My maternal home, like my mother’s place”: Spatial meaning-making and narrative contestation in the asylum process
This article explores how narratives of geographical place are constructed and negotiated in interpreter-mediated asylum interviews in Sweden. Drawing on a case study of one asylum seeker’s account, it examines how negotiations of place function as narrative resources under institutional constraints. Combining concepts of polycentricity, orders of indexicality, and interactional positioning, the analysis shows how narratives about place are co-co…
Building resilience in times of turbulence: Agentive responses to changing conditions for Greek heritage language education in Sweden
Drawing on theories of agency in LPP (e.g., Bouchard and Glasgow, in: Bouchard, Glasgow (eds) Agency in language policy and planning. Critical inquiries, Routledge, 2019) and educational governance (e.g., Ramiel and Lefstein in Camb J Educ 52(2):217–233, 2022), this study investigates the conditions under which heritage language schools operate outside national support structures. It is based on a linguistic ethnographic case study of a Greek com…
Structural constraints and agentive responses: Comparing two systems of Greek heritage language education in Sweden
This study investigates two distinct ways of organising heritage language education within one national context. More specifically, we investigate the teaching of Greek in Sweden through: (a) mother tongue instruction provided by the national education system and (b) a complementary school run by a parental organisation. Drawing on Archer’s morphogenetic approach (1995), where structure, culture and agency are seen as separate but interrelated an…
‘Do I Have to Say Exactly Word by Word?’ (Re)producing and Negotiating Asymmetrical Relations in Asylum Interviews
In this paper, we conduct a critical discourse analytical study of asylum interviews in order to contribute to knowledge and awareness of (a) how asymmetrical power relations are discursively (re)produced as well as manoeuvred and negotiated during the interaction and (b) what this means in terms of positioning of the participants. Focusing on a number of metacommunicative sequences characterised by a notably high degree of interpersonal complexi…
Managing a discourse of reporting: The complex composing of an asylum narrative
The aim of this study is to demonstrate how the presence of an emerging written record may affect the content of an asylum narrative, based on which a decision concerning the asylum claimant’s right to receive protection eventually is taken. The lion’s share of studies on interpreter-mediated asylum interviews to date focus on risks involved with assigning non-professionals to perform the interpreting. This study draws specifically on a 3.5 min-l…
Health literacy as knowledge construction: Learning about health by expanding objects and crossing boundaries in networked activities
In this paper we examine health literacy as a set of practices that unfold in networked activity systems. Focusing on the literacy practices of pregnant couples and parents of children with heart defect, we show that they participate in multiple activities with the object of constructing knowledge about the child's condition. The contexts for these activities are doctor-patient consultations and the parents' online searching and sharing. The stud…
