Negotiating the EU Internal Market for ProductsHøjbjerg, Erik; Frankel, Christian (København, 2004)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: The EU internal market has predominantly been studied in terms of changes in delegation of authority and division of labor between EU institutions and member states. However, this EU internal focus ignores that already in 1987 the completion of the internal market was substantially left to the private European standardization organizations (ESO). The paper addresses two fundamental challenges in this transnational, public-private, and internal-external delegation of authority. First, it involves a governance challenge, because private actors are directly involved – but to a certain extent outside EU political and administrative control – in the constitution of the internal market. Second, the delegation raises important analytical questions concerning the identification of the institutional locus of European integration, when the realization of the political goals with the internal market is dependent on an inter-organizational coordination between the EU and ESO. Applying the analytical concept of a ‘policy field’ the analysis shows how the completion of the internal market fundamentally challenges institutionalized conceptions of the role of politics in constituting markets.

Bordum, Anders; Højbjerg, Erik (København, 2003)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: The paper critically reviews the intentional model of power in organizational management from seven different perspectives. It summarizes some of the most debated issues within political science over the recent decades in relation to an intentional understanding of the concept of power. We claim that these issues are also relevant within organizational management and strategy studies, and we point, in particular, to two contemporary research areas, in which the intentional concept of power seems inadequate to further push the research agenda.

Financial Literacy and the Corporate Governmentalization of the ‘Business of Life’Højbjerg, Erik (Frederiksberg, 2014)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: This paper is a work-‐in-‐progress. The purpose of the paper is programmatic in the sense that it tries to formulate elements of a research agenda revolving around the issue of corporate governmentalization. By this term I intend to indicate ways in which companies seek to construe and mobilize consumer subjectivities whose consuming practices involve the self-‐ management of the individual along etho-‐political goals of good governance. The back-‐drop of this topic is the investigation of the forms of contemporary social and political transformation, with a focus on the transformative powers of ‘politicized private enterprises’ or the ‘political corporation’. The research question is: How do corporations seek to construe and mobilize responsible citizens by offering products and services, the consumption of which are assumed to transform the individual¹s self-‐relationship along proclaimed ethical and political goals? The research question will be discussed in the context of financial literacy educational initiatives. In the aftermath of the 2008 global financial crisis, increasing the financial literacy of ordinary citizen-‐consumers has taken a prominent position among regulators and financial institutions alike. The logic seems to be that financially capable individuals will enjoy social and political inclusion as well as an ability to exercise a stronger influence in markets. The paper specifically contributes to our understanding of the governmentalization of the present by addressing how -‐ at least in part -‐ the corporate spread of financial literacy educational initiatives can be observed as a particular form of power at-‐a-‐distance. The focus is on the role of private enterprise in governmentalizing the ‘business of life’ by establishing and mobilizing specific conceptual forms around which the life skills of the entrepreneurial self involves a responsibilization of the individual citizen-‐consumer.

Privat produktpolitik i det indre markedFrankel, Christian; Højbjerg, Erik (Frederiksberg, 2012)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: De politiske og administrative studier af det indre markeds færdiggørelse har overvejende fokuseret på, hvordan gennemførelsen er bundet til en forandring af kompetence‐ og arbejdsdelingen mellem de eksisterende EU institutioner og medlemslandene. Et sådant EU internt fokus ser imidlertid bort fra, at væsentlige dele af gennemførelsen allerede i 1987 med Fællesaktens vedtagelse blev overladt til de private europæiske standardiseringsorganisationer (ESO2). Når man tænker på, hvor vigtig en rolle disse organisationer er tildelt i udviklingen af det indre marked, kan det undre, at denne uddelegering hidtil ikke har været belyst i nævneværdigt omfang. For det første synes uddelegeringen at indeholde demokratiske udfordringer, fordi private aktører gennem medlemsskab af de autonome europæiske standardiseringsorganisationer deltager direkte og i et vist omfang uden for politisk og administrativ kontrol i at fastlægge reglerne for markedsførelsen af varer i det indre marked. For det andet rejser uddelegeringen en række analytiske spørgsmål om, hvor EU integrationens institutionelle locus skal findes, når sikringen af EUs politiske målsætninger med det indre marked er afhængig af en inter‐organisatorisk koordination mellem EU og ESO. Udover at det indre marked er betinget af institutionelle forandringer inden for rammerne af EU er det ligeledes afhængig af en institutionsdannelse mellem de gensidigt autonome organisationer EU og ESO. Endelig, for det tredje, indebærer uddelegeringen en særskilt udfordring for ESO. I takt med at europæisk teknisk standardisering skal indfri bredere samfundsmæssige og politiske hensyn i markedsdannelsesprocessen er der risiko for, at én af de bærende principper i standardiseringsarbejdet, nemlig frivilligheden, sættes under pres. Der er sandsynligvis grænser for, hvad teknisk standardisering kan levere i forhold til samfundsmæssig regulering uden at undergrave sin egen logik.
