Decoupling in the age of market-embedded morality : responsible gambling in a hybrid organization
No full textThis paper contributes to the understanding of hybrid organizations by refining the concept of decoupling as a strategic response to conflicting objectives and institutional expectations (Meyer and Rowan in Am J Soc 83:340–363, 1977). In today’s popular responsibility discourse one notes a hopeful “win–win” ideal that invites attempts, by companies in particular, to realize and balance conflicting values and to strive to fulfil both profit objectives and responsibility objectives. Although institutional theory has long acknowledged the strategic response of decoupling in organizational contexts, the potential of exploring and refining how this concept may be used to analyse strategic responses in the contemporary era of market-embedded morality has yet to be explored (Shamir in Econ Soc 37:1–19, 2008). There are good reasons to do so as the present-day discourse on the relation between the economy and morality offers a new set of options and challenges for legitimately responding to institutional demands. This paper draws on an explanatory, rich ethnographic and longitudinal case study of a Swedish fully state-owned company operating in the post 1990s gambling market. We suggest that contemporary hybrid organizations positioned at the crossroads of bureaucratic and market schemes of organizing, may find themselves in a particularly tight spot and seek legitimacy by decoupling—not only by adopting certain legitimizing structures, but also and increasingly with reference to market-embedded morality, a commoditizing of responsibility in their contested market setting. Based on the case findings, we suggest a distinction between organization-based decoupling and market-based decoupling and propose that market-based decoupling may be attractive to hybrid organizations owing to it being less sensitive to scrutiny and accountability claims. But at the same time, our findings indicate that market-based decoupling poses a risk to hybrid organizations, as it does not offer the same degree of legitimacy with key stakeholders/the general public as organization-based decoupling does
Social impact through 90 years of Hybrid Organizing : The case of the Swedish Federation for Sexual Education
No full textThrough a longitudinal mixed method case study, this paper’s general aim is to contribute to the organizational analysis of the intricate relations and mutual influence between manifold forms of organization involved in tackling grand societal challenges (Alexius and Furusten, 2020; Brès et al 2018; George et al, 2016; Gray and Purdy, 2018; Gümüsay et al, 2022; Kaufmann and Danner-Schröder, 2022). As noted in the call for abstracts, many previous studies have highlighted confusion, contradiction and conflict in organizations with heterogeneous expectations. And among the fewer, more positive studies, a great number are conceptual rather than empirical (Segnestam Larsson and Wollter, 2020). That is to say that in these studies, hybrid or other alternative organizational forms, are treated as promising a priori (Greenwood and Freeman, 2017).These insights may make one wonder whether there is solid empirical evidence to suggest that alternative forms of organizing are capable of tackling grand societal challenges. In this paper, drawing on an historical case study, I claim that the Swedish Federation for Sexual Education (RFSU) has potential to qualify as an interesting success case in this regard. An old saying goes: “All good things come in threes”. It all started in the 1930s. Internationally renowned journalist and social activist in sexual education and parental planning, Elise Ottesen Jensen, founded the Swedish Federation for Sexual Education (RFSU) in 1933. Missions like free and legal abortion, an acceptance of homosexuality and sexual education and access to contraceptives for all teenagers, were among those that motivated Ottesen Jensen to set up RFSU (Lennerhed, 2002).Ottesen Jensen realized early on that her mission to extend sexual and reproductive rights in society could not be achieved solely on public funding, since the political ideas she and her co-founders (medical doctors and representatives from the workers’ movement) wanted to push were radical. There was a need for own “free cash” able to finance political sexual rights advocacy that in 1930s Sweden was seen as provocative to many.From the start, Ottosen Jensen therefore had the idea of an organization made up of three different organizational “bodies” – a nonprofit parent organization for political advocacy and education, a clinic for therapy and treatment and a fully owned limited enterprise (RFSU Limited), producing and selling a product that was closely in line with the core political mission of sexual education and rights: condoms. Although each of the three had their particular institutional conditions, they also shared the same mission and were able to cooperate on their respective fronts, using different means (Lennerhed, 2002; Alexius and Segnestam Larsson, 2019).Theoretically then, RFSU may be defined as a constitutional hybrid: an organization that is hybrid by constitution, hence an organization that was established for the explicit purpose of integrating not only different institutional logics but also structural elements typically found in different societal spheres, to fulfill its mission (Alexius et al, 2017; Alexius and Furusten, 2019). Examples of constitutional hybrids include limited enterprises fully owned by the public, cooperatives, mutually owned enterprises and the category of organizations focused in this paper; limited enterprises fully owned by civil society organizations.The paper is a development of a recently published Swedish essay (Alexius, 2022) and describes how the “holy trinity“ of radical political mission, clinical care and own market income, has been at the heart of RFSU and vital to its success during its 90 years in operation for the sexual health and rights in Sweden and abroad. In terms of data, the case study draws on previous historical volumes on RFSU and their founder (Lennerhed, 2002; Lindahl, 2003; Thorgren, 2014), as well as own document studies and 12 interviews conducted 2015-2021 with previous and current RFSU leaders and staff.An important conclusion is that the common assumption in previous literature on hybrids, that power asymmetries will lead to mission-drift towards company-ization and marketization, should not be taken for granted. Rather, these processes must be scrutinized empirically using theoretical concepts like that of constitutional hybridity that opens up for recognition of the mutually strengthening mechanisms that have enabled RFSU to tackle grand societal challenges by achieving important social and sexual reforms.ReferencesAlexius, S.

REKAM JEJAK JURNALIS FOTO (Alexius dan Frans Mendur pada Masa Perjuangan Kemerdekaan Indonesia 1945-1949)
No full textSkripsi ini berjudul “Rekam Jejak Jurnalis Foto (Alexius dan Frans Mendur pada masa Perjuangan Kemerdekaan Indonesia 1945-1949)”. Hal yang melatarbelakangi penelitian ini adalah ketertarikan peneliti terhadap dua tokoh jurnalis foto yaitu dua orang kakak beradik Alexius Impurung Mendur dan Frans Soemarto Mendur yang ikut berperan dalam perjuangan mencapai kemerdekaan sampai berjalannya revolusi kemerdekaan Indonesia. Masalah utama tersebut disusun ke dalam empat pertanyaan pokok penelitian, yaitu (1) Bagaimana perkembangan fotografi di Indonesia pada kurun waktu 1945-1949? (2) Mengapa Alexius dan Frans Mendur terdorong untuk menjadi jurnalis foto pada masa perjuangan kemerdekaan? (3) Bagaimana Alexius dan Frans Mendur mengabadikan banyak peristiwa selana masa perjuangan kemerdekaan? (4) Bagaimana dampak karya foto Alexius dan Frans Mendur dalam perjuangan kemerdekaan? Penelitian ini menggunakan metode historis dengan langkah-langkah pokok di antaranya heuristik, kritik, interpretasi, dan historiografi. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian yang diperoleh dari studi literatur revolusi kemerdekaan Indonesia tidak terlepas dari peran media massa dan para jurnalis sebagai tonggak informasi selama revolusi. Fotografi menjadi media yang berperan memberikan informasi melalui gambar atau visual. Peristiwa proklamasi kemerdekaan Indonesia menjadi momen krusial bagi bangsa Indonesia, Alexius dan Frans Mendur menjadi jurnalis foto terdepan yang hadir dan mendokumentasikan peristiwa tersebut. Peran Alexius dan Frans sangat besar dalam membantu mendokumentasikan peristiwa-peristiwa penting selama revolusi kemerdekaan Indonesia dari 1945 sampai sekitar tahun 1949, baik secara individu maupun melalui lembaga berita foto IPPHOS. Foto-foto karya Alexius dan Frans terbagi menjadi beberapa peristiwa, diantaranya peristiwa proklamasi dan pembentukaan pemerintahan Indonesia, revolusi fisik, perundingan dan diplomasi, serta potret masyarakat Indonesia. karya foto Alexius dan Frans menjadi sebuah warisan sejarah yang berharga bagi bangsa Indonesia. Identitas dan semangat nasionalisme dapat tergambarkan melalui foto-foto karya mereka berdua.

The research entittled “Rekam Jejak Jurnalis Foto (Alexius and Frans Mendur in Indonesian
Independence Warfare 1945-1949). The background of the research is the writer's interest of two
journalist figures; the brothers Alexius Impurung Mendur and Frans Soemarto Mendur. Alexius and
Frans were participated in the freedom struggle until the revolution of Indonesian independence was
proceed. The main problems were formulated into four research questions, which were (1) How was
the photography development since 1945 until 1949? (2) Why were Alexius and Frans Mendur
interested to be a journalist photographer in the warfare period? (3) How did Alexius and Frans Mendur
capture the important events in the warfare period? (4) How did the masterpieces of Alexius and Frans
Mendur influence the struggle to get the independence? The research uses historic method with the
several main steps which are heuristic, critic, interprets, and historiography. Based on the result of the
literature study, Indonesian Independence revolution cannot be separated from the mass media and the
journalist as the pillar of information during the revolution. Photography becomes a media which
contributes in giving the information through pictures or visual. The proclamation of the independence
of Indonesia became the crucial moment for Indonesian people, Alexius and Frans Mendur as photo
journalist came to capture the moment. The contribution of Alexius and Frans Mendur were so great in
capturing the important events during the revolution of the independence of Indonesia, individually or
through IPPHOS, since 1945 to 1949. The masterpieces of Alexius and Frans Mendur were divided
into some events, which were proclamation events and the formation of Indonesian Government,
physical revolution, negotiation and diplomatist, and Indonesian people portraits. The masterpieces of
Alexis and Frans Mendur became a priceless heritage for Indonesia. Identity and nationalist spirit can
be seen through their masterpieces.

Diffusive author(s), cohesive author: Analysis of S/N (1994)
No full textThis study indicates the ways in which various aspects of the author(s) are brought forth in Dumb type’s performance art, the S/N production. Previous research has suggested a non-hierarchical organization of Dumb type and the absence of a “privileged author” in Dumb type’s collaborative work, S/N. However, the results that I have investigated from member’s interviews on the creative process of S/N along with my analysis of the recorded images of S/N, indicate a different aspect of the author(s). First, S/N was created through, so to speak, the collective ideas of the members of Dumb type. Further, S/N has at least nine quotations from previous performances, installations, and printed writings, besides the work-in-progress technique. Explicating one of the “author functions” as given by Michel Foucault, each text has plural subjects of the author. However, it has been revealed from members’ interviews that Teiji Furuhashi had a decision-making role in selecting the members’ ideas within the performance. Since then, S/N has had plural subjects of creation; however, Furuhashi is one of the subjects of creation along with the “privileged author.” S/N has plural authors (diffusive authors) yet at the same time, it has a “privileged author,” Teiji Furuhashi (cohesive author)
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

Can Endogenous Monetary Policy Explain the Deviations from UIP
No full textThe co-movements of nominal exchange rates and short-term interest rates as the economy is hit by shocks is a potential source of ex post deviations from uncovered interest rate parity. This paper investigates whether an established model of endogenous monetary policy in an open economy is capable of explaning the exchange rate risk premium puzzle. Time series on interest differentials and exchange rate changes are generated from the Svensson (2000) model. Uncovered interest rate parity is tested on the simulated data and the b-coefficients are investigated. For most realistic choices of parameter values, the b-coefficients are positive but much smaller than the unity value expected from UIP. It is however also possible to obtain large, negative b-coefficients if the central bank is engaged in interest rate smoothing.Monetary policy; Uncovered interest parity; Exchange rate risk premium
