Make peer review great (again?)
In this reply I comment on the editorial by Lubinski, Decker, and MacKenzie. I applaud the editors’ initiative to raise a discussion on peer-review, and point to the need for a new valuation of the taken-for-granted work and effort that reviewers generously avail for authors, journals and publishers. I also argue for the increasing need for real humans in peer-review, in a future where AI promises to deliver non-empathic readings, valuations and …
Shipping legitimacy and identity
In this article, the author describes how the creation of the Danish maritime museums in 1915 and 2013 – both generously funded by maritime foundations and actors – was perceived by the shipping industry as initiatives that would help market the industry in the eyes of the public. He argues more generally that national maritime museums constitute focal points for disseminating narratives that legitimate maritime activities and establish these act…
Museet for Søfart, Elsinore, Denmark
In October 2013, the new building for the Museet for Søfart (Maritime Museum of Denmark) opened its doors in an old dry dock on the harbor front in Elsinore. The relocated museum was situated just four hundred feet from its former home in Kronborg Castle, where it had existed for almost one hundred years. The building itself was an architectural feat. Designed by renowned architect Bjarke Ingels and carved into the concrete walls of the old dry d…
A bittersweet past
In this article, we call for increased focus on the historicity of corporate heritage brands, emphasizing that perceptions of the past in the present do change as time goes by. Building on the idea of corporate brand historicity, we introduce the notion of “Negative Heritage Brand Equity” to capture the historically contingent downside potentially associated with corporate heritage brands. We use the Danish consumer-cooperative COOP as an exempla…
Monetary organization and national identity
This article develops a detailed overview of literature on the relationship between monetary organization, understood as currencies and central banks, and issues of national identity and nationalism. It demonstrates how the literature on this subject for the past 20 years has developed into a distinct research field and the article sketches a set of different methodological approaches as well as geographical and thematical variations within the f…
Too Weird for Banknotes
In this article I argue that questions of banknote design are closely related to ideas of the national collective. Using the Danish banknote design competitions from 1947 to 2007 as an exemplary case I show how the Danish central bank, Nationalbanken, continuously sought to balance banknote iconography between different and evolving perceptions of the national community in an attempt to underpin the legitimacy and authority of Danish banknotes. I…
Banking on the Nation
Superstar technocrats
Imagine a senior Princeton academic writing books on financial history: he is balding, grey bearded, and in his early sixties. He lives in New Jersey with his wife, dines at home, then takes out th
Monetary romanticism
Recurring debates on the common European currency illustrate that monetary organisation and issues of national identity and community are closely interlinked. National sentiments and ideas about the nation continuously inform public attitudes towards currencies. This article addresses the interrelation between monetary organisation and nationalism. In the conflict between the Danish state and the Duchies of Schleswig-Holstein in the nineteenth ce…
The Danish euro
In this article, I analyse the political debate leading up to the Danish euro referendum in 2000. I show how the euro-positive government unintentionally reinforced the arguments of the euro-sceptics by framing the euro as something belonging to the nation-state. I argue that this paradoxical campaign strategy stems from the Danish conceptualisation of nation and state and from the close connection between national currencies and feelings of comm…
