Resume: This is a participant-observer report concerning curriculum deployment of Bernard J.F. Lonergan’s insight-based critical realism and general empirical method for interdisciplinary research methods and allied courses in Copenhagen Business School (CBS, Denmark), from 2001 to the present. I also report similar instruction in interdisciplinary methods for management and organization studies at the International School for Social and Business Studies (ISSB, Slovenia) in 2012.1 The overall time period has been entirely under the aegis of the Bologna Process, begun in 1999, and the European Higher Education Area (EHEA), launched in March, 2010. Both the originating Bologna Process and subsequent EHEA envision curriculum development appropriate to “ensure that the European higher education system acquires a world-wide degree of attraction” (European Commission, 2013). In addition, the Bologna Process calls for specification of the “necessary European dimensions of higher education” (Ibid.). The point of this working paper is to report teaching success and indicate potential merits of Lonergan’s general empirical method, grounded in insight-based critical realism, as a robust epistemological basis for EHEA university curriculum and instruction. The design approach to Lonergan’s method offers grounds to think it uniquely adapted for interdisciplinary social science in the complex trans-cultural, multi-lingual, and religiously pluralist EHEA, thus providing curriculum content adequate and appropriate for the “necessary European dimensions of higher education.

Resume: This paper investigates properties of translation processes, as observed in the translation behaviour of student and professional translators. The translation process can be divided into a gisting, drafting and post-editing phase. We find that student translators have longer gisting phases whereas professional translators have longer post-editing phases. Long-distance revisions, which would typically be expected during post-editing, occur to the same extent during drafting as during post-editing. Further, both groups of translators seem to face the same translation problems. We suggest how those findings might be taken into account in the design of computer assisted translation tools.

Resume: Using pure single-source data, this paper provides evidence for the existence and magnitude of long-term advertising effects across FMCG product categories. Furthermore, we focus on the difficulties that arise for wellestablished brands when new products are introduced into the market and product innovations take place. Our research shows that such occurrences drastically alter the relationship between share of voice and share of market in any given FMCG market, hence making it pivotal for marketers to focus on such relationships in order to maintain market position.

De-specialisation and “Stickiness”Laursen, Keld; Villumsen, Gert; Dalum, Bent (Aalborg, 1996)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: The paper examines an issue related to the discussion of national specificity - whether the group of OECD countries are characterised by a high degree of stability of their export specialisation patterns at the country level or not. During a period of nearly three decades from 1965 to 1992, 20 OECD countries are examined. In addition we test whether the countries, have become more or less specialised in terms of trade specialisation in the period in question. In order to fulfill these aims we examine the sensitivity for, firstly; the level of aggregation, and secondly; the kind of statistical methodology applied. In this context we distinguish between specialisation (or despecialisation) in trade patterns on the one hand, and divergence (or on the contrary convergence) in trade patterns on the other. A specialisation process refers to a process in which specialisation intra-country becomes more dispersed (and counter-wise for de-specialisation). On the contrary, a divergence process refers to a process in which countries become more different in terms of specialisation in a particular sector, across countries (and counter-wise for convergence). The results show that elements of ‘stickiness’ and incremental change are combined for what concerns the intra-country analysis. In addition there is a (however slow) tendency for countries to de-specialise in terms of exports. The sector-wise results display convergence both in terms of - and )-convergence.

Labour Market, Health Care and Prescription DrugsHøjbjerg Jacobsen, Rasmus (Frederiksberg, 2011)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: This paper uses a register dataset for the entire Danish population to examine the effect of early motherhood on labour market measures, health care measures and family measures for the mothers and their offspring. The dataset is divided into three groups according to the age of the woman at the time of her first child delivery. Using standard cross-sectional econometric techniques the results show that very young mothers (aged 16-21) have significantly lower employment rates, higher propensity to receive welfare benefits and a lower wage income. Children of very young mothers have a higher family replacement rate, more services received from General Practitioners and a higher propensity to receive ADHD-medications. The majority of the effects reported are also significantly greater for mothers who were aged 22-25 at the birth of their first child compared to older mothers.

Resume: Investors choosing a portfolio strategy, in order to secure a pension at a future date for example, are faced with many uncertainties. One major uncertainty is the amount by which their pension fund will be supplemented by personal savings from a variety of sources such as life insurance contracts, bequests, or property sales. Over long periods of time these uncertainties are likely to be large and difficult to hedge, and hence may have a significant effect on the dynamic portfolio strategy. Drawing on the results of previous literature on the reaction of investors to non-unhedgeable background risk, and on the theory of stochastic dynamic programming, this article derives optimal strategies for investors maximising the expected utility of terminal wealth, where this wealth consists of the value of a pension fund plus accumulated personal savings. Numerical results, assuming that the market portfolio and the expectation of personal savings follow (possibly) correlated geometric Brownian motions, are derived to illustrate the effects of the size and uncertainty of the personal savings, as well as the effect of the resolution of the uncertainty in them over time. The computation uses a new technique for implementing the stochastic dynamic programming. This involves a binomial approximation, in two dimensions, which ensures that the computations are feasible for relatively long-term problems.

Expatriates´ Identity Work in Reverse Knowledge TransferFeldt, Liv Egholm (Frederiksberg, 2011)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: In the last decade, researchers have shown that MNCs need to reverse knowledge transfer to secure their competitiveness in the global market. Lately this has been studied through re/expatriates. This study presents two exemplary cases from a study of 64 interviews conducted in 5 of the largest Danish MNCs. The purpose of this paper is twofold. First, to understand the role identity work plays in the ability and willingness of expatriates to learn and transfer knowledge. Second, to introduce Life Course Theory as an important methodological contribution with which to capture the entangled relationship between agency and structure within reverse knowledge transfer. Third, to develop and extend the current theoretical and methodological frame that govern the research of knowledge transfer. The present study indicates that institutionally generated organisational frames and work organising practices develop and feed certain power structures and communities, which influence the possibility of agency and as a result reverse knowledge transfer. The findings of this study stress that: 1) power is as an important productive force in identity work: consequently, it has the ability both to hinder and spur the processes of transformative learning and reverse knowledge transfer; 2) reverse knowledge transfer can be hindered by the lack of transformative learning in the single individual. The empirical material in this paper has been collected in the research project ”Cultural Intelligence as a Strategic Resource”. The project was funded by the Danish Strategic Research Council and conducted by Lisbeth Clausen, Liv Egholm Feldt, Martine Cardel Gertsen, Anne-Marie Søderberg, Verner Worm and Mette Zølner, Copenhagen Business School, Denmark. The research team have had privileged access to five of the largest Danish MNCs. While the collection of material has in general been carried out by the research team, Liv Egholm Feldt is the only person responsible for the analysis, reflections and perspectives presented in this paper. To secure the anonymity of the interviewees, fictitious names have been used. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/8436 Filer i denne post: 1

Resume: La question de l’origine du langage humain n’est peut-être pas des plus en vogue, ni des plus urgentes parmi les multiples problèmes que soulève l’étude du langage. En effet, cette question est, depuis longtemps, considérée comme un problème que des linguistes sérieux ne perdent pas leur temps à vouloir résoudre, c’est le domaine des fous et des amateurs illuminés. Par conséquent, la question a été bannie des discussions des sociétés scientifiques comme la Société linguistique de Paris, dont les statuts de 1866 dans l’article II explicitement interdisent les discussions sur l’origine du langage ou la création d’un langage universel. Il n’en est pas moins possible d’examiner la question de façon équilibrée et, au moins, d’indiquer la sorte d’évidence qu’on pourra alléguer.

How Luxury Experiences Contribute to Consumer SelvesBauer, Martina; von Wallpach, Sylvia; Hemetsberger, Andrea (Frederiksberg, 2012)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: Hitherto literature in the area of luxury and luxury brands predominantly applies a management-oriented view of luxury. This project departs from traditional views on luxury by focusing on consumers’ experiences with what they perceive as luxury. More specifically, the objective is to enhance understanding regarding how luxury experiences contribute to consumers’ selves. The empirical study is exploratory in nature and relies on consumer diaries regarding consumer luxury experiences. This project contributes to existing literature by outlining four different forms of how luxury relates to consumers’ selves. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/8683 Filer i denne post: 1

Resume: Over the last 25 years the Danish economy has had difficulties in growing as fast as other EU countries and the United States. While the average growth difference is small, it signals that if this trend persists into the next century, Denmark will not be able to maintain its high position in the world income hierarchy. Moreover, during these years, the number of individuals living on transfer incomes have increased dramatically. Although we interpret both tendencies as signals of structural weaknesses, we are also aware that these developments may reflect that other goals in economic policy have been pursued, such as protecting the environment and/or achieving certain redistributive objectives. This paper analyzes this and other broad policy issues of importance for Denmark. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/7612 Filer i denne post: 1

Studier i den biopolitiske ambivalensCarnera, Alexander (Frederiksberg, 2010)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: This rather substantial summary will encapsulate what is the meaning of Performance Society. This work consists of three thesis elements touching on politics, economy and art that confront the question of biopolitics. The work describes a power over life (biopower) and will follow a twofold logic: the first is expressed through state administration and management technologies; the second is expressed as localized in life itself as subject [zoe] in new modes of production of work through the power of imagination, self‐creation, and affectproduction within Art and Culture. The summary is organized around three different themes. Each of these themes constitutes my contribution to the field of biopolitics..... URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/8019 Filer i denne post: 1

En revitalisering af Luhmann & Foucaults magtanalytikRennison, Betina Wolfgang (København, 2005)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: Magt er et pudsigt fænomen. Det er et fænomen, vi alle umiddelbart kender til, et fænomen vi alle lader til at genkende, når vi støder på det. Et fænomen, vi laver undersøgelser af, som vi søger at ’udrede’ og ’indfange’ for derved at kunne kontrollere det, der kontrollerer os. Men magt er også et fænomen, vi ikke synes at kunne begribe. Ikke alene er magt ofte et tabu i kommunikationen, noget vi undlader at tale om – et sprængfarligt fænomen, vi ikke tør nærme os. Men magten er også i sig selv et svært tilnærmeligt fænomen. Det er ikke til at hitte rede i, hvori magten egentlig består. Det er ikke så ligetil at udrede magten. Dette paper tilbyder en måde at iagttage magt på. Det præsenterer en analytik, hvormed det bliver muligt at begribe dette ubegribelige fænomen. Paperet lancerer en teoretisk udfoldelse af magtbegrebet, men antager først og fremmest en analysestrategisk karakter, hvor bidraget er at levere en strategi til, hvordan magt kan iagttages og analyseres. Dens sigte er at fungere som fundament for konkrete magtanalyser af organisationer og ledelsesrelationer. Paperet stiller skarpt på spørgsmålet om, hvordan man kan iagttage socialiteten og kommunikationen med et magtblik. Hvad får man øje på, når man anretter et magtens blik, hvori består et sådant magtblik og hvilken grundproblematik og genstand kaster det af sig?

The influence of technological regimes and strategic posturesMahnke, Volker; Overby, Mikkel Lucas; Özcan, Serden (København, 2004)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: IT-enabled innovations are of increasing importance for competitive success in most sectors today. This paper offers a novel theoretical and empirically illustrated explanation of why IT-outsourcing strategies differ between innovative first-movers, fast followers and late entrants. In particular, an analysis of three companies in the financial sector - Charles Schwab, Fidelity Investment, and Merrill Lynch - reveals that governance choices influence a company’s ap-propriable learning curve advantage to slow down or speed up adoption and imitation of IT-enabled innovation. Moreover, we discuss the implications of governance choices in techno-logical environments characterised by either accumulation or disruption. Keywords: IT-enabled innovation, outsourcing, technological regime, strategic posture, first-mover advantages, financial services, online brokerage URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/6488 Filer i denne post: 1

Exploring the Role of sensemaking Narratives in Stakeholders’ Shared Understanding of the BrandGyrd-Jones, Richard; Törmälä, Minna (Frederiksberg, 2017)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: Purpose: An important part of how we sense a brand is how we make sense of a brand. Sense-making is naturally strongly connected to how we cognize about the brand. But sense-making is concerned with multiple forms of knowledge that arise from our interpretation of the brand-related stimuli: Declarative, episodic, procedural and sensory. Knowledge is given meaning through mental association (Keller, 1993) and / or symbolic interaction (Blumer, 1969). These meanings are centrally related to individuals’ sense of identity or “identity needs” (Wallpach & Woodside, 2009). The way individuals make sense of brands is related to who people think they are in their context and this shapes what they enact and how they interpret the brand (Currie & Brown, 2003; Weick, Sutcliffe, & Obstfeld, 2005; Weick, 1993). Our subject of interest in this paper is how stakeholders interpret and ascribe meaning to the brand and how these meaning narratives play out over time to create meta-narratives that drive brand meaning co-creation. In this paper we focus on the concept of brand identity since it is at the level of identity that the brand creates meaning for individuals (Kapferer, 2012; Csaba & Bengtsson, 2006).
