Understanding the arena of smoldering crises
Purpose The aim of this paper is to study the development of a smoldering crisis over time. The focus is on a nationwide news media and online news communication related to a smoldering crisis running in the Danish healthcare system since 2016: the problematic implementation of a large-scale electronic health record (EHR), technology entitled Sundhedsplatformen (SP), in the hospitals of the capital region of Denmark. Design/methodology/approach B…
Civil Servant Involvement in the Strategic Communication of Central Government Organizations
This article investigates the involvement of permanent civil servants in strategic communication in government organizations within the context of mediatized democracies. Based upon an argument that the involvement in strategic communication is to be seen as part and parcel of a functional politicization of the civil service, the article identifies a significant and positive relationship between media awareness and functional politicization acros…
Organizations, Stakeholders, and Intermediaries
The aim of this conceptual article is to contribute to the development of a general theory of intermediaries (e.g., trade associations, trade unions, advocacy groups, government agencies, consulting firms, and the media). The primary function or mission of intermediaries is to mediate the relationship between an organization and its stakeholders; that is, to represent either the organization and/or the stakeholders, and/or to intervene in their r…
A Comparative Study of Crisis Consultancies Between Singapore and Denmark

From Management Consulting to Strategic Communication

Institutionalizing Crisis Communication in the Public Sector
As a reaction to a series of complex and ongoing changes, a growing number of Danish municipalities have embarked on a comprehensive process of “communicative rearmament,” strengthening their organization with new chief communication officers and new communication departments. This article examines how far the municipalities have come in the institutionalization of crisis management and crisis communication, which are defined as an integrated par…

Öffentligkeit, offentlighed, espace public, public sphere. Historien om et begreb hos Jürgen Habermas
Denne oversigtsartikel fortæller om nogle europæiske medieforskeres tidsforskudte reception af Jürgen Habermas ́ begreb om den borgerlige offentlighed. Artiklen undersøger, hvordan man i Danmark, Frankrig og England har anvendt begrebet i forskningstraditionerne og hvilken betyd- ning man kan tillægge den tidslige forskydning, når man tager i betragt- ning, at der i 1980 ́erne er sket afgørende ændringer i medieaktørernes og -forskernes holdning …
Medieforskning i Frankrig - institutioner, indfaldsvinkler, forfatterskaber og tidsskrifter
Dansk Medieforsknings internationale orientering har siden 1970 ́erne været præget af skævheder. I den ideologikritiske periode hentede man "kritisk teori" og "offentlighedsteori" i vesttyske socialforskningsmiljøer. 1980 ́ernes interesse for modtagerperspektivet bevirkede at man i høj grad søgte inspiration i amerikanske traditioner som "uses and gratifi- cations" og medie-etnografi. Hvad angår andre landes medieforsknings- traditioner, så lider…
Avisens paratekst - et nyt område for medieforskningen
En paratekst er den "tærskel" som læseren må overskride, før han eller hun når ind til den "egentlige" tekst - det kan være titel, forord, dedikationer, indholdsfortegnelse el.lign. En paratekst står altså ved siden af den egentlige tekst og foregriber og indvirker på receptionen af den. Paratekster i aviser er et fænomen, som har grebet om sig siden den første redaktør satte den første overskrift på spalten. Især nutidens tabloidpresse rummer et…
Begæret, volden og offeret
The French critic and anthropologist René Girard is one of the most original and controversial thinkers of today. This article contains an introduction to his theory of the unanimous victimage as the generative mechanism of all religious and social institutions. The main element in this mechanism is the mimetic desire, i.e. a desire which depends on a mediator and whose dynamics is rooted in a dispute object. Every human society has originally kn…
