”Bara framtiden kan visa om vi gör det här rätt”

Syftet med den har artikeln ar att studera hur manniskor skapar mening av den svenska coronastrategin samt hur de implementerar denna strategi i sina vardagsliv. Artikeln bygger pa en intervjustudie med atta personer boendes i Stockholm. Samtliga intervjuer genomfordes under pandemins initiala fas (april–maj 2020). Artikeln tar sin teoretiska utgangspunkt i ett risksociologiskt intresse for hur manniskor skapar mening kring osakerheter, har exemplifierat genom en vardag praglad av coronapandemin och den svenska strategin for att hantera denna. Resultaten visar att intervjupersonerna stodjer den svenska strategin och dess vetenskapliga grund samtidigt som de upplever en stor osakerhet infor hur strategin ska omsattas i vardagliga praktiker. Denna ambivalens kan forstas i relation till Becks risksamhalle och hans antaganden om manniskans paradoxala installning till vetenskap och riskexperter samt mot bakgrund av Tulloch och Luptons sociokulturella perspektiv pa vardag och risk.Alternate abstract:The purpose of this article is to study how people make sense of the "Swedish strategy" in dealing with the Covid-19 pandemic as well as how they implement this strategy in their everyday life. The article is based on an interview study with eight people living in Stockholm and the interviews were all performed during the initial phase of the pandemic (April–May 2020). Theoretically, this article takes its point of departure in a sociological interest for how people make sense of uncertainty, here exemplified by everyday life during the Covid-19 pandemic. The results show that the interviewees support the Swedish strategy and its scientific ground at the same time as they experience uncertainty in how this strategy should be transformed into everyday practices. This ambivalence can be understood in relation to Beck's "risk society" and his thesis about human's paradoxical approach to science and risk experts as well as in relation to Tulloch and Lupton's sociocultural perspective on risk and everyday life.
