	title        = {Analyzing Segregation Discourse in Sweden: Technological Methods and Empirical Data
},
	abstract     = {This paper outlines some of the empirical resources and language technology tools to be used in the project “Language(s) of segregation: Interdisciplinary perspectives on spatial, social, and symbolic division in cities.” The aim of this project is to examine the construction of segregation discourse in Sweden, its implementation as urban policy, and its impact and experience in everyday life. By integrating perspectives from linguistics, public administration, and urban ethnography, this study analyzes various forms of segregation — such as educational and residential — using large corpora to identify patterns and address related disparities. Key resources include political discourse, social media, and press coverage, while language technology tools like word vectors, network and sentiment analysis, and topic modeling will be employed. Preliminary findings provide early insights into the complex dynamics of segregation across different contexts.},
