Abstrakti

The article studies the rhetoric of extreme right in local political context, focusing on the nudephoto- episode that took place in Turku in 2001. Firstly, it is argued that the ”anti-pornography” -initiative presented by councillor Mäenpää involved sexism, since it included showing in public private photos of a female politician. Secondly, because of the foreign origin of the woman, the initiative was suspected of racism. Racism constituted the political background of the ”antipornography” -initiative, but was not explicit part of the initiative. The article explores the logics of racism, sexism, and nationalism, and discusses the methods that worked in the case. The underlying aim of the article is to consider the conditions of foreigners and women in society.
