We will also discuss how the prevailing power structures are maintained by how journalists write about the sexual assaults that occurred at the New Year's Night in Cologne. Our study, among other things, illustrates how a narrative on women's vulnerability is used as an argument for a tightening of refugee policy in Sweden and Germany. There are also clear trends that sustain the ethnical difference as main characteristic of the perpetrators are linked to an ethnic and cultural belonging as a group and not from individuals. (Less)
