摘要

This research investigates Sweden’s dynamic Arabic cultural landscape to explore the production and development of cultural expressions by Arabic-speaking writers. The study employs theoretical frameworks from Postmigration and Social Networks to comprehensively examine the efficacy of Arabic-speaking social networks in facilitating writing and creativity in Sweden. Through surveys and semi-structured interviews, the research uncovers the intricate networks established by Arabic-speaking writers, transcending their countries of origin and the host country. These networks, spanning geographic connections, publishing, and professional associations, reflect a synthesis of values from the host society and the rich Arabic cultural heritage. The professionalization of the Swedish language creates avenues for writers to form new networks within Swedish society. This study lays the groundwork for future research on Arabic-speaking cultural production and contributes to the broader discourse on postmigration research, elucidating the intersections of art, literature, and cultural expressions in the context of migration. The findings underscore the vital role of social networks in shaping the creative landscape and promoting cultural diversity within postmigration communities.
