Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- On the basis of a critical survey of university strategies, it is argued that universities reify and objectify “world class” and turn it into absolute and precisely defined goals (location in ranking hierarchies, publication patterns, number of start-ups and licens-es, etc.) and that this in turn is based on a skewed reading of the ascendancy of some universities (notably leading US higher education institutions) to that level. The notion of a “world class university” may therefore be self-defeating as it entails even closer monitoring, adaptation and adoption of indicators and steering that is outlined accordingly.

Mobilizing Vulnerability in Scandinavian Art and Culture
- 2020

Ingår i: Vulnerability in Scandinavian Art and Culture. - Cham : Palgrave Macmillan. - 9783030373825 - 9783030373818 - 9783030373849 ; , s. 1-15
-
Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- In this introductory chapter, the editors place the current volume within vulnerability scholarship—in particular, discussions by feminist thinkers who see vulnerability as more than a weakness. They address four aspects that may make vulnerability a problematic theoretical lens: the problem of ontology, the question of privilege, the unease with the state and the fact that the language of vulnerability is very much in motion. Given the Scandinavian focus of this volume, the welfare state and its position in relation to vulnerability is particularly addressed. Finally, the chapter provides an outline of the book while also making clear how the various topics have been presented in four different parts.

Gateway Visuals : Strategies of Climate Photographers in the Digital Age
- 2023
-
Ingår i: Visual Communication Quarterly. - : Taylor & Francis Group. - 1087-2523. ; 30:4, s. 221-233
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Visual climate change communication has seen increased scholarly attention in recent years, with a strong focus on science communication. However, less is known about the producers of climate imagery. The current article presents results from interviews with 20 photographers engaged in climate change on the challenges they see for climate photography today and the key strategies they use to achieve reach and impact in the digital media environment. Results indicate that practitioners gravitate toward variations of a “gateway strategy,” in which motives and forms of visual presentation are chosen as gateways to bypass the potential resistance or indifference to climate change messages. The article proposes a typology of such visual gateway strategies.

Journalism from above : Drones and the Media in Critical Perspective
- 2020
-
Ingår i: Media and Communication. - : Cogitatio. - 2183-2439. ; 8:3, s. 60-63
-
Tidskriftsartikel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- In the last decade, the development of small, remotely operated multicopters with cameras, so-called drones, has made aerial photography easily available. Consumers and institutions now use drones in a variety of ways, both for personal entertainment and professionally. The application of drones in media production and journalism is of particular interest, as it provides insight into the complex interplay between technology, the economic and legal constraints of the media market, professional cultures and audience preferences. The thematic issue Journalism from Above: Drones, the Media, and the Transformation of Journalistic Practice presents new research concerning the role of drones in journalism and media production. The issue brings together scholars representing a variety of approaches and perspectives. A broad selection of empirical cases from Finland, Spain, Sweden, the UK and the US form the basis of an exploration of the changing relations between the media, technology and society. The articles address topics such as: Adaption of drone technology in the newsrooms; audience preferences and reactions in a changing media landscape; the relation between journalists and public authorities who use drones; and attitudes from journalistic practitioners as well as historical and future perspectives.

Northern landscapes with a story : The affordances of the aerial view in environmental photography
- 2023
-
Ingår i: Disturbed ecologies. - Bielefeld : Transcript Verlag. - 9783837660265 ; , s. 143-167
-
Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In the context of an environmental crisis, photography and its related practices can be part of an emancipatory project, challenging techno-utopian solutions and envisioning alternative possibilities for sustaining life on this planet. This anthology critically addresses the geopolitics of environmental devastation from the perspective of photographers, artists, curators and theorists. The contributors engage with recent debates about the Anthropocene and the need to identify the socioeconomic and political causes of climate change. The essays question the validity of images within which ecological crisis is seen as the consequence of undifferentiated human activity.
