Resumé

Satire er i stigende grad med til at forme vores politiske bevidsthed. Men hvad sker der, når politiske emner bliver formuleret igennem satire? Formålet med denne artikel er at undersøge en af de mest udbredte udtryksformer inden for politisk satire, nemlig parodi, med henblik på at afdække parodiens bidrag til satire, samt at foretage en vurdering af parodiens kritiske potentiale. Jeg argumenterer for, at parodi kan forstås som en form for dekonstruktion, og at dens kritiske potentiale ligger i dens evne til at destabilisere politiske antagelser, der bliver taget for givet i vores samfund.
