Ewa Björling and Göran Hägglund to Take Part in Launch of Market Choice Analysis 2012 Press release 29 March 2012 Ministry for Foreign Affairs Ministry of Health and Social Affairs Ewa Björling and Göran Hägglund to take part in launch of market choice analysis On Thursday 29 March, Swecare is presenting its market analysis study, which is based on information from 150 health and medical care companies and organisations, to Minister for Trade Ewa Björling and Minister for Health and Social Affairs Göran Hägglund. The analysis shows that the health and medical care industry has a very positive view of future foreign ventures and that nearly 40 per cent of the participating companies expect exports to increase by more than 50 per cent over the next three years. This is entirely in line with the Government's efforts to increase External links Swedish exports and to achieve the export vision of doubling exports set by Dr Björling. SweCare "I am, of course, very pleased by these figures. The close link the analysis makes between strongly driven innovation development in Sweden and increased exports is naturally especially interesting, particularly to me in my capacity as a researcher," says Dr Björling. "Swedish health and medical care has a good reputation around the world and we see increased interest for exports and internationalisation. This is very gratifying," says Mr Hägglund. The Government has instructed Swecare and the Swedish Trade Council to carry out the analysis to identify relevant markets for internationalisation and exports in health and medical care and social services, and in the areas of medical technology, pharmaceuticals and biotechnology. The results achieved by identifying markets where Swedish actors can be even more successful and finding partners for cooperation are also expected to contribute to developing Swedish health and medical care and social services.

  • Migration Between Politics, Journalism and PR New Conditions for Power, Citizenship and Democracy?
    10.2478/nor-2014-0109 Nordicom Review 35 (2014) Special Issue, pp. 141-153 Migration between Politics, Journalism and PR New Conditions for Power, Citizenship and Democracy? Göran Palm & Håkan Sandström Abstract In this article we present a preliminary theoretical background and some empirical findings concerning a migrating trend between the fields of politics, PR and journalism: one day a political reporter, the next a communication officer; one day a PR consultant, the next a state secretary. To understand contemporary politics one must, we argue, comprehend the convergence between three fields of power holders that together form the realm of politics and communication: elite politicians, elite political reporters and elite communication/PR officers. Together, they form a communication elite that sets the parameters for the public discourse on politics. When politics is produced and constructed in, and through, social networks formed by elite agents from politics, journalism and PR, what does this mean for how democracy is worked out and what does it mean for citizenship in general? Keywords: communication elites, convergence, politics, public relations, journalism, de- mocracy Introduction This text can be seen as a starting point for a research project – Post-politics in Medi- aocracy: the structural transformation of political communication – dealing with the fundamentals of contemporary Swedish politics and democracy. The basic outline of the project concerns social power, power agents and the production and construction of ‘the political’. In focus are the agents that form the realm of politics and political communication, that is, those agents that possess the resources to produce a dominant discourse – a basic knowledge structure – of politics and democracy, but also how this agency is socially and culturally contextualized.

  • Sweden Manual
    Communicating Europe: Sweden Manual Information and contacts on the Swedish debate on EU enlargement in the Western Balkans Supported by the Strategic Programme Fund of the UK Foreign & Commonwealth Office 2 Communicating Europe: Sweden Manual ABOUT THIS MANUAL Who shapes the debate on the future of EU enlargement in Sweden today as the country takes over the EU Presidency in July 2009? This manual aims to provide an overview by introducing the key people and key institutions. It starts with a summary of core facts about Sweden. It looks at the packed timetable of the Swedish EU Presidency and the many issues on its agenda – including EU enlargement and visa liberalisation for the Western Balkan states. As background to one of the most intensive EU presidencies in recent years the manual describes the Swedish scene; the most important interest groups, the key government institutions, the current government, parliament and the main political parties and the key think-tanks. It looks at the country‟s mix of economic liberalism and welfare policies. It offers an overview of the policy debates on the EU, on future enlargement and the Western Balkans. Space is also given to the media landscape; TV, radio and print media and the internet-based media. As the British academic Timothy Garton Ash has recently written: “Talking here to a leading figure in the upcoming Swedish presidency of the EU, one understands what a hectic circus it will be in the last few months of 2009.” Prime Minister Fredrik Reinfeldt has commented on the government‟s intensive presidency planning: “Sometimes things turn out like the John Lennon song: „Life is what happens to you while you are busy making other plans‟.” The prime minister added: “Planning is important, but things seldom turn out the way you intended.” Any debate in a vibrant democracy is characterised by a range of views.

Peter Hultqvist har frågat mig om jag avser att även fortsättningsvis skriva ett förord till det särtryck som redovisar statsför- valtningens utveckling. Bakgrunden till frågan är att Peter Hultqvist bland annat anser föror- det vara starkt politiskt samt att det skulle råda oklarhet i vilken egenskap jag skriver under förordet. Det särtryck Peter Hultqvist refererar till utgör en bilaga till budget- propositionen. Det är alltså inte en del av budgetpropositionen, utan just en bilaga till densamma. Innehållet i bilagan utgör en redovisning av statsförvaltningens utveckling med fokus på föregående år, i förevarande fall således 2005. Att bilagan trycks upp och distribueras till, förutom samtliga riksdagsledamöter, en relativt stor krets statstjänstemän inklu- sive de fackliga organisationerna är ett uttryck för regeringens uppfatt- ning att innehållet bedöms vara av intresse för personer som arbetar med förvaltningspolitik och arbetsgivarpolitiskt utvecklingsarbete i staten.
