A Battle for the Post-War Mind
This article examines Scandinavian debates about brainwashing and human automatons in the 1950s and 1960s, situating them within the intersecting contexts of the Cold War, post-war welfare-state formation and rapid technological change. It argues that, whereas US understandings of brainwashing were largely framed in terms of the liberal subject's loss of freedom under totalitarianism, Swedish and Danish debates reworked the concept through the id…
Cold War conduct
Employing the Foucauldian term ‘conduct’, this article explores how social resilience and morale became a target of state intervention in Denmark during the Cold War. ‘Psychological defence’ was a Cold War phenomenon designed to bring an imagined future war into a space of control as well as a tool for the authorities’ exercise of power in case another world war became a reality. Advocating a methodological internationalism, the article analyses …

Entangled Media Histories
The transnational and transmedial dimensions of media and communication throughout history have not always been adequately recognised. In this research report we propose the concept of entanglement as a means of better understanding the dynamic interconnectedness of media across semiotic, technological, institutional and political boundaries in history. Entanglement is a concept that can be employed in order to problematize the presumed points of…

Det goda seminariet
The research text seminar is generally a cherished element in academic life. Ideally, this is the place for the exchange of high intellectual thoughts in an atmosphere of mutual respect. But the text seminar, if viewed from the perspective of its historical roots in German academia, is also an arena for collective, informal and apprenticeship learning that is today challenged by a much more individualistic, formal and bureaucratic model for third…
