An analysis of the Norwegian media market is presented, focusing on five key issue areas: changes in media usage, financing, technology, ownership and legislation. The analysis partially supports one of the key features of Hallin & Mancini's model, i.e. the fairly interventionist role of the Norwegian authorities in the media sector.

Taking as a starting point a politically motivated mass killing in Norway in 2011, the article argues that this was not an isolated incident but forms part of a broader European surge of right-wing extremism and populist political rhetoric. These have become manifest in many parts of Europe and other regions in recent years, including the Christchurch killings in March 2019 in New Zealand. Against this backdrop, some reflections are offered on challenges to political leadership in democratic societies and how intercultural communication studies can assist in the analysis of political right-wing rhetoric and populism. ; acceptedVersion

Youth on the Move started as a three-year project 2013-2015 between 4 partner institutions in the Netherlands, Germany, Turkey and Norway. Students and staff in media-related disciplines from the four countries set out to develop an online magazine to cover issues such as education, employment and mobility. The project is financed by the European Union, as part of the EU2020 smart growth strategy. It is organized as a series of annual intensive programmes, or IPs, held in February each year in one of the partner countries. This paper is divided into two parts. Part 1 outlines the EU2020 strategy, the project and partner institutions and the first IP in Amsterdam in February 2013. We also consider theoretical and practical aspects of online magazine narratives in today's multimedia global environment, and introduce student productions from Youth on the Move. Part 2 analyzes the outcomes of the first IP held in Amsterdam in February 2013, based on student evaluations and interviews with staff. A brief note is added on the recently completed second IP in Oslo in February 2014. Finally, changes in EU higher education policy that will affect the third IP in Stuttgart in 2015 are taken into account.

This article provides a critical analysis of the digitization of healthcare communication in Italy, Finland, Norway, and Spain. Particularly, we focus on organizational communication and interactions among institutions, providers, and patients. A qualitative content analysis was conducted on data collected between January and May 2019 from (a) documents and policies and (b) interviews in each country with health-related key experts. Results indicate that Finland and Norway are closer than Italy and Spain to the EU discourse concerning the digitization of healthcare communication. Despite what we see as two roads of innovation, all four countries share problems such as the transition toward patient-centered care and the standardization of e-services at different levels. Given that the COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated these practices since March 2020, this article suggests that European digitization of healthcare is undergoing rapid change that warrants broader analysis. ; publishedVersion ; Peer reviewed
