Comments on: The Debate on Structural Racism in Norway /structural-racism-in-norway/ All Things Norway, In English Mon, 11 Jul 2022 16:41:58 +0000 hourly 1 By: Robin Leikur /structural-racism-in-norway/#comment-1000805 Mon, 11 Jul 2022 16:41:58 +0000 /?p=62847#comment-1000805 This article can best be described as deeply generalistic and very wrong on so many accords. It is not even worth spending time on the details. But lets just focus on the conlcusion:

“Some young people with migrant family backgrounds who themselves were born and have grown up in Norway, for whom Norwegian is their main language, and also the language in which they communicate with their friends, still choose to describe themselves as “foreigners”

This is because of failed integration politics. And for the most part way to little structural radical culture control. It has absolutely nothing to do with racism, but has anything to do with a very open society who has very little cultural demands on their citizens. So like we see in many other European countries many of the exacts same origins choose to not participate in Norwegian culture, but keep demanding that Norway shall change for them! It is the same group of people from the exacts same nations. I am not gonna name who, cause i think everyone understands perfectly what I mean. Juat about any other nationalities integrate just fine.

Like Jason, I would like to have more debate about spesific problems that are real, measurable and something that we can improve upon!

Now follow up with a real world analysis which explores the race dialectic, which puts forward creative, social and political solutions perhaps affecting areas such as education, the work place, government, and so on. That entails coming off the fence and nailing intellectual colours to the mast. Such brusing controversy is where real debate lies. This article, other than as a trite starting point, didn’t do much. There’s so much sociological litter and pretentious fire cracker thinking written like this in the field already; let’s have less noise and more intelligent focus on the nitty gritty.
