These Nordic conferences have contributed greatly to the development of media and communication research in the Nordic countries. The 19th conference in the series was held in Karlstad, Sweden, 13th-15th August 2009. Host for the con- ference was the Association for Swedish Media and Communication Research (FSMK). About 265 scholars from Denmark (37), Finland (43), Iceland (2), Norway (53) and Sweden (114) gathered to discuss current research and findings. In addition, some participants came from further afield, from the Baltic States, Belgium, Germany, Great Britain, Israel, South Africa and the USA. The conference proceedings included plenary sessions with keynote speakers and thematic seminars in different working groups. In addition participants enjoyed a number of social gatherings and cultural events. The theme of the plenary ses- sions this year was Body, Soul and Society. This special issue of Nordicom Review contains all the lectures held in plenary sessions. As usual, the main business of the conference took place in the working group sessions. More than 175 research papers were presented in 12 working groups: Environment, Science and Risk Communication; Journalism Studies; Media and Communication History; Media, Culture and Society; Media, Globalization and Social Change; Media Literacy and Media Education; Media Organizations, Policy and Economy; Media, Technology and Aesthetics; Organization, Communication and Society; Political Communication; Theory, Philosophy and Ethics of Com- munication; and Theme Division: Body Soul and Society. Responsibility for arranging the conferences is divided into two parts. More com- prehensive questions, such as the theme, keynote speakers, working groups and fees are the responsibility of a Nordic Planning Committee, whose members are appointed by the national media and communication research associations and Nordicom. Members of the Committee that planned the conference were Lars Holmgaard Christensen, SMID (Denmark); Sinikka Torkola and Juha Koivisto, TOY (Finland); Þorbjörn Broddason (University of Iceland); Kristin Skare Orgeret and Audun Engelstad, NML (Norway); André Jansson, FSMK (Sweden); and Ulla Carlsson, Nordicom. 5 A Local Planning Committee at Karlstad University was responsible for the arrang- ements and details of the conference: André Jansson (Chair), Miyase Christensen, Lars Högberg, Helena Persson, Malin Svenningsson Elm and Jakob Svensson (conference general). The next Nordic Conference on Media and Communication Research is to be held in Akureyri, Iceland, 11-13 August 2011. Göteborg in May 2010 Ulla Carlsson Director Nordicom 6 Body, Soul and Society Rethinking Media and Communication Ontologies The 19th Nordic Conference on Media and Communication Research Miyase Christensen & André Jansson It is a common discernment that modern Western societies entail a problematic division between the conceptual realms of “body” and “soul”, and that the ideal of rational thinking and progress (the mind) has come to dominate both. It is also a commonplace argument that Western modernity – in its disciplination, individualization and commodification of body (and soul) – differs sharply from both traditional societies and Eastern philosophies. A brief look at the past few centuries of Western thinking, however, reveals obvious fields of tension within the various veins of Western social theory and their conceptions of modernity. Efforts towards understanding modernity were always accompanied by inqui- sitions into the forces of rationality and discipline, on the one hand, and enchantment and hedonism, on the other. Earlier social theorists conceived differently of the individual and society, and the social versus spiritual realms against the backdrop of modernity, produ- cing competing visions. Where Marx saw a capitalist society and grounds for revolution, Durkheim (following Comte) saw an industrial society and the need for evolution, and Weber a paradox of rationalism that deeply marked modernity, which ultimately produ- ced a disenchanted culture. Questions of body and soul, in all their articulations, have been crucial to both social scientific and humanistic analysis, and continue to be integral to numerous current debates – not least in media and communication studies – and to normative visions of what constitutes the “good life” and “good society”. Ontological understandings of Body, Soul, Society and related concepts are also linked, and increasingly more directly, to the status of media and communication in society. Parallel to this, as media and communication studies evolve in their increasing interdisciplinarity, a holistic approach to identifying and expanding upon the enduring and emerging patterns of such conceptual, theoretical formations becomes necessary. Various landmarks in the social scientific and humanistic roots of the field provide entry points for such deliberation: from functionalist sociology to the collapse of arts and aesthetics into critical theory, to the more autonomous accounts of the “cultural” and the “aesthetic” in post-structuralist analysis; from the Romantics’ sublime and the banal to “new media” aesthetics of remediated visuality; and, from the mind-centred conceptions of the triad of human agency-social life-modernity in Freudian and Lacanian theory to the body-oriented psychology of Reich, to postmodern, gender and queer theoretical accounts of the self and society in a state of ambivalence and dislocation. The development and appropriation of media technologies, ideologies, and cultural forms (re)produce and respond to these fundamental notions – as “conceptions of re- 7 ality”. In particular, political and moral debates regarding the “fears” and “wonders” of new media vis-à-vis lifestyle habits tend to highlight society’s basic (competing) assumptions concerning the material and mental/spiritual nature of human ontology. Added to these are the growing centrality of risk communication and environmental sustainability issues in media and communication studies, and the emphasis placed on effective communication methods for social change. The objective of the conference theme for NordMedia 2009 was to scrutinize the triadic interplay between Body, Soul and Society in terms of how they have been, and are currently, understood, implied and implemented in media and communication studies and to what ends. The approach was twofold, dealing, on the one hand, with how Body, Soul and Society have been applied as concepts of “reality”, and, on the other, with how they have (re)produced certain formations of knowledge. How do these concepts, in their broadest sense, produce certain ways of thinking in media and communication studies? How is the thinking around these categories bound up with (inter)disciplinary fields of power in terms of scholarly traditions and paradigms? A reflexive analysis of the different conceptions of these and a wide range of related notions throughout the history of media and communication studies would also offer an important key to our understanding of the development of certain fields and paradigms. While each concept attains a certain autonomous status, and may therefore be as- sociated with different kinds of scholarly work, the goal of the theme was above all to consider Body, Soul and Society as an ontological ensemble. Through the conceptual locus of Body, Soul and Society, the conference was geared towards ontological debates of broader concern than what might be achieved through “intra-disciplinary” concepts such as media, communication, audience, convergence, etc. This means

  • Maritime Trade and Merchant Shipping: the Shipping/Trade-Ratio from the 1870S Until Today
    INSTITUTT FOR SAMFUNNSØKONOMI DEPARTMENT OF ECONOMICS SAM 12 2016 ISSN: 0804-6824 June 2016 Discussion paper Maritime trade and merchant shipping: The shipping/trade-ratio from the 1870s until today BY Jari Ojala AND Stig Tenold This series consists of papers with limited circulation, intended to stimulate discussion. Maritime trade and merchant shipping: The shipping/trade-ratio from the 1870s until today Jari Ojala, University of Jyväskylä Stig Tenold, Norwegian School of Economics This paper discusses the development of countries’ market shares in world shipping over the last 150 years. The analysis is based upon a new and purpose-built indicator: the shipping/trade-ratio. This indicator presents the relationship between the merchant marine of a country and the country’s role in world trade. Analysis of the shipping/trade-ratio identifies two important developments. First, although the share of the world fleet registered in Europe has dropped significantly, Europe’s role in world shipping over the last fifty years has been more stable than is commonly perceived. Second, there appears to have been an increasing specialisation in the world shipping industry, both among and within continents. Internationally and within Europe, certain “super-transporters” have acquired large market shares, while most countries have relatively limited fleets. “The sea-shore has been the point of departure, to knowledge, as to commerce. The most advanced nations are always those who navigate the most.”1 Introduction Within naval history, the question of “maritime power” plays an important role. Countless books have been written and numerous careers have been forged trying to define, discuss and debate the question of what constitutes maritime power and who the maritime powers are and have been.2 Within merchant shipping history, the power question has seldom been explicitly discussed, though it has been an implicit element of national historical narratives.

  • Merchant Shipping and Freight Rates During World War I
    INSTITUTT FOR SAMFUNNSØKONOMI DEPARTMENT OF ECONOMICS SAM 07 2017 ISSN: 0804-6824 May 2017 Discussion paper Navigating through torpedo attacks and enemy raiders: Merchant shipping and freight rates during World War I BY Jan Tore Klovland This series consists of papers with limited circulation, intended to stimulate discussion Navigating through torpedo attacks and enemy raiders: Merchant shipping and freight rates during World War I ∗ Jan Tore Klovland Norwegian School of Economics [email protected] May 25, 2017 Abstract During World War I ocean freight rates rose to extraordinary levels. Using a new monthly dataset it is shown that freight rates can be well explained by economic activity, commodity prices, war risk and world tonnage in the period 1912 to 1916. In the first two years of the war part of the British merchant fleet was directly controlled by the Government but neutral shipping was basically free to operate as normal. In this period neutral shipping accounted for about one third of British imports. In the final two years of the war a much stricter regime of freight control was introduced that resulted in the withdrawal of a large proportion of neutral shipowners from British and Allied trade. Together with the mounting losses of tonnage due to the German submarine campaign this created an acute shortage of carrying capacity and reduced imports. It is argued that the policy of freight control may have rested on a misconception of the role of freight rates as a source of the high wartime inflation.

Salvanes This series consists of papers with limited circulation, intended to stimulate discussion. Education Research and Administrative Data Prepared for the Handbook of the Economics of Education, Volume 5 David Figlio, Northwestern University and NBER Krzysztof Karbownik, Northwestern University Kjell G. Salvanes, Norwegian School of Economics Abstract Thanks to extraordinary and exponential improvements in data storage and computing capacities, it is now possible to collect, manage, and analyze data in magnitudes and in manners that would have been inconceivable just a short time ago. As the world has developed this remarkable capacity to store and analyze data, so have the world’s governments developed large-scale, comprehensive data files on tax programs, workforce information, benefit programs, health, and education. While these data are collected for purely administrative purposes, they represent remarkable new opportunities for expanding our knowledge. This chapter describes some of the benefits and challenges associated with the use of administrative data in education research. We also offer specific case studies of data that have been developed in both the Nordic countries and the United States, and offer an (incomplete) inventory of data sets used by social scientists to study education questions on every inhabited continent on earth.

    ÅRSMELDING 2000 Havforskningsinstituttet - Informasjonen Jo Høyer - Tlf. 55 23 85 21 Monika von Minden - 55 23 85 16 Telefaks Informasjonen: 55 23 85 86 Redaktør: Jo Høyer Grafisk design og foto: John Ringstad Trykk: Scanner Grafisk Om Sars’ illustrasjoner Årsmelding 2000 presenterer Georg Ossian Sars’ originaltegninger av torskens utviklingsstadier. I 1863 fikk Georg Ossian Sars i oppdrag av Departementet for det indre å kartlegge torskens vandringer. I tillegg til dette utførte han et banebrytende arbeid som beskrev torskens utvikling fra eggløsning til moden skrei. Dette arbeidet består av sju plansjer som beskriver torskens befruktning, embryologi, larveutvikling, metamorfose og vekst frem til kjønnsmoden skrei. Plansjeverket er Sars sine originaltegninger som han selv har kopiert fra sine opprinnelige skisser utført i Lofoten i 1860-årene. Disse plansjene ble laget til en internasjonal fiskeriutstilling som ble avholdt i museumsbygningen på Nygårdshøyden sommeren 1865; året før museet ble innviet. I forbindelse med utstillingen var D.C. Danielsen formann ved avdeling for fiskeprodukter og skulle blant annet sørge for fremvisning av de viktigste fiskeslagene. I sakens anledning henvendte han seg til Sars og ba om å få tilsendt eksemplarer av de forskjellige utviklingsstadier fra egg, larver og yngel som Sars hadde oppdaget. Han ønsket kopier av Sars sine tegninger "da selve organismene er små og hvad der foregaar kan ikke let sees med blott øie"... Danielsen skriver til Sars tre år senere og forteller at Georg Ossian Sars plansjeverket ble en publikumssuksess. Ifølge Danielsen hadde Sars sin beretning om skreiens utvikling "gjort megen Lykke paa disse kanter, ikke alene hele Bryggen og Børsen har læst den med stor interesse og tildels lært den utenad, men ogsaa Byens smukke Kjøn har fundet stort Behag i den" skriver en henrykt Danielsen.

    “Nobody ever thanks you for saving them from the disease they didn’t know they were going to get.” —WILLIAM FOEGE Smallpox and COVID-19: One pandemic public health leader’s story translates to a new generation Virology Central Within weeks of news of the outbreak in China, the UW Medicine Virology Laboratory was readying itself to deal with the novel coronavirus. And then on Jan. 21, Washington state recorded the first known case in the U.S., and a month later, the first known death. On March 2, the lab—then at the U.S. center of the outbreak—received FDA approval to perform testing and started with about 100 swabbed samples. Over the next two weeks, as the demand ramped up exponentially, the lab raced to increase its capacity—and was soon running about 1,800 tests and finding about 150 infections a day. The staff worked long days, sometimes 18 to 24 hours per shift, to help community leaders and public health officials make sound decisions about how to deal with this health crisis. During the spring, the lab often ran more tests than any other in the country. Only a few laboratories na- tionwide have the people, tools and resources to do this essential work. Until a treatment or therapy is found, testing and containment are at the heart of our nation’s response to the pandemic.

Oktober 2010 ISBN: 978-82-7688-021-2 Forord I dagene 10. til 12. maj 2010 afholdt Nordisk Samarbejdsråd for Kriminologi sit 52. forskerseminar. Seminaret fandt sted på Klækken Hotel ved byen Hønefoss, der ligger i et skønt naturområde uden for Oslo, omgivet af et smukt have- og bakkelandskab. Nordisk natur havde gjort opmærksom på sig selv i ugerne op til seminaret, idet den islandske vulkan Eyjafjallajökull gik i udbrud. Askeskyen fra vulkanen påvirkede hele flytrafikken i Europa, men alle deltagerne nåede dog frem til seminaret i tide. På forskerseminaret i år var der to hovedtemaer: Grøn eller økologisk kriminologi og global kriminologi. Økologisk kriminologi henviser til de situationer, hvor ofret er naturen, klimaet og dyr, endog økosystemer som sådan. For ca. tyve år siden var miljøkriminalitet et tema på NSfKs forskerseminar i Danmark. Dengang var udgangspunktet strafferetligt og kriminalpolitisk. På dette års seminar var udgangspunktet af mere kriminologisk karakter. Det er NSfK‘s hensigt, at miljøkriminalitet og økologisk kriminologi skal være prioriterede emner i den nuværende rådsperiode. Global kriminologi er et nyt begreb, som omfatter mange ældre forskningsfelter, såsom transnational kriminalitet, menneskehandel, narko- tikasmugling, internationalt politisamarbejde og forbrydelser mod menneskerettigheder. Nu ser man på disse emner som en enhed med stadig voksende betydning i en mere globaliseret verden.
