Abstract:
Abstract In the 16 months before TIME magazine naming Greta Thunberg its Person of the Year, as her influence grew, so too did the news media’s attempts to make sense of her. This project analyzes profiles of Greta Thunberg to understand how journalists constructed the persona that has become “Greta.” We argue the paradoxical framing of Thunberg as exceptional and fierce and childlike contributes to an alternative construction of girlhood grounded in the positive portrayal of her Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) diagnosis. While featuring ASD as her “superpower” is potentially progressive, we argue foregrounding Thunberg’s whiteness and age cements her construction as the iconic voice of the climate crisis movement, potentially downplaying the need for collective action to end climate change.

Abstract:
"The Syntax of Climate Change: Syntactic Means in the Construction of Greta Thunberg’s Community Identity on Facebook. It is argued that the identity of an online community (e.g., a Facebook community) is manifested by linguistic devices, such as syntactic means (Androutsopoulos 2015; Blumenfeld-Jones 2022; Kapranov 2019). This contention is explored in the study that is further presented and discussed in the article. The study seeks to identify syntactic means, in particular dependent clauses, which are involved in the construction of Greta Thunberg’s community identity on Facebook. Greta Thunberg, a famous climate change activist from Sweden, has a public account on Facebook that is followed by a substantial number of Facebook users, who, presumably, share her views on climate change, sustainability, and other environmental issues. It is assumed in the study that Greta Thunberg’s status updates on her public Facebook account could be characterised by syntactic means that facilitate the construction of the climate activists’ community identity. In order to verify the assumption, a corpus of Greta Thunberg’s status updates on Facebook was collected and analysed by the software program L2 Syntactic Complexity Analyzer (Lu 2010). The computer-assisted analysis was supplemented by a manual procedure of identifying the types of dependent clauses in the corpus. The results of the corpus analysis revealed that Greta Thunberg’s community construction on Facebook was facilitated by such syntactic means as dependent clauses, in particular non-finite, adverbial, and relative clauses. The findings were further discussed in the article through the lens of the construction of community identity.

Abstract:
The role and significance of young activists in the process of international norm creation, diffusion, internalisation, and implementation have not received much attention in academic research. Yet, as a case study of Greta Thunberg campaigning on climate change has proven, children and teenagers can become significant norm entrepreneurs. Using the theoretical underpinnings of social constructivism, this article identifies and analyses Thunberg’s actions to exhort pressure on states, members of governments and international organisations to further develop and implement norms that would help save the planet from the imminent climate crisis. Our research uses an exploratory and inductive approach in which qualitative research methods (a case study of Greta Thunberg) and discourse analysis are applied.

Abstract:
The objectives of this research were to explain the interpersonal meaning, to describe the dominant mood system, and to describe the pedagogical implications realized in Greta Thunberg’s speech that deliver at the UN Climate Action Summit 2019. The design of this research is qualitative that used descriptive qualitative approach. To analyze the data, the researchers employ SFL approach by using mood analysis as a tool to analyze the data. The data were obtained from speech transcript of Greta Thunberg. The data also triangulated by interviewing English Education Department student and a postgraduate student who has conducted similar research. The researcher found two kinds of mood in the speech, they are; declarative (89.47%) and exclamative (10.52%). Based on the percentage of the mood found in the speech, Thunberg try to give any information about what world leaders responsibilities for climate changing to the audience by using declarative mood and also, she delivered her emotion and strong feeling through exclamative mood. The implication of this study hopefully can provide method and information about how to conduct research related to interpersonal meaning analysis.

Ce travail montre comment les représentations sociales à propos de l’autisme se répandent et gagnent peu à peu de nombreuses strates dans la société. Il s’agit ici de considérer l’influence de l’écologie sur des aspects de la politique internationale portée par la voix d’une lycéenne suédoise auto-proclamée autiste, suivant des mécanismes complexes intra ou extra familiaux faisant penser à des phénomènes d’écriture automatique, tels que nous les avons connus par le passé. Opposée à toute manœuvre favorisant le réchauffement climatique, elle intervient dans différentes instances politiques. C’est un super pouvoir dû à son autisme qui la motive.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to examine Internet trends data and sentiment in tweets mentioning autism, Asperger syndrome, and Greta Thunberg during 2019. We used mixed methods in analyzing sentiment and attitudes in viral tweets and collected 1074 viral tweets on autism that were published in 2019 (tweets that got more than 100 likes). The sample from Twitter was compared with search patterns on Google. In 2019, Asperger syndrome was closely connected to Greta Thunberg, as of the tweets specifically mentioning Asperger (from the total sample of viral tweets mentioning autism), 83% also mentioned Thunberg. In the sample of tweets about Thunberg, the positive sentiment expressed that Greta Thunberg was a role model, whereas the tweets that expressed the most negativity used her diagnosis against her and could be considered as cyberbullying. The Google Trends data also showed that Thunberg was closely connected to search patterns on Asperger syndrome in 2019. The study showed that being open about health information while being an active participant in controversial debates might be used against you but also help break stigmas and stereotypes.

Abstract:
Young climate activist Greta Thunberg was Time magazine’s Person of the Year for 2019. In this study, the authors examine the role of social media in Thunberg’s rise to prominence by investigating Twitter communications over 14 months, analyzing tweet contents and user profiles. The changes in sentiment revealed on Twitter are examined, along with four major events from the period. The paper also compares Swedish and American user characteristics in relation to Thunberg. The findings reveal that celebrities and public figures played an essential role in amplifying the influence of the activist. To categorize the influencer group, the authors identified each user’s occupation, organization, location and position on other social issues. The results show that some people held a negative attitude toward Thunberg, not only because of their skepticism about climate change but also because of their views on other social issues, such as gender and age.

Abstract:
Greta Thunberg delivered a speech entitled “You’re Acting Like Spoiled, Irresponsible Children” to influential figures in Europe through the “Civil Society for renaissance” event, in which she was personally invited by the president of the organizer, Luca Jahier. Through her speech, she managed to convince the European Union to pledge to spend billions of euros to combat the climate crisis. This study aims to discover how interpersonal metafunction is used in the speech and what functions are revealed through Fairclough’s Critical Discourse Analysis and Hallidayan Systemic Functional Grammar. The data, consisting of seventy-one independent clauses, were taken from Thunberg’s book which consists of her speech transcription, titled “No One Is Too Small to Make a Difference”. The research discovers that through the use of mood, modality, and pronouns, Thunberg conveys her view on her relationship with the audience as victim and perpetrator, and the one who holds responsibility and takes the blame.

Abstract:
The contribution analyzes accusations related to Greta Thunberg’s speech in the UN on September 2019, posted on public Facebook pages in Denmark, Norway and Sweden. The accusations we analyze are of three types: 1. Accusations that amplify and mirror Thunberg’s accusations, 2. Accusations against Thunberg, her followers, and supporters, and 3. Accu­sations against people who are bullying Thunberg and her ­followers on­line. None of the accusations is the first move in an apologetic discourse. We argue that the rhetorical functions of accusations that are not met with an apology have two important characteristics: 1. they attribute responsibility to the ­accused by expressing a reactive attitude towards his or her action, 2. they express a judgement that the action is blameworthy. We use these perspectives to analyze the accusations related to Thunberg’s speech on the public Facebook pages and characterize the rhetorical functions of the three types of ­accusations

Studien fick en förståelse över hur Greta Thunberg har blivit representerad i de utvalda svenska nyhetstidningarna (Dagens Nyheter & Aftonbladet), vilka karaktärsdrag som tillskrivits henne och vilka värderingar som använts om henne. Frågeställningarna har varit; Hur ser representationen av Greta Thunberg ut i svenska nyhetstidningar? Vilka värderingar finns det i texten? Vilka karaktärsdrag används om Greta Thunberg? Texterna har analyserats genom representationsteorin av Stuart Hall och gestaltningfunktioner av Vladimir Propp och metoden som användes var en kvalitativ innehållsanalys. Studien fann att Greta Thunberg har blivit representerad både på ett positivt och negativt sätt, hon stereotypiseras och tillskrivs en hel del karaktärsdrag genom värderingar utöver de tre som studien har valt att fokusera på.

Abstract:
The aim of this bachelor thesis was to examine how the Swedish- and American daily press portrayed the young activist Greta Thunberg in their news coverage between the period of August 2019 and October 2019. Our research questions purposely intend to define how Greta Thunberg gets depicted, and to which extent the daily press insinuate her to be the face the climate movement through personation. By defining these aspects, we can therefor highlight and compare any similarities and differences presented. In order to fulfill the purpose of the study, we used a framing analysis to a selection of 66 news articles in total. These were divided by two different newspapers from each country; 21 articles from Dagens Nyheter, 24 articles from Svenska Dagbladet, 11 articles from The New York Times and 10 articles from The Washington Post. Each article was coded and categorized using a coding scheme until no more patterns or themes could be detected. Our study shows that both the Swedish- and the American daily press portrayed Greta Thunberg as a leading figure and the face of the new global climate movement. Both countries also portrayed those in power as the main cause of the problem and Thunberg and her advocacy as the resolution.

Author: Raffael Antonio Title: The politics are a joke - a qualitative interview analysis about the view of media consuments on memes and Greta Thunberg.   The purpose of this study is to look closely at the media consumers and their views on political memes and how other consumers and producers on social media are producing Greta Thunberg as a political figure by the help of memes.    The analysis has been done by qualitative semi-structured interviews with people as regular social media consumers. This was made by an interview guide with semi-structured questions about political memes, politics on social media and how Greta Thunberg is produced by meme creators according to the consumers.    The results have shown that there are two groups when it comes to Greta Thunberg on social media; the ones who are disliking her and the ones who stand up for her. These groups are based on opinions, political views and different generations which are also seen among the meme creators and what type of memes they made. Those who are disliking Thunberg, do it for different main reasons, such as age, origin of family and political beliefs.    Memes also matter in this study because of its format in picture and text, which give consumers an idea of the meme creator and its beliefs. Results also show that the behaviour of memes reflect society on different levels, political beliefs as an primary example.

Detta gjordes av en intervjuguide med semistrukturerade frågor om politiska memes, politik på sociala medier och hur Greta Thunberg produceras av memeskapare enligt konsumenterna.   Resultaten har visat att det finns två grupper när det gäller Greta Thunberg om sociala media; de som ogillar henne och de som står upp för henne. Dessa grupper är baserade om åsikter, politiska åsikter och olika generationer som också ses bland memen skapare och vilken typ av memes de gjorde. De som ogillar Thunberg, gör det för olika huvudskäl, till exempel ålder, familjens ursprung och politiska övertygelser.   Memes spelar också roll i denna studie på grund av dess format i bild och text, som ger konsumenterna en idé om meme-skaparen och dess övertygelser. Resultaten visar också att mönstren som visas i memes, återspeglar samhället på olika nivåer, politiska övertygelser som ett primärt exempel.

Abstract:
Genom att studera Greta Thunbergs resa från riksdagshuset i Stockholm till FN:s generalförsamling i New York fyller denna uppsats två syften. Dels att studera vilka intersektioner som bidrar till Thunbergs inledande ethos, hur ethos sedan förändras över tid och vilka retoriska strategier som skapar förändringen. Dels att föra samman två ämnen och teorier, genusvetenskapens intersektionalitet och retorikens ethos, vilket hittills varit en relativt outforskad kombination. Undersökningens ramverk och material är dokumentärfilmen Greta och utifrån denna genomförs analysen, vars resultat visar att Thunbergs ethos blir allt starkare ju längre tiden går. Med hjälp av retoriska strategier som exempelvis tystnad, omfattande förberedelser, hänvisning till auktoriteter och sociala medier tar sig Thunberg in på de mer ”traditionella” retoriska arenorna. Här förändras också hennes argumentation, som blir alltmer klassisk i retorisk agitatorisk mening. Slutsatserna visar att även om Thunberg i retorisk mening lyckas framställa sig själv och sitt ethos på ett trovärdigt sätt, är hon fortsatt bunden av större strukturer och de intersektioner som redan inledningsvis bidrog till att forma hennes förutsättningar och handelsutrymme.
By studying Greta Thunberg's journey from the parliament building in Stockholm to the UN General Assembly in New York, this essay has two purposes. Firstly, to study which intersections contribute to Thunberg's initial ethos, how her ethos changes over time, and which rhetorical strategies contribute to the change. Secondly, to combine two research areas and theories: the intersectionality of gender studies and the ethos of rhetoric. A relatively unexplored combination up to this point. The framework and material of the analysis is the documentary Greta and the main result show that Thunberg's ethos becomes stronger over the period studied. The rhetorical strategies identified are silence, extensive preparation, reference to authorities and social media, and these make it possible for Thunberg to enter more "traditional" rhetorical arenas. At this point, her argumentation changes and becomes more traditionally masculine, in a rhetorical sense. To conclude, although Thunberg may succeed rhetorically, in presenting herself and her ethos in a credible way, she is still bound by larger structures and the intersections that initially contributed to shaping her intersectional conditions.

The analysis has been executed through a qualitative content analysis and framing theory.The results of the study is that both news papers portays Greta Thunberg based on twothemes; age and functional limitation. When it comes to the social movements the newspapers portrays it based on two themes; age and incentives. The conclusion of this studyis that Greta Thunberg is portrayed through two perspectives based on the fact that she isa child. One perspective is that she is an independent child who refuses to go to schooland listen to other adult people. The second perspective involves a normative child whois ruled by their parents. The analysis results of the study also show that the #Fridaysforfuture movement is mainlyproduced on the basis that the movement consists of children and young people. Theparticipants of the movement are thus portrayed on the basis that they are children andyoung people.

Abstract:
A few weeks before the Swedish election in September 2018, a young girl named Greta Thunberg decidedto leave school every Friday and instead sit outside the Swedish parliament in Stockholm to raise awarenessabout the climate. This “school strike for climate” has since then developed to be a world-wide phenomenonand on the 15th of March more than 1.4 million youngsters participated in more than 100 countries.However, these actions have been subject of lots of debate in media; Greta being both cherished andcriticized. Framed within the questions about what motivates the political participation and in what way theschool takes a stand, this thesis aims to analyze “school strike for climate” in relation to the role of bothknowledge and fostering in the Swedish school. Through theories of street-level bureaucracy and politicalparticipation, accompanied by Carol Bacchis discourse perspective what´s the problem represented to be the studyexamines 32 Swedish newspaper articles. The result is a variety of problem representations, getting legitimized through law or moral, but also through a representation which hold both school and the pupils responsible for result in school. One of thedevelopments in the discourse is that during time and enlarging of the political activism, the youngster’sactions more and more is characterized as political participation than of an individual choice. This alsomeans that schools have to take a stand up on an organizational level, where many principals refer to schoolattendance and the law. When political activism is legislated through the curriculum it seems to be adidactical choice by the teachers, whom within their free space as professional street-level bureaucrats mayhave varying opportunities to use the theme within their teaching. Over all, the discourse focus more uponthe climate than democratic ideals, which suggests an unused potential of “school strike for climate” incivic´s education.

Abstract:
Humanity currently faces an existential crisis: anthropogenic climate change. In order to guarantee our survival on a stable planet, immediate mitigation and adaption strategies must be implemented. However, institutions are failing to live up to the task and a concrete action plan is currently non-existent, as climate governance struggles with fragmentation, commitment, and challenges posed by neoliberalism. Since the top-down approach is insufficient, extra-institutional actors are arising as leaders for the environmental agenda.  This study narrows down on Greta Thunberg and assesses her capacity in leading the climate movement. The applicability of frame theory (Benford and Snow, 2000) will be tested to understand the mobilisation potential of Greta’s discourse. The main focus of this examination is to analyse how Greta has used diagnostic, prognostic, and motivational collective action frames in order to place the limelight on the seriousness of climate change and correspondingly how this has led to civil society mobilisation. Through a discourse analysis of her speeches, it was discovered that the framing perspective plays a role in meaning construction for the movement.

The purpose of this study was to examine how Greta Thunberg, as a phenomenon, is portrayed in the news media Fox News as well as CNN and also how other actors are appearing in the news frames. The study was done by doing a qualitative content analysis in the form of a news framing analysis by focusing on frequent themes; frames by which she is portrayed. Furthermore I compared CNN with Fox News in relation to Greta Thunberg and how they portray her objectively. The examined articles were those of which they were published during the week when Greta Thunberg was named TIME’s ‘Person of the Year’. The frames, as a result, were that Greta Thunberg is framed as ‘A Hero’, ‘Someone to be questioned as Person of the Year’ and ‘A threat towards Donald Trump. The frequent actors apart from Greta Thunberg who appeared were Donald Trump as well as TIME’s Magazine. The results also found that Fox News and CNN takes different stands when it comes to Greta Thunberg.

Abstract:
Since Greta Thunberg started her environmental school strike in August 2018 she has become a world famous activist and has been portrayed in news media everywhere. The aim of this bachelor study has been to examine how Greta Thunberg has been portrayed in the Swedish news media through examining two daily press newspapers and two evening press newspapers. This resulted in analyzing articles in Aftonbladet, Expressen, Dagens Nyheter and Svenska Dagbladet. By using a qualitative and a quantitative content analysis we investigated three different events connected to Greta Thunberg through published articles. During 2018 the event that started her journey, which is the school strike, was selected as one of these happenings. During 2019 we chose her UN- speech in New York, and for the last event her speech at the World Economic Forum's Annual Meeting in Davos was chosen. By choosing these specific events we could build a perception of what the media's portrayal of Greta Thunberg has been like during these three years. Therefore this study also aimed to answer the following research questions: - How has Greta Thunberg been portrayed in the daily press and the evening press? - Has the portrayal of Greta Thunberg changed over time? In this study we used the Framing Theory and also the protest paradigms as guidelines and we also applied von Zabern & Tulloch (2020) and Bergmann & Ossewaardes (2020) different frames. This study then led to an identification of a new framing of Greta Thunberg which we named “Speaking without speaking”, mostly consisting of what politicians and celebrities are saying about Greta Thunberg in the press. We also found that by examining these specific events that Greta Thunberg has been portrayed in different ways. Therefore we could also conclude that the framings and portrayals of Greta Thunberg changed throughout time. This means that she went from being portrayed as a young girl skipping school for the climate, to a world famous environmental activist and finally becoming a trustworthy leader. Therefore our study shows that Greta Thunberg was being undermined due to her young age in the ibeginning, but as her status grew the media changed their portrayal of her into the role model that she has become today.

Abstract:
This concluding chapter assesses Russian media representations of a contemporary teenage crusader: the climate activist Greta Thunberg. The Swedish adolescent inspired vitriolic reactions among many Russian observers, who referred to her as a false prophet threatening to incite a wave of violence among her misguided young followers. Like the rest of the works discussed in this book, the heated Russian response to Thunberg suggests that the “romance with adolescence,” a belief in the extraordinary abilities of youth either to stabilize or to undermine society, has clearly survived into the twenty-first century in Russia. The figure of the adolescent occupies a prominent position as one of post-Soviet culture's most seductive “idealizing tableaux,” to return to cultural theorist Laura Berlant's formulation—a vital and enduring catalyst for a society's dreams, aspirations, and fears. Hence, adolescence as nightmare is the corollary of the “romance with adolescence,” rather than its opposite.
