They Actually do Get More Money
This article analyses myths as a societal and discursive mechanism for maintaining and reproducing hierarchical ethnic relations. Theoretically, we rely on Paulo Freire and discursive social psychology (DSP) in conceptualising myths as false perceptions that act as counterforces to a critically informed understanding of reality and end up discursively reproducing the societal status quo with its unequal power relations. The data was produced as p…
Fear of the Russian bear? Negotiating Finnish national identity online
National identities are an important tool for collective political persuasion and mobilisation among political elites and lay people. Recent research on nationalism has shown that the negotiating of national identities, like any political deliberations and operations, increasingly occur on the Internet. In this study, we contribute to this research by examining the relational construction of Finnish identity online. More specifically, we focus on…
‘As a Native Person, Why Should I Adapt?’
Multiculturalism is a controversial concept and a debated topic. To develop scientific analysis and inform political discussions, it is important to study how lay people evaluate it. Previous research has mostly regarded attitudes towards multiculturalism as unidimensional. This research often relies on the operationalisation offered by the Multicultural Ideology Scale (MIS), in which minorities’ cultural maintenance and acceptance of cultural di…
The nightmare of multiculturalism’
Social media is an important transmitter of anti-immigration political rhetoric. In this study, we examine the discussions posted in a Finnish online forum provoked by an MP’s anti-multiculturalist Facebook post. We draw upon frame analysis and discursive social psychology to analyse the communicative processes that challenge and normalise anti-immigration political rhetoric. Using frame analysis, we study how forum users entered heated societal …

Negotiations of immigrants’ cultural citizenship in discussions among majority members and immigrants in Finland
In this paper we analyze how cultural citizenship is discursively constructed and negotiated in discussions about integration of immigrants among Finnish majority members and different immigrant groups in Finland. We found two distinct patterns of talking about rights and responsibilities of immigrants. In the first, conforming to mainstream culture was treated as the responsibility of immigrants and an ideal form of integration in Finland. Conve…
Interpretative repertoires of multiculturalism – Supporting and challenging hierarchical intergroup relations
Social psychological research on immigrant integration has predominantly examined multiculturalism from the perspective of majority members, and has seen it to be in conflict with that of minority members. In this discursive psychological study, we analyzed how members of the Finnish majority and different immigrant groups discussed managing ethnic and cultural diversity. As a result, four different interpretative repertoires of multiculturalism …
