Historisk læring som struktur for dialog om det fremtidige forhold mellem Danmark og Nordatlanten
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019)Danmark har været statsretsligt knyttet til Nordatlanten siden unionen med Norge i 1380. Den kontinentaleuropæiske småstat Danmarks forhold til Nordatlanten drives frem af eksterne chok fra stormagtsrelationer og nationalliberale uafhængighedsidéer, der peger mod stadigt større og fuld selvstændighed for Færøerne og Grønland. Denne udvikling fortsætter ubønhørligt i et internationalt system præget ... -

(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2023)Documentary-film scholar Stella Bruzzi highlights the increasingly reflexive approach of contemporary independent filmmakers.

(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-02-06)This study explores how local politicians act when they are torn between local voters’ views and their own views or the party line.

Vi har langt mindre kunnskap om sosiale medier i lokal politikk, hvordan det brukes og hva det betyr for rollen til kommunepolitikere og deres ... -
Hva mutter gjør er alltid viktig. Om å være kvinne og mann i en nordnorsk bygd i 1970-årene
(Book; Bok, 1986)Denne bog er resultatet af et møde med et nordnorsk bygdesamfund kaldet Veggefjord. Den tager udgangspunkt i hvad folk i bygden, «veggefjordinger», lærte mig om hvordan de ser på sig selv og deres omverden, om deres måder at vurdere på og om deres glæder og sorger. Jeg forsøger at bruge et enkelt socialantropologisk analyseværktøj til at tolke og organisere det jeg lærte, og de data jeg opfattede ... -

Improvisation and Planning: Engaging With Unforeseen Encounters in Urban Public Space
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-07)Despite the significant emphasis in Scandinavian cities on vital urban spaces and creative unfolding in urban development, there is a tendency towards designing for “finished” urban spaces with a pre-defined conclusion. The result is often standardised design and staged play, ignoring the diversity of lived experiences taking place in the here and now. How can urban spaces be generated to accommodate ... -
