- The deracialization of Sweden is a research anthology that examines issues of race, racism, anti-racism and whiteness in a Swedish post-war and contemporary context. The anthology consists of 13 studies written by authors from different fields that collectively explore how the concept of race was gradually dismantled and eventually became taboo in Sweden after 1945, and how a specifically Swedish form of anti-racism instead became normative. The anthology's contributions can be seen as case studies, focusing on key persons, public debates, figures of thought, institutions, migration and marketing, based on material from archives, the daily press, interviews, social media and more. Through this empirical and methodological breadth, the anthology as a whole cross-sections Sweden’s evolution from being a race science pioneer to becoming the world's most distinctly “colorblind” country. The book is edited by Tobias Hübinette and Peter Wikström, with contributions written by Martin Ericsson, Johan Samuelsson, Ludwig Schmitz, Emma Severinsson, Mattias Tydén, Mats Wickström, David Assadkhan, Karin Idevall Hagren, Catrin Lundström, Sayaka Osanami Törngren and Jeff Werner.

- While the collection and analysis of equality data including racial identification is common in many parts of the world, prevailing norms of colourblindness and antiracialism prevent such practises in Sweden. This chapter presents a case study of the outrage and indignation that met a Green Party member of parliament (MP) who, in February 2019, proposed that Sweden should collect equality data comprising racial identification. We analyse a comprehensive corpus of opinion and editorial texts, as well as a sample of Twitter posts representative of the colourblind outrage directed at the Green Party MP, as well as at leftists, antiracists, identity politics and associated actors and movements. Our analysis reveals a range of argumentative strategies through which a colourblind, antiracialist status quo is preserved. Colourblind arguments are recruited by both a professional and a lay commentariat, positioning antiracist activists and politicians as a race-obsessed, authoritarian and divorced-from-reality threat to democracy, freedom and social order. In this way, a kind of liberal–conservative alliance is mobilised to resist and deny any substantial effort to engage with the realities of segregation and prejudice, reinforcing colourblindness as the only morally acceptable antiracist stance, in today’s Sweden.

Bringing Beyond into the L2 Classroom : On Video Ethnography and the 'Wild' In-class Use of Smartphones

- Just as everyday social life increasingly plays out in, around, and surrounded by digital and online technologies, so too does language learning. Learning in the digital wilds has emerged as an important area of study in its own right, yet at the same time, the increasing ubiquity of connected personal mobile devices means that learners bring the wilds with them into the classroom, offering potential for rewilding language learning in the classroom. In this chapter, we review, discuss, and recommend an approach to studying this topic in a participant-centered way, empirically grounded in video ethnography and ethnomethodological Conversation Analysis. Through classroom video recording and screen recording of learners’ personal mobile devices, a wide range of language learning-relevant activities may be observed that permit researchers to explore the contingent and complex ways in which connected devices open up windows to learners’ authentic interests, engagements, and relationships outside of the classroom in ways that enrich the classroom’s affordances for learning from an ecological perspective.
