Book chapter (peer-reviewed)abstract
- In entrepreneurship research, there is lack of in-depth and context-sensitive studies on mega-scale projects: ‘While urban entrepreneurialism and megaprojects have been discussed in academic literature for almost three decades, there are too few case studies which delve into the specific visions guiding these projects, the goals which they are meant to achieve and the positions which different actors play’ (Doucet, 2013: 2035). Given the magnitude of and competition between the existing mega-ship canal in Panama, the planned mega-ship canal project in Nicaragua and the planned port/railway/road/airport project in Mexico, the purpose of this study is to explore how ‘seriousness’ is contextually constructed in the communicative practices of these three cases. For this, I conducted a content analysis (Gioia et al., 2012) of the communicative practices followed for these three cases. The concept of ‘seriousness’ used in this chapter to analyze three cases of mega- and meso-scale entrepreneurship is theorized in scholarly literature on Greek tragedies and is focused on the use and function of the ‘prologue’: A prologue is an introduction to and framing of a story that provides details about the story’s background and its main characters. One crucial feature of a prologue is a quality that Segal (1992: 92-93) labels ‘seriousness and cosmicity’. He defines this quality by saying; ‘To win authority, the prologue must convince us of the seriousness of its contents.’ Furthermore, the prologue must demonstrate a connection between ‘the crisis of the moment and the remote beginnings of all things’ (Segal, 1992: 92-93, in Parsenios, 2010: 46). Applied to this study, the debates and discussions around the three planned canal projects are analyzed as prologues to the (eventual) actualization of the projects, where debaters and discussants try to win authority over the projects by trying to convince their audiences. They do so by emphasizing the seriousness of the project’s content as well as by anchoring the project in remote beginnings and trying to show how these are linked to contemporary tensions and even crises.

Book chapter (peer-reviewed)abstract
- A research overview of the state-of-the-art of the current knowledge on the societal and social usefulness of sport from sport management- and sport social sciences perspectives. My chapter focus on the specific and sometimes controversial domain of professional sport that generate very high media and live-arena experiential values, but also produces various societal misbehavior and high social costs. As the very high and multi-dimensional values generated by this type of sport produce significant meaning for its audience/consumers/fans, it is difficult to have one (the up-side; sense of belonging, pride, togetherness, community building - imagine the city of Liverpool without Liverpool F.C...) without the other (the down-side; all the well-known social costs and societal misbehaviours that this kind of sport regularly also generates). The report was commissioned by The Swedish Sport Federation, performed by leading Swedish scholars in this field and reported to the Annual National Assembly 2017 that is the highest decision body for all associations belonging to The Swedish Sport Federation, representing about 3,2 million people being individual member within some branch of Swedish sport.

- This paper presents an exploratory case study about the adoption of agent banking to involved financial stakeholders in Rwanda. The study was conducted in the Bank of Kigali and with 26 interviews to agents and commercial banks, central bank, Access to Finance Rwanda and customers. We conclude that agent banking has been playing an instrumental role in increasing and improving provision of bank services to people from remote areas who initially were unable to access bank services using bank branches.
