Exporting the Public Value Test: The Regulation of Public Broadcasters’ New Media Services Across Europe
Public service broadcasters across Europe are venturing into the digital world, launching niche TV channels, building extensive websites, developing commercial services, entering into partnerships with external actors, and exploring new ways to reach users, whether its through smart phone apps or screens in public spaces. Such endeavours intensify fundamental discussions about what we need public service media institutions for. These are complex discussions, building on history, encompassing new technology, and involving a range of strong stakeholders.
Hur farligt är internet: Resultat från den svenska delen av den europeiska undersökningen EU Kids Online
Så gott som alla barn i åldrarna 9 till 16 år i Sverige använder internet – de flesta varje eller nästan varje dag och ju längre tid desto äldre de är. Majoriteten av dessa barn har inte stött på något som besvärat eller upprört dem under sin internetanvändning det senaste året. På en allmän fråga svarade dock ungefär en av fem (19%) att de upplevt obehag av något på internet de senaste tolv månaderna. Detta varierar från en dryg tiondel bland de yngre (9-10 år) till en fjärdedel bland de äldre (15-16 år).
En himla många kanaler: Flerkanalpublicering i svenska mediehus
Dagstidningar har sedan några år tillbaka blivit mediehus med många kanaler – betald dagstidning, gratistidning, webbsida med allt mer av interaktivitet och rörlig bild, egna tv- och radiokanaler. Bakom utvecklingen finns såväl tekniska som ekonomiska och publicistiska drivkrafter. Dessa drivkrafter är sammanflätade och ömsesidigt beroende av varandra. Flerkanalpubliceringen är medieföretagens strategi för att möta den tilltagande fragmenteringen av publikerna.

Programformat och medier i konvergens: Formathandel, juridiskt skydd och branschpraxis
Långt borta är den tid då radio- och tv-producenter kunde åka till andra länder för att ta del av populära program, för att sedan mer eller mindre fritt kopiera dem och anpassa dem till hemmapubliken. Den internationella handeln med tv-program är i dag mycket omfattande och har utvecklats till en industri som omsätter stora belopp. Kring programmen eller snarare varan med dess olika innehåll finns paket med rättigheter och skyldigheter. Inom tv-branschen använder man begreppet formathandel, som växt fram på ett oreglerat sätt.
Small Among Giants: Television Broadcasting in Smaller Countries
Big countries and major markets are often proposed as models for TV broadcasting everywhere. This is evident in the development of European media policies and strategic renewal. It is taken for granted that such offer suitable and desirable models for smaller countries. This book questions that assumption on the basis of empirical research. Does a media market in a country with a few million people and far less GDP have the same opportunities as countries with many times the population or wealth? Does the same logic apply in all cases?
Communicating Risks: Towards the Threat Society
Communicating risks is an increasingly complicated task in contemporary society. Risks travel physically as well as discursively between continents, countries and cultures. Globalization itself has actualized new alleged risks in politics, media and public debates. Globalization and conflicts have become major issues. The growth of xenophobia and populism of various kinds has lead to dramatic changes in geographical and mental maps. In what direction globalization will take us depends on how the media portray the possibilities and problems associated with it.
Diversity in Theory and Practice: News Journalists in Sweden and Germany
Research on media and diversity has mainly focused on content analysis, or more precisely, on how immigrants are covered by the mass media. This book concentrates on the media workers themselves, and on mass media organizations. News journalists with immigrant backgrounds responded to interview questions such as: How do journalists with immigrant backgrounds experience their working conditions, career possibilities, and their possibilities of influencing media coverage? and How does ethnic diversity contribute to a change in the media coverage?
A Sampler of International Media and Communication Statistics 2010
The contemporary media culture raises more complex issues than ever before. Digital technologies, and advances of media such as the Internet, have driven the development.

Media Mergers and the Defence of Pluralism
Media mergers and acquisitions (M&A) have been, and continue to be, a salient feature of Nordic media markets. What once was a very fragmented and diverse industry is today consolidated to such a degree that many fear for the effects on pluralism. Internet is today the turbo charger of this process.
Media operate on a commercial market and have to survive on its terms. On the other hand, as purveyors of information and ideas, they are different from manufactured goods and services. The book springs out of this duality.
The Digital Public Sphere: Challenges for Media Policy
Until recently, media policy was thought of as national, media-specific, and as part of the cultural domain. All is changing in a digital public sphere: first, by the processes of globalization in a broad sense; second, by a blurring of borders between media, which can be summed up as convergence; and third, by a more far-reaching commercialisation of the media. The transformation triggered by these developments are ongoing and have been so for quite a few years. Thus, it is time to take stock. The different contributions in this book set out to do that.
Children and Youth in the Digital Media Culture: From a Nordic Horizon
The Clearinghouse on Children Youth and Media has published eleven yearbooks to date. In them, researchers and experts from all the corners of the world have treated a wide variety of issues from many different perspectives. The global dimension is a core principle in the work of the Clearinghouse with respect to both the content we publish and distribute and the contributors who produce it. This, the twelfth Yearbook, represents a departure from that hallowed principle of global representation.
Media Literacy Education: Nordic Perspectives
Digital culture offers different relationships with media to the ones that have existed earlier. Globally, enhancing media literacy is related to aspects of Human Rights, especially to the Rights of the Child. During recent years, there have been important policy efforts for developing media literacy education around the world.
