Abstract

In January 2015, the City of Helsinki received a proposal for the construction of ‘a grand mosque’. In December 2017, the Urban Environment committee rejected the proposal. In the interim, the proposed mosque was the subject of intense public debate. A key point of dispute was whether the mosque would increase tensions between Sunni and Shia Muslims in Finland. This article explores the ways in which the mosque project became framed as a Sunni–Shia conflict. Special focus is put on a newspaper article published in the Helsingin Sanomat in July 2015 and the framing devices used therein.

将清真寺项目定性为逊尼派和什叶派的冲突

2015年1月，赫尔辛基市收到了一份建造“大清真寺”的提案。2017年12月，城市环境委员会否决了该提案。在此期间，拟建的清真寺引发了激烈的公众辩论。争论的一个关键点是，这座清真寺是否会加剧芬兰逊尼派和什叶派穆斯林之间的紧张关系。本文探讨了清真寺项目如何成为逊尼派-什叶派冲突的框架。特别关注2015年7月发表在《赫尔辛日报》(Helsingin Sanomat)上的一篇报纸文章以及其中使用的框架设备。
