No full textAn Organizational Discourse Study of Public Managers’ Struggles with Collaboration across the Daycare Area
Full text linkThis doctoral study explores problematics of managing and organizing collaborative
governance from an organizational discourse perspective. Collaborative governance
is a public management practice developing currently with the aim of engaging
stakeholders to address and co-create potential solutions to complex public problems,
such as policy and service innovation. This is seen as a potential shift between new
public management (NPM) and new public governance (NPG) discourses in the
governance literature. Pursuing collaborative governance in practice is not taken to be
an easy task, as it involves changes from hierarchical organizing towards
interorganizational collaboration in networks and partnerships. The literature
therefore discusses both the potentials and problems, and conceptualizes their issues
in organizational models of design and implementation issues, and new managerial
roles. These issues are approached as managerial challenges and unfolded in terms of
paradoxes, socially dynamic tensions and power relations – especially by one stream
of studies. They stress the need to understand challenges of collaborative governance
practice by approaching the emerging social interactions and power relations;
however, the theorization of communication and discursive aspects to do so is underdeveloped

En forskningsberetning om mangestemmige resultater fra laboratorier
Full text linkDenne rapport handler om forandringer i den kommunale styring
og organisering af dagtilbudsområdet – og om forskellige
aktørers arbejde med lokale forandringsprojekter forskellige steder
i dagtilbudsafdelingerne. Projektarbejdet, der her berettes
om, handler både om aktuelle udfordringer i aktørernes egne
arbejdssituationer og praksisser og om problemstillinger, der
går på tværs af de institutionelle og kommunale organiseringer
og styringsrelationer indenfor dagtilbud. Disse er fx nationale
standardiseringstiltag, faglige kvalitetsmålinger, samt strammere
økonomistyring overfor kvalitetsudvikling og -sikring
The communicative constitution of organizational continuity and change in, through and over time
Full text linkIn this chapter, we explore the relations between continuity and change, and more specifically the temporal underpinning of these relations, based on the assumption that they are communicatively constituted. To do so, we focus on the way continuity and change have been addressed within the interdisciplinary field of organizational discourse studies (ODS) and communicative constitution of organization (CCO) perspective. While these studies are varied, they share the premise that organizational phenomena–such as organizational continuity or change–emerge through discourse and communication. Figuring out how continuity or change take place, then, is a question of understanding everyday communicative practices across, for example, meetings, e-mails, policy and strategy documents, symbolic artefacts, etc
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Nye muligheder for samarbejde i styring og organisering af dagtilbud?:En forskningsberetning om mangestemmige resultater fra laboratorier
No full textVariations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
