Changing the Ties That Bind? The Emerging Roles and Identities of General Practitioners and Managers in the New Clinical Commissioning Groups in the English NHS
No full textThe English National Health Service (NHS) is undergoing significant reorganization following the 2012 Health and Social Care Act. Key to these changes is the shift of responsibility for commissioning services from Primary Care Trusts (PCTs) to general practitioners (GPs) working together in Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs). This article is based on an empirical study that examined the development of emerging CCGs in eight case studies across England between September 2011 and June 2012. The findings are based on interviews with GPs and managers, observations of meetings, and reading of related documents. Scott’s notion that institutions are constituted by three pillars—the regulative, normative, and cognitive–cultural—is explored here. This approach helps to understand the changing roles and identities of doctors and managers implicated by the present reforms. This article notes the far reaching changes in the regulative pillar and questions how these changes will affect the normative and cultural–cognitive pillars

Curating conclusions in ‘Among Us’: Collaborative Twitter fiction and the implied author
No full textThis article uses the author’s experiences of preparing and curating ‘Among Us’, a 24-hour collaborative Twitter fiction, to examine the role of creators and contributors in producing a consistent narrative with a coherent thematic focus. It draws upon the concept of the ‘implied author’ as it applies to blog fiction and other forms of networked digital storytelling. It outlines the processes that brought participants together, and explores the ways in which they sought out ideological suggestions in the curator’s prompts, predicting, supporting, resisting or commandeering these in their contributions in order to ultimately collaborate on the conclusions and act as a single, recognizable ‘implied author’
