Bliv Data Steward - en ny uddannelse
Data Stewardship og rollen som data steward er stadig under modning i Danmark og der er endnu ingen klar definition af rollen. En ny rapport identificerer imidlertid et bredt behov og en efterspørgsel på uddannelse og kvalifikationer inden for området data stewardship i Danmark, der går på tværs af den offentlige og private sektor
Foucault On Psychoanalysis: Missed Encounter or Gordian Knot?
Foucault’s remarks concerning psychoanalysis are ambivalent and even prima facie contra-dictory, at times lauding Freud and Lacan as anti-humanists, at others being severely criti-cal of their imbrication within psychiatric power. This has allowed a profusion of interpretations of his position, between so-called ‘Freudo-Foucauldians’ at one extreme and Foucauldians who condemn psychoanalysis as such at the other. In this article, I begin by surveying Foucault’s biographical and theoretical relationship to psychoanalysis and the sec-ondary scholarship on this relationship to date. I pay particular attention to the discussion of the relationship in feminist scholarship and queer theory, and that by psychoanalytic thinkers, as well as attending to the particular focus in the secondary literature on Fou-cault’s late work and his relationship to the figure of Jacques Lacan. I conclude that Fou-cault’s attitude to psychoanalysis varies with context, and that some of his criticisms of psychoanalysis in part reflect an ignorance of the variety of psychoanalytic thought, partic-ularly in its Lacanian form. I thus argue that Foucault sometimes tended to overestimate the extent of the incompatibility of his approach with psychoanalytic ones and that there is ultimately no serious incompatibility there. Rather, psychoanalysis represents a substantively different mode of inquiry to Foucault’s work, which is neither straightforwardly ex-clusive nor inclusive of psychoanalytic insights

Ledelse af digital transformation: Erfaringer fra et kommunalt digitaliseringsinitiativ
Mange offentlige digitaliseringsinitiativer slår fejl eller lever ikke op til forhåbningerne. Ofte bliver mangelfuld ledelse fremhævet som en årsag hertil. I lyset heraf, rapporterer denne artikel fra et kommunalt digitalt transformationsinitiativ, hvor forandringsledelsesindsatsen var massiv. Studiet er designet som et kvalitativt casestudie af indførelsen af en ny digital platform til sundhedspersonalet i Ældre- og Handicapforvaltningen i Aalborg Kommune som indebar omfattede organisatoriske forandringer. Vi fremhæver tre forandringsledelsespraksisser, som var væsentlige for ledelsen af den digitale transformation: (1) tilpasningsledelse, (2) tilslutningsledelse og (3) forventningsledelse. Artiklen udfolder de tre ledelsespraksisser og illustrerer hvordan ledelse af digital transformation udspiller sig som en pragmatisk kombinering af praksisserne. Vi peger også på, at forandringsledelse i digital transformation får en særlig dimension, hvor det løbende handler om at forme aktørernes teknologiforståelser
The Beginning of a Study of Biopower: Foucault’s 1978 Lectures at the Collège de France
While Foucault introduced the 1978 lecture course Security, Territory, Population as a study of biopower, the reception of the lectures has largely focused on other concepts, such as governmentality, security, liberalism, and counter-conduct. This paper situates the lecture course within the larger context of Foucault’s development of an analytics of power to explore in what sense Security, Territory, Population can be said to constitute a study of biopower. I argue that the 1978 course is best understood as a continuation-through-transformation of Foucault’s earlier work. It revisits familiar material to supplement Foucault’s microphysics of power, which he traced in institutions like prisons or asylums and with regard to its effects on the bodies of individuals, with a genealogy of practices of power that target the biological life of the population and give rise to the modern state
Anarcheology and the Emergence of the Alethurgic Subject in Foucault’s On the Government of the Living
On the Government of the Living plays a pivotal role in the evolution of Foucault’s thought because it constitutes a “laboratory” in which he forges the methodological and conceptual tools—such as the notions of anarcheology and alethurgy (or, better, what I call here the “alethurgic subject”)—necessary to carry on his study of governmentality independently from his History of Sexuality project. In this paper, I argue that Foucault’s projects of an anarcheology of the government of human beings through the manifestation of truth in the form of subjectivity and of a genealogy of the subject of desire, albeit essentially linked to one another, are conceptually autonomous. These projects are both part of a genealogy of the modern subject but should be treated independently insofar as it is the former, elaborated in On the Government of the Living, that provides us with the key to understanding Foucault’s interest in the care of the self and parrhesia as an integral part of his analyses of governmentality and the critical attitude from the late 1970s
