Nordicom Information 2006(2) Förord Den 17:e Nordiska Konferensen för Medie- och Kommunikationsforskning ägde rum i Aalborg, den 11-14 augusti 2005. Värd för konferensen var den danska forskarföreningen Sammenslutningen af Medieforskere i Danmark (SMID) och Institut for Kommunikation vid det Humanistiske Fakultet vid Aalborg Universitet. Drygt 320 forskare från Danmark (66), Finland (22), Island (2), Norge (77) och Sverige (65) samlades för att diskutera pågående forskning och forskningsresultat. I konferensen deltog även forskare från länder utanför Norden, t ex från de baltiska länderna, Tyskland, Österrike, Storbritannien, Etiopien, Kanada och USA. Konferensen innefattade möten i arbetsgrupper, plenarsessioner och en rad sociala och kulturella programpunkter. De nordiska konferenserna är av mycket stort värde för utvecklingen av medie- och kommunikationsforskningen i de enskilda nordiska länderna. Medier og global kultur Sprog og retorik i medierne Mediernes struktur og økonomi Mediernes konstruktion av køn Medialisering af religion og kultur Public relation/planlagt kommunikation Mediehistorie Medieret risiko-, krise- og Filmhistorie krigskommunikation Digital tekst: genre, form og proces TV: Institution, produktion og tekst Digital kultur: nye samværs- og Radio og andre lydmedier kommunikationsformer Politisk kommunikation Medier og etniske minoriteter Journalistikforskning Medie- og kommunikationsteori: forskning Nyhedsformidlingens sosiologi og æstetik og discipliner Mediebrug: perspektiv, metode og teori Intimideringskommunikation Børn, unge og medier Markedskommunikation og æstetik Mediepædagogik Medieudvikling Film- og TV-fiktion Computerspil Visuel kultur Interaktivt TV Konferensens arbetsgrupper är i detta avseende särskilt viktiga. Närmare 240 papers presenterades och diskuterades denna gång i 28 olika arbetsgrupper: Detta nummer av Nordicom-Information innehåller konferensens plenaranföranden samt redovisning av presenterade papers. I skriften ingår också en deltagarlista.På grundval av konferensen har ett antal papers omarbetats till artiklar för publicering på engelska i en särskild antologi utgiven av Nordicom (Nordicom Review 2/2004, special issue) i syfte att visa på den nordiska medieforskningens bredd och fördjupning. Ansvaret för genomförandet av de nordiska konferenserna är tvådelat. Övergripande frågor som konferenstema, talare i plenum, arbetsgrupper samt deltagaravgift behandlas av 5 en nordisk planeringskommitté, som inför konferensen i Aalborg bestod av Anne Jerslev, SMID (ordförande), Leif-Ove Larsen, NML; Thorbjörn Broddason, Islands universitet; Inka Salovaara-Moring, TOY; Mats Ekström, FSMK och Ulla Carlsson, Nordicom. Det är de nationella forskarföreningarna som utser representanterna i denna grupp. För arrangemang och genomförande av konferensen svarade en lokal planerings- kommitté bestående av Gunhild Agger (ordförande), Peter Allingham, Janne Bang, Christian Jantzen, Ole Prehn, Tove Arendt-Rasmussen, Henrik Sand och Jørgen Stigel från Universitetet i Aalborg. Henrik Sand fungerade som koordinator för konferensens alla delar. Nästa nordiska konferens äger rum i Finland 16-19 augusti 2007. Göteborg i maj 2006 Ulla Carlsson Nordicom 6 TITLE Challenges of the New Symbolic Order The 17th Nordic Conference on Media and Communication Research GUNHILD AGGER Good afternoon. On behalf of SMID, the Danish Association of Media Researchers, I’d like to welcome you all to Aalborg University. The occasion is pleasant. The conference of media researchers from the Nordic countries has become a meeting place we would have to invent, if we didn’t have it. Generally, media research in our countries is carried out on a high level. Media research as well as the societies and cultures it refers to have a lot in common. But it also implies a sufficient number of striking and eye opening dis- similarities. This is why comparison between the Nordic countries is always an inspiring undertaking. The list of participants displays a lot of veterans – and quite a few newcomers. Wel- come to both categories. Fortunately, it is not so simple, that the vets only serve the noble purpose of continuity and the newcomers the purpose of renewal. If I can rely on the clues in the abstracts, tradition and innovation are mixed among the participants and cross the generations. What a summer! Suicide bombers in London in July, reminding us of Madrid last year in March. Thanks to surveillance cameras, the bombers didn’t remain anonymous, but the first team remained dead – just as the team in Madrid killed themselves before they were arrested. An efficient way of stopping dialogue. Unwilling to state their aim, reluc- tant to claim any kind of responsibility for their actions, death becomes the only message. This message was repeated in Sharm-el-Sheik. And indeed in Musayyib, Iraq. Only, the last mentioned attack didn’t receive much attention in the media. What’s new? This sui- cide bombing resembled so many others in Iraq, only it was worse. Following the line from 9/11, action has replaced reasoning, violence has substituted arguments. Suddenly, we are forced to acknowledge that the days when hi-jacking and threats were accompanied by messages in words are over. Words are not met with appre- ciation by these groups. How very odd! However savage and inexcusable the actions of the Baader-Meinhof-group were during the 1970es, they were easier to understand than this language of sudden violence in the tube, a railway station, a holiday resort or a market place. The message, of course, is clear – even if it is not expressed in words: the war in Afghanistan or Iraq will spread to the rest of the world. Destruction, consequently, will be conducted anywhere. Don’t feel safe – ever! The new symbolic order of sudden death-bringing action is both cruel and real. In this situation, it is a challenge to keep up circumstantial, scientific analysis – of the news, of the images and representations of events, the rhetoric, the victims, of the crimi- nals and their possible motives, backgrounds and contexts. This challenge has been met 7 GUNHILD AGGER by participants of the conference, e.g. in research on ‘War and consequence’ (in con- nection with the war in Iraq), ‘the Politics of fear’, ‘Reporting the Crusade’ and the rep- resentation of ethnical otherness in the media. Does this mean that priority should be given to analysis of facts? Of course not. Short- ly, even the events of 9/11 will be represented on film. It will be split up in hundreds of dra- mas, and it will influence people’s perception of 9/11 and its context worldwide. Negotia- tions will be carried out, introducing various perspectives and alternative interpretations. Besides, everyday life continues as it always did, and so do all the genres connected to it – from Extreme Makeover to Changing Rooms, The Weakest Link and all sorts of drama and reality shows conveyed on television, discussed in everyday conversation and a major source of comments in the printed media. Such genres even seem to thrive. What does this express about the popular culture and the divides in our societies? Which limits between public and private life are still to be respected? The ethical ques- tions arising from all sorts of reality programmes are evident. Another recent object of research is the experience economy, a much hyped phenom- enon that may have positive effects on the economy of the humanities. To know more about the consequences, we direct our attention to this phenomenon. Obviously, this demands an interdisciplinary approach. This leads me to a few comments on the theoretical context of this conference and its connections to the last conference. According to Arild Fetweit, one of the key concepts behind the conference programme in Kristiansand two years ago aimed at ‘rectifying’ some of the ‘in-balances’ between scholars from the humanities and the sociologists. This ambition, one could argue, had already begun in Reykjavik. In the reflections on both media history and the media of the future, a combination of research traditions played a dominant part. The Kristiansand conference however, succeeded in drawing more attention to research areas essential to the humanities such as rhetorics in media studies, the globalisation of language, and the questions of digital aesthetics. This left the planning committee in Aalborg with a problem. Which challenges should we build into the conference programme? On one hand, we wanted to continue what had begun in Kristiansand. On the other hand, we would also like to contribute to the further development of common critical reflection. The result was the theme Media Research – Demarcations and Interfaces. We have often disagreed on the relevance of themes, theories and methods. We have even disagreed on the subject whether such a thing as media research existed, whether it contained a common kernel, or whether the concept of media research just should be understood as an umbrella! Instead of focusing on the disagreements, we invite you to discuss all the options inherent in the concepts of de- marcations and interfaces. The programme aims at highlighting some of these demarcations and interfaces, such as the role of information in contemporary society, questions of method in constructing the digital object, design as an approach to media research, the impact of sound and si- lence in the media, the new conditions of public service and TV entertainment – and the reality of media research. We have provided a frame. It is up to you to fill it in. You are the conference. 8 SOCIO-DIGITAL

Both started with an experimental internal phase but later used different models to organize their news production. By establishing a spin-off, separate from the printed newspaper, VG retreated from synergies between online and offline productions, but gained by having two organizations dedicated to the processes and values of each medium. Their online services are financed by advertisements alone. The commercially financed television channel, TV 2, used an acquisition model, but encountered problems with integrating the parts. Today, their strategy involves a proliferation of digital TV channels, financed by a combination of advertisements and payment from viewers. Not only their Internet site, but particularly their 24/7 news channel Nyhetskanalen is a central element in the production of continous news. Keywords: convergence, continuous news, disruptive change, management Introduction Market leaders often experience difficulties adjusting to what Christensen and Overdorf (2000) call ‘disruptive change’. Implementing innovative activity in an area that requires not only investments but also changes in competencies, organizational processes and values is often difficult to realize within established organizations.

  • What Will Be the Future for Local Broadcasting in Norway?1  Ilona Biernacka-Ligięza UNIVERSITY of OPOLE, POLAND UNIVERSITY of OSLO, NORWAY
    What will be the future for Local Broadcasting in Norway?1 Ilona Biernacka-Ligięza UNIVERSITY OF OPOLE, POLAND UNIVERSITY OF OSLO, NORWAY ABSTRACT: In the era of the market-driven media, the digital transition and the ‘new media’ reign we should consider what will be the future of local broadcasting. First of all, we should look at the broadcasting legislation process – especially changes connected with the rules and privileges given to the local and community broadcasters. Second point worth consideration is the case of the tradi- tional local TV and radio stations in Norway. A few questions should be asked, for example: if the local TV/radio fulfi ls the local medium function; which is the dominant function for the local broad- casters; what will be the future of local TV/radio station; if web TV/radio replace traditional ones; what is the local programmes content etc. Th ird point which should be analyzed is the role of local TV and radio in creating local identity and local democracy. We should look at the local communication level from the wide perspective: relation global–local; globalization–glocalization. KEYWORDS: local radio, local TV, new media, broadcasting, WEB TV, Internet, society, glocaliza- tion, globalization INTRODUCTION Local media perform a linking function for displaced audiences in a global land- scape. Consumption of ‘home-based press’ in a foreign context is mainly a ritualistic cultural practice in securing personal identity, familiar formulations of cultural spaces, and communities of origin. Scientifi c research revealed that national me- dia allowed society to (re)produce situated identity marks menaced by globaliza- tion.

    CULTURAL JOURNALISM CULTURAL In an era when culture itself has become central to political debates, when boundaries between hard news and soft news, facts and opinion are dissolving, cultural journalism contributes to democratic discourse on vital issues of our time. Cultural journalism is furthermore indicative of journalistic autonomy and specialisation within media organisations, and of the intertwined relationship between the cultural and political public spheres. Nordic cultural journalism in Countries in the Nordic the mainstream media covers more subjects today than ever before, from fine arts to gam- ing, media industries, and lifestyle issues. At the same time, it harbours debates and reflec- tion on freedom of expression, ethnicity and national identity.
