Overview
How can Swedish fika, perceptions of gender equality and the importance of being in nature be studied through ethnographic methods? In this course we introduce ethnographic research methods, such as interviews and observations to explore Swedish everyday life and customs. Through the lens of ethics and reflexivity we combine theory with practical assignments to discuss and explore how qualitative methods can be used to study Sweden from cultural perspectives. A cultural perspective includes in-depth knowledge about people's experiences, meaning-making and everyday practices. This may for example include why and how people engage in or abstain from certain activities, customs and celebrations defined and stated as "Swedish". As part of the course, the student will conduct a minor documentation of a Swedish phenomenon. The course is primarily directed towards international students living, working, or studying in Sweden. Exchange students can take the course in parallel with Swedish culture and everyday life (1ET055).
