Episodes in the Berlin-Göttingen Rivalry, 1870-1930
2000
One of the more striking features in the development of higher mathematics at the German universities during the nineteenth century was the prominent role played by various rival centers. Among these, Berlin and Gottingen stood out as the two leading institutions for the study of research-level mathematics. By the 1870s they were attracting an impressive array of aspiring talent not only from within the German states but also from numerous other countries as well. The rivalry between these two dynamos has long been legendary, yet little has been written about the sources of the conflicts that arose or the substantive issues behind them. Here I hope to shed some light on this theme by recall…

“The Olympic Torch Burns, and Great Suspicion Blazes” – China Narratives in the German Media during the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing
2009
This paper focuses on the description of China in leading German daily and weekly newspapers during the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing. On the basis of a brief outline of the main China narratives in German media since the 1950s, this paper analyses China-related articles which were published during the period August 8–15, 2008. It argues that reports on China are mostly based on well established German notions of China and centre around the image of a despotic and/or dangerous China. Therefore, they primarily refer back to the source culture and contain little information of value regarding the target culture.
Problematic and non-problematic engagement in Online Sexual Activities across the lifespan
2021
During the last decade, the number of people using the Internet for sexual purposes has increased exponentially. However, most studies conducted so far have analysed Online Sexual Activity (OSA) of adolescents and young people, meaning that we have few information on how this phenomenon is expressed across the lifespan. The aim of this study was to analyse three aspects of OSA (prevalence of different OSAs, motives to engage in OSA, and excessive and problematic engagement in OSA) in a large sample of individuals in different developmental stages. A self-selected sample of 8040 individuals between 12 and 85 years old were recruited and completed an online survey. Participants were distribut…

FROM SEEKERS TO ACTIVISTS
2009
Media culture is a firm part of youth cultures today. Media can also be seen as one empowering technology in the information society alongside traditional school and government. What kind of civic identities are young people constructing in contemporary media culture? This article discusses media-saturated youth and audience agency, drawing on Dahlgren's ideas of civic culture. Relying on empirical data from two case studies in Finland, we will introduce a typology of civic identities, which the young construct as members of the public in relation to media. Our first case study is a youth civic website called Vaikuttamo.net and the second is the Youth Voice Editorial Board, which consists o…
Journalist–source relations and the deliberative system: A network performance approach to investigating journalism’s contribution to facilitating pu…
2018
Journalist–source relationships and interactions are interpreted in this study as crucial mechanisms for linking different arenas in a deliberative system. To unravel these source networks, 106 semi-standardized interviews with journalists as well as public relations (PR) professionals from government delegations and non-governmental organizations were conducted on-site three United Nations (UN) climate change conferences between 2010 and 2013, and an online survey was administered during the conference in 2015. The analysis shows that most journalists maintain close relationships with their home country delegation. However, journalists experienced in climate conference coverage also maint…
El Gran rescate de la prensa española: los anticipos reintegrables durante la Primera Guerra Mundial
2021
Resumen La crisis económica que se derivó de la Primera Guerra Mundial provocó, entre otros efectos, la caída aguda de los resultados económicos de la prensa española y una amenaza real de colapso generalizado. Reconvertida a grandes empresas, con exponentes como el primer trust periodístico español, creado en 1906, los editores de periódicos plantearon por primera vez un dilema clave para el sistema representativo: si se quería que existiese prensa, el tesoro público debía colaborar mediante subvenciones a la compra de papel. Se puso en marcha, de esta forma, el primer gran rescate de la prensa española, con una aportación millonaria de dinero público a empresas privadas que, en teoría, te…
