Abstract [en]

One of the manifestations of the struggle for suffrage through culture and discourse is how the movement was and is made visible in media.This paper is a study of Swedish local newspaper journalism on women’s suffrage from 1907 to 1921. The empirical base is the historical newspaper database Swedish Newspapers (“Svenska dagstidningar”) from the Royal Library in Sweden. This database is available for full access on designated local computers at some Universities.The method used is a database search for the word “suffragette” and the open access material consisting of small context visualizations of placing the text and the few text sentences. The results from the local newspapers are compared with the national newspapers. The simple bar charts made available as an automatically generated user interface are the base for comparison. Similarities and differences are discussed concerning quantity to time (how many articles and what year), concerning local-national newspapers of what newspapers, how many articles and what year, and finally, local-local newspapers of what newspapers how many pieces and what year. Some content analysis is made thematically on words visible as a context for the term suffragette. From this analysis, distinguished vital themes are the objectification of the suffragettes (such as beautiful, repulsive), courage (not very common), and the framing of suffragettes as doing atrocity and crime. A highlighted result is the meaning of local suffragettes. The newspapers covering the Swedish capital Stockholm become national news in the local newspapers. The internationally known suffragettes’ activities in London and New York became news in both the Swedish local and national newspapers. Some implications are discussed concerning the newspaper’s political-ideological domicile.In the concluding discussion of the paper, I contemplate the news logic (the news values) of crime and how that made women’s suffrage become news, primarily as something horrifying taking place internationally and in Stockholm.
