Introduction: Machine Communication / Paula Bialski, Finn Brunton, and Mercedes Bunz -- Hello from Earth / Finn Brunton -- The Force of Communication / Mercedes Bunz -- Code Review as Communication: The Case of Corporate Software Developers / Paula Bialski.

This article deals with communication policies within the public sector. It takes its point of departure within the overall framework of corporate communication and hence exclusively sees communication policies from that perspective. Communication policies are seen as means of corporate communication. As means of corporate communication they feature what we have labelled 'mediational properties' within an organization. As such they – from a communicative point of view – constitute the interface between the strategic and the operational levels of communication management. As policies they should support decision making processes when it comes to ensuring that any instance of communication is in line with the mission, vision and values of an organisation. And they should offer a defi nite course of communicative action contingent on situational factors. The contextual background of the article is the re-structuring of the Danish regional political landscape, which is to have taken place by January 1st 2007. Communicating the mission, vision and values of the new municipalities is seen as an essential part of re-configurating and maintaining political legitimacy in the transaction period and beyond. The empirical part of the article deals with an extensive corpus analysis of a broad selection of authentic communication policies stemming from Danish municipalities. The analytical framework applied gives rise to a number of new observations regarding the generic heterogeneity of communication policies. The analysis also delivers new input to the theoretical discussion of the status of communication policies within a corporate communication framework in general and within a current Danish municipality setting in particular.

Scientific debates in modern societies often blur the lines between the science that is being debated and the political, moral, and legal implications that come with its societal applications. This manuscript traces the origins of this phenomenon to professional norms within the scientific discipline and to the nature and complexities of modern science and offers an expanded model of science communication that takes into account the political contexts in which science communication takes place. In a second step, it explores what we know from empirical work in political communication, public opinion research, and communication research about the dynamics that determine how issues are debated and attitudes are formed in political environments. Finally, it discusses how and why it will be increasingly important for science communicators to draw from these different literatures to ensure that the voice of the scientific community is heard in the broader societal debates surrounding science.
