Archives, Mismatches, Hacks! Overcoming Archival Boundaries in Transnational Research
In this article, I use my experiences in writing about the transnational history of Cursive to point toward ways forward for researchers interested in investigating entangled European broadcasting histories. I will point to places where I found European interconnections in journals, committees, and festivals and consider what the availability of these published and unpublished sources has meant for my inquiries. I will also explain how I used a s…
Digital methods in memory studies
This article makes a methodological contribution to the growing subfield of digital memory studies. It demonstrates a possible way forward for memory studies scholars who want to try out digital methods but also remain in conversation with the kinds of research traditionally produced within the field. The article revolves around a showcase of an analytical workflow for conducting a scalable reading of large quantities of tweets through access to …
Digital Archival Literacy for (All) Historians
For centuries, understanding archives has been key to historians’ work. Within the last decades, the increasing availability of sources in digital archives has fostered a growing need to understand how the logics of these influence historical research. Because, even if the digital representations of the individual sources might appear similar to those in analogue archives, using digital archives impacts the work of historians in new ways. In this…

Prix Jeunesse and the Negotiation of Citizenship in Children's Television
Processes of migration, European integration, globalization, and decolonization pose new challenges for citizenship education, i.e. the preparation for active participation in democratic communities. Ongoing debates about the meanings of belonging in a globalizing Europe are transforming citizenship from an exclusive node of identification with the nation-state into a multi-dimensional identification process with socio-spatial communities at the …
Laugh away, he is gay! Heteronormativity and children’s television in Denmark
This article examines the representation of sexuality on Danish public service children’s television. Previous research demonstrates that the worldview presented to children on television is extremely heteronormative, but no existing research has examined the issue in a Danish context. The analysis is conducted on two levels: a content analysis of 545 television programs, and interviews with stakeholders in Danish society on the issue “children a…
Negotiating 'non-profit
Our study focuses on Sesame Street and sets out to examine how Sesame Workshop, as a 'non-profit' organization targeting children, has been able to continuously transform and make itself relevant in a predominantly commercial children's television landscape dominated by transnational ownership structures. The analysis includes an investigation of Sesame Workshop's mission statements, organizational structure, annual fiscal reports, promotional ma…
Doing media history in a digital age
This article explores the challenges which digital media brings into the field of media history. It starts out by examining prominent television historians’ understanding of digital archives as revolutionizing media historiography. These claims are examined by holding them up against texts that discuss wider issues in historiographical practices related to television history and transnational comparisons. This investigation is paired with my own …
