Abstract [sv]

Denna studie utgör en jämförande innehållsanalys mellan ett reality-program och en fiktiv dystopi. Studien syftar till att undersöka hur underliggande maktstrukturer tar sig uttryck i belöningar och bestraffningar. Analysen baseras på två frågeställningar: Hur konstrueras belöningar och bestraffningar i Bachelor Sverige 2019? och: Hur konstrueras belöningar och bestraffningar i The Handmaid’s Tale? För att analysera materialet används multimodal kritisk diskursanalys (MCDA) både som teori och metod, kompletterat med genusteori och feministisk teori samt tillhörande underbegrepp.

Analysresultatet presenteras i tre framträdande teman: MaktutövningMannen som måletoch Den stereotypa mannen och kvinnan. I diskussionen behandlas analysresultatet i förhållande till vårt nutida samhälles patriarkala strukturer. Studiens resultat bekräftar den tidigare forskning som redan konstaterat att underliggande maktstrukturer mellan könen förmedlas både av verkliga samt fiktiva karaktärer, oavsett genre.

Abstract [en]

The analysis is based on two research questions: How are rewards and punishments constructed in Bachelor Sweden 2019?and: How are rewards and punishments constructed in The Handmaid’s Tale?In the analysis, multimodal critical discourse analysis (MCDA) is used both as theory and method, completed with gender theory and feminist theory along with associated sub-concepts.  

The result of the analysis is presented in three themes: The exercise of powerThe man as the goal andThe stereotypical man and woman.The result isalso discussed in relation to current patriarchal structures in the society. The result confirms previous research that has already established that underlying power structures between the sexes are mediated by both real and fictional characters, regardless of genre.
