Kig ha farz

Satt uppe till halv ett i natt och pulade med innehållsförteckningen, som vägrade uppföra sig som jag ville, och sen var det korrläsning men jag var för trött så det fick göras om igen nu på morgonen. Kvart över nio laddades uppsatshelvetet upp till Xerxes, universitets databas. När den har passerat besiktningen länkar jag till den här på bloggen. Tills vidare får ni njuta av mitt fabulösa abstract.

The prospect of Turkish accession to the EU has sparked controversy in many of the member countries. It has highlighted the different ways in which European as well as Turkish identity is being defined in the debate, with some politicians seemingly trying to draw on old prejudices in order to make the case against membership. By utilising discourse analysis as advocated by Thomas Diez, this thesis seeks to explore the debates regarding the Turkish accession bid in the British House of Commons. Its purpose is to analyse how ”EU” and ”Turkey”, understood as contested concepts, gets described in different ways. It continues by relating these descriptions to existing theories concerning the enlargement process, discussing the possible implications of the various discourses. Some of these, it is argued, might lead to counterproductive results unless articulated cautiously.
