows understanding of how the problem emerges and how it is rooted in the organization of social life. The general result of this reflection point to the internalization of social practices deep-rooted in evaluations of the sugar cane worker subjective world and from social world values, opinions and rules. The results also show that, in their discourse, workers assume their slavery sometimes consciously, sometimes unconsciously, but only suggest a reaction against the oppression imposed on them because they have internalized and naturalized their enslavement.
