Resumen
This extended essay seeks to inquire how the construction of the anti-immigration discourse of the Sweden Democrats (SD) has encouraged changes in Sweden’s migration policy from 2010 to 2016. The paper interprets that the migration crisis that took place in Sweden between 2014 and 2015 dislocated the Swedish identity. The crisis generated an identity vacuum that was filled by an anti-immigration discourse that promises to protect the ‘Swedish identity’ from the ‘otherness’ by articulating negative representations of immigrants. The essay describes how the subjects interpellated by the SD’ s discourse changed their practices regarding the country’ s migration policy . This paper is a contribution to the study of political and social transformations from a constructivist and discursive perspective, as this allows to contemplate how language can affect the material world.
