Abstract

This work intends to study the representations of politics in two female characters, Birgitte and Claire, in Borgen and House of Cards, respectively. The adopted perspective takes concepts elaborated in political theory: adversative politics and deliberative politics and uses textual analysis to identify the type of representation, studying the characters and the narrative lines of public and private life. Birgitte and Claire embody contrasting conceptions of politics, while proposing models of politician women in tension with stereotypes.
