Narrating hope among relatives to patients with disorders of consciousness
Relatives of patients with severe acquired brain injury (sABI) navigate complex emotional and medical landscapes as they balance the realities of prognosis with the desire for recovery. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork in Danish neurorehabilitation units, this study explores how relatives create and manage hope amid medical uncertainty. Inspired by Hirokazu Miyazaki’s concept of hope as a method, we analyze how hope functions as a relational and…
Neoliberally framed suffering in professionals and patients in palliative care settings – ’telling cases’ from an ethnographic multi-sited field study in Denmark
In western countries, palliative care is a part of the formal healthcare system, ruled by neoliberal, organisational ideas. This Danish study illuminates how nurses and patients with non-western immigrant backgrounds (inter)act in relation to encounters in palliative care settings. Two ‘telling’ cases were selected, based on interviews and participating observations from a multi-sited ethnographic field study in Denmark. The results showed differ…
Making It Count - Tracing Signs of Consciousness and Potentiality in Severe Brain Injury in Denmark
Healthcare professionals use various technologies to evaluate and support patients who have suffered severe brain injuries. They integrate monitoring and sensory assessments into their clinical practice, and these assessments can have an impact on treatment decisions and prognostication. Responses from patients during different interactions are interpreted as "signs of consciousness" when considered contextually relevant. This study is based on a…
The lived experience of remembering a ‘good’ interview
Micro-phenomenology is an interview and analysis method for investigating subjective experience. As a research tool, it provides detailed descriptions of brief moments of any type of subjective experience and offers techniques for systematically comparing them. In this article, we use an auto-ethnographic approach to present and explore the method. The reader is invited to observe a dialogue between two authors that illustrates and comments on th…
Teaching and Writing (as) Academic Activism
Employing subjective experiences in academia obviously questions central academic concepts such as objectivity and value-neutrality. The article challenges these taken for granted values by reflecting on the experience of producing and disseminating scientific knowledge with personal engagement. In a dialogical style, the article argues for the relevance of “academic activism” which draws on subjective experiences as incorporated in the process o…

Physical activity has increasingly gained attention within palliative care. This article aims to explore how the idea of physical activity influences patients with advanced cancer and health-care professionals' interactions. The empirical material was gathered as part of an anthropological field study about palliative care needs among 16 patients with advanced cancer, consisting of observations and interviews with patients, relatives, and profess…

Doing Wholeness, Producing Subjects
This article is concerned with the ways in which bodies and subjects are enacted and negotiated in the encounter between client and practitioner within specialized kinesiology - a specific complementary and alternative medical practice. In the article we trace the ideas of connections and disconnections, which are conceptualized and practised within kinesiology. We attempt to come to grips with these specific notions of relatedness through the in…
