Abstract

On 7 February 2019 the largest evening paper in the Nordic countries, Aftonbladet, published an article on the scholar Martin Kragh, head of the Russia and Eurasia Programme at the Swedish Institute of International Affairs In Stockholm and researcher at Uppsala University. Kragh, according to Aftonbladet, was allegedly working for "a covert state intelligence organization in Great Britain," and he should therefore be investigated "by Swedish media and the security police." The problem with Aftonbladets claims is that they are false, and that they with a high degree of confidence had their origin in a Russian influence operation against the British think tank Institute for Statecraft. Using quantitative and qualitative method, this article analyses the origins and diffusion of the campaign Internationally and in Sweden as an informational cascade. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Customarily speaking, concepts of vocational and career training have been organised differently in Great Britain and the Federal Republic of Germany. Since the nineteenth century, vocation has been the "organising principle" of apprenticeship and vocational training in Germany, alongside of social security and other social forms. In Britain, however, a standardised system of vocational education and training does not exist. This paper seeks to shed light on a variety of systems for apprenticeship, vocational training, and career services in British and West German employment offices, as well as their effects on unemployment after the late 1960s.

15. Approaches to Language in Cultural Studies [and] Probleme soziolinguistischer Theoriebildung am Biespiel von Dialekt und Einheitssprache = Problems of Approaching Sociolinguistic Theories by using Dialects and Standard Language as Examples. ROLIG-papir 10.

Author

Roskilde Univ. Center (Denmark)., Tolson, Andrew, and Ammon, Ulrich

Abstract

The first paper focuses on the study of British working class speech, and highlights research on the topic. It is suggested that a culture is identified through its organizing concept, and that it is necessary to determine how far culture is linguistic. The conclusion is drawn that it is not possible to make fundamental correlations between elements of language and society; language must be considered as a system with its own differential rules. Working class speech does not constitute a totality or express the spirit of the working class itself. It is necessary to consider how class identities are constructed, discursively, by the positioning of subjects within discursive practices. The second paper discusses some of the prerequisites for the construction of a sociolinguistic theory. The goal of such a theory would be a systematic, predictive explanation for the conditions that account for socially motivated differences in language. The establishment of terminology--one of the prerequisites for the theory--is illustrated in the definition of the relationship between "Dialect" and "Standard." Further subcomponents in sociolinguistic theory are proposed, along with the Dialect/Standard dichotomy, in terms of the requirements of the modern workplace. (JC)
