Organisationsteori för mediemedarbetare
- 2014
-
Bok (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Journalistiskt arbete och redaktionellt ledarskap har genomgått stora förändringar under det senaste decenniet. Medieföretagen och deras medarbetare har ställts inför utmaningar i form av ny teknik, nya medieformer, ökad konkurrens om annonsörer och publik, föråldrade betalningsmodeller samt förändrade mönster i människors medieanvändning. För att hantera dessa omvälvande förändringar krävs att verksamheten anpassas efter de nya förutsättningarna och att det redaktionella utvecklingsarbetet präglas av hög kvalitet – en ekvation som fordrar både kompetenta medarbetare och professionella ledare. Organisationsteori för mediemedarbetare är en introduktion till organisationsteori med särskilt fokus på svenska medieorganisationer. Innehållet kretsar kring fyra olika områden: • hur medieorganisationers struktur ser ut och hur organisationens olika delar hänger samman • hur organisationskulturen tar sig uttryck och vad denna kultur har för betydelse för den redaktionella verksamheten • vilken funktion ledarskapet fyller för verksamheten och hur ledarskapsforskningen ser ut • hur medarbetarskap och gruppdynamik utvecklas på en arbetsplats. Boken är lämplig både för studerande på journalistutbildningar och medie- och kommunikationsvetenskapliga utbildningar och för yrkesverksamma journalister som vill öka sin kunskap om organisationsstruktur, kultur, ledarskap och medarbetarskap i redaktionella miljöer.

Shopping for Change: Commodifying Practices in Non-profit Fundraising Discourse
- 2014
-
Ingår i: ISTR Working Papers Series. ; IX
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Drawing on theories of marketized philanthropy and identity politics, this article strives to explore nonprofit fundraising as a discursive practice, connected to political, economic, and cultural processes of individualization and marketization. Fundraising texts from six Swedish aid organizations are analyzed, using critical discourse analysis, focusing on the representations of donors, and the act of giving. The research shows that fundraising messages are mainly configured around the act of donating as a form of transaction, where the donor buys a commodified version of the idea or efforts of the organization. Through the transaction of symbolical goods the organizations provide a form of participation that is quick and easy, a concrete way of ‘making change’. This suggests that the donation becomes a form of commodity activism which situates the donor in the position of customer, rather than citizen.

Family talk, peer talk, and young people’s civic orientation
- 2013
-
Ingår i: European Journal of Communication. - : Sage Publications. - 0267-3231 .- 1460-3705. ; 28:3, s. 294-308
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This study focuses on interpersonal communication in the family and among peers in order to empirically examine the general idea that everyday civic talk might develop young people’s civic orientation. Two questions are addressed: (1) What is the significance of civic talk in relation to key dimensions of young people’s civic orientation? (2) What does civic talk in peer settings specifically contribute to young people’s civic orientation? The study is based on survey data from high school students and their parents (N = 1148). The findings offer clear support to the idea that civic talk in everyday contexts matters for young people’s development of political knowledge, democratic values and different forms of civic practices. Civic talk in peer settings contributes uniquely to all dimensions of youths’ civic orientation. Implications of the findings for political socialization research and theories of the democratic mechanisms of civic talk are discussed.

Social Media Supporting Democratic Dialogue
- 2013
-
Ingår i: Ambiguous Technologies. - Lisbon : Autónoma University. ; , s. 36-43
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- The term of “social media” appears in newspapers and magazines everyday and the huge number of people use social media actively in daily life. Nowadays, in the highly Information and Communication Technology (ICT) developed country Japan, Japanese people enroll in social media and evolve a new way of communicating with others based on the “virtual” social distance between them. Among social media, Twitter has been focusing on its strong power as the tool for political change recent years. While Twitter has of-expressed problems as well as the “traditional” social media, it is characterized by the limited number of characters, strong propagation and optional reciprocity. Those characteristics stimulate people’s communication online and bring about opportunities for social interaction and democratic dialogue. On the other hand, in the deluge of information, we need to nurture skills to utilize critical and rational way of thinking through dialogue not only between others also between themselves internally. This study explores characteristics of social media and differences between “traditional” social media and Twitter, and how the difference affects people’s information behavior in Japan.

From Vision to Transition : Exploring the Potential for Public Information Services to Facilitate Sustainable Urban Transport
- 2014
-
Licentiatavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Background: Policy initiatives to promote sustainable travel through the use of Internet based public information systems have increased during the last decade. Stockholm, in being one of the first cities in Europe to implement an Internet based service for facilitating sustainable travel is believed to be a good candidate for an analysis of key issues for developing sustainable travel planning services to the public.Aim: This thesis investigates the past development of two Stockholm based public information systems and their services in order to draw lessons on how to better provide for a public information service geared towards facilitating environmentally sustainable travel planning through information and communications technology. The overall goal of the thesis is to contribute to an understanding on how to better design and manage current and future attempts at facilitating sustainable travel planning services based on historical case studies.Approach: The thesis draws ideas from the concept of organizational responsiveness – an organization’s ability to listen, understand and respond to demands put to it by its internal and external stakeholders – in order to depict how well or not the two public information systems and their owners have adapted to established norms and values of their surroundings.Results: Overall, the findings from the historical case studies suggest that organizations attempting to provide sustainable travel planning to the public need to design and manage their systems in such a way that it responds to shifting demands on how to provide for information. Implementing and embedding new technologies involves complex processes of change both at the micro level – for users and practitioners of the service – and at the meso level for the involved public service organizations themselves. This condition requires a contextualist framework to analyze and understand organizational, contextual and cultural issues involved in the adoption of new technologies and procedures.Conclusions: The thesis concludes with a discussion on how the findings from the historical case studies may provide lessons for both current and future attempts at providing public information systems geared towards facilitating environmentally sustainable travel planning to the public. Historical examples and issues concerning collective intelligence and peer to peer based forms of designing, producing and supervising public information services identified throughout the study are looked upon and discussed in terms of their possible role in increasing the potential for public information services to facilitate sustainable urban transport.
