Et eksempel på dette er ungdomssiden "Skum", der udbydes af DR. I denne artikel bliver der sat fokus på en bestemt del af denne, nemlig rubrikken "spil og satire", og naermere bestemt to af de relativt simple spil under denne rubrik: "Mujaffa" og "Bitch". De virker på forskellig vis sammen med andre dele af "Skum"/DR/tv/internettet og repraesenterer en ny kombination af genrerne satire og computerspil. Samtidig indgår de to spil i en resignifikation af køn og etnicitet, forstået som kulturelle skemaer, der er udsat for en aktuel forhandling i såvel ungdomskulturen som den bredere kulturelle kontekst. Med henblik på at belyse, hvordan denne resignifikation foregår i og omkring spillene inddrages udvalgte teorier om parodi, performance og sproghandlinger.

In Denmark, this happens in the political and discursive context of the so-called “ghetto act” (2018), a set of laws and amendments aimed at radically changing low-income public housing neighbourhoods with a high percentage of “non-Western” residents. Consequential, several Danish public housing neighbourhoods undergo drastic renovation and demolition. Simultaneously, cultural governing bodies and institutions approach the neighbourhoods with a variety of publicly funded projects in arts and culture. These are part of a general strategy to reach new audiences / user groups by supporting art manifestations outside the formal art institutions but also of a more specific betterment agenda based on the assumption that the deprived social housing areas can be “elevated” through art and cultural projects. Based on research in four Danish social housing areas in urban margins, the article introduces the social and cultural policies targeting the areas. We identify a triple exposure to social inequality, stigmatization and intervention, and ask how public art projects in the areas interact with and may resist this exposure. From the perspective of Chantal Mouffe’s notions of antagonistic politics and dissensual artistic practices, we explore a range of public art projects in four selected social housing areas, and identify four different types of art projects: 1) permanent physical interventions, 2) temporary (re)makings of the neighbourhood, 3) reinforcement of creative skills and agency, and 4) co-inhabitation. Presenting cases from each of these four types, we outline their challenges and potentials. Finally, we discuss how they fit into and/or negotiate the “betterment” agenda and the seemingly neutral vision of the mixed, balanced, or creative city.

Whereas former studies tended to highlight how communicating on Facebook adapts to neoliberal discourses on networking as means of self-promotion and intensified connectivity, we are going to argue that Facebook is rather about an ambiguous performativity of everyday life by which politicized discourses are filtered through social interaction and personal embodiment. Accordingly, we are going to demonstrate, how legitimate discourse on Facebook takes the form of “publicized modes” of appearance and an ongoing negotiation of “(in)appropriate” behavior, shared content and other forms of contribution.

How to identify all kinds of risks, evaluate these risks scientifically and manage the risk control effectively are the challenge for each sully chain manager and the relevant researchers. In order to reduce the occurrence of the food safety issues and ensure the quality of the people's life, it is necessary to evaluate the food safety. Based on the food supply chain safety evaluation model, this paper uses AHP fuzzy integrated evaluation method with a new scale to evaluate food supply chain safety risk. The paper provides reference to ensure the safety of the food supply chain.

The study is based on a survey followed by focus group interviews and observation of participants’ profiles. We argue that communication on Facebook is characterized by an ambiguous performativity by which politicized discourses on public appearance are socially filtered and negotiated as social norm-building. Accordingly, we demonstrate how the personal profiles of Facebook take the form of ‘publicized modes’ of appearance and how a negotiation of ‘appropriate’ vs ‘inappropriate’ participation is taking place.

It is arguedthat the assemblage forms an experiment to materialize present theories of radicaldemocracy and the radical art institution, respectively, and take the form of apara-institutional artivism. On this ground, and drawing on the concept of theassemblage, it is discussed what the outcome and learning of the experiment mightbe. The events played simultaneously in the city and on social platforms such asFacebook, mixlr and vimeo and together with released material on the internetfrom freethought these resources provide the empirical base of the case study. Theauthors participated in the opening week of September 2016 and the analyses aresupported by on site observation.

In this article, I will present a research on the Danish blogosphere, the focus of which has been on individual and personal blogging. Inspired by media geography, I pursue the idea that personal blogging can be understood as an embodied, collaborative and distributed practice which constitutes a digital realm to be inhabited by its users. Within media geography, the concept of “textures”, taken form Henri Lefevbre and the sociology of everyday life, designates how the self, the everyday and the mundane are spun together and mark out different cultural-material routes in and between space and place, real and virtual and in so doing create different reticular patterns of the commonplace (Falkheimer & Jansson, 2006; Jansson, 2002, 2008). By means of the concepts of textures, routes and patterns, I identify four different genres in personal blogging to be illustrated by four examples from the Da...
