2010年瑞典大选后,种族主义的瑞典民主党进入议会。选举后的反应和讨论主要集中在一个问题上,即瑞典议会中存在一个种族主义政党如何扰乱了该国作为人类先锋和反种族主义灯塔的例外主义形象和特权地位-无论是在西方还是在非西方世界。本文旨在从种族和白人研究的角度来了解瑞典的现状。我们将当代瑞典视为一个“危机中的白色国家”,并诊断瑞典社会患有“白色种族主义”。为了理清和阐明什么是被认为是哀悼和什么是被视为失去了未来,这篇文章提供了一个历史化的帐户的三个主要阶段,阶段和时刻的瑞典国家建设和白色;“白色纯度”(1905年至1968年);“白色团结”(1968年至2001年);和“白色团结”,从2001年起。分析还考虑到这三个国家建设项目和霸权的白人和种族语法制度是如何相互关联的,并与不同的性别和阶级关系,种族形成,少数民族话语,以及各种政治意识形态和情感结构的特点,这三个时期。
After the election in Sweden in 2010, the racist Sweden Democrats party entered parliament. Post-election reactions and discussions were largely preoccupied with the issue of how the presence of a racist party in the Swedish parliament disturbs the country's exceptionalist image and privileged position – both in the West and in the non-Western world – as humanity's avant-garde and beacon for antiracism. This article aims to understand the current situation in Sweden from a critical race and whiteness studies perspective. We regard contemporary Sweden as a ‘white nation in crisis’, and diagnose Swedish society as suffering from a ‘white melancholia’. In order to disentangle and shed light upon what is perceived to be mourned and what is seen as being lost for the future, the article offers an historicised account of three principal phases, stages and moments of Swedish nation-building and whiteness; ‘white purity’ (1905–1968); ‘white solidarity’ (1968–2001); and ‘white melancholy’, from 2001 onwards. The analysis also takes into account how these three nation-building projects and hegemonic whiteness and racial grammar regimes are interrelated, and intersect with the different gender and class relations; racial formations; minority discourses; and various political ideologies and affective structures characterising these three periods.
