Changing Organizational Culture
How is practical change work carried out in modern organizations? And what kind of challenges, tasks and other difficulties are normally encountered as a part of it? In a turbulent and changing world, organizational culture is often seen as central for sustained competitiveness. Organizations are faced with increased demands for change but these are often so challenging that they meet heavy resistance and fizzle out.

Intercultural Crisis Communication
Intercultural Crisis Communication poses pertinent questions and provides powerful responses to crises that have characterised the modern world since 2010.

Particular consideration is given to situations where rare or minority languages represent a substantial obstacle to humanitarian operations. Contemporary case studies from the USA, Africa, Europe, and Armenia provide...

Starting from the traditional approach of response and relief, the emphasis has gradually shifted to disaster risk reduction. From international nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) to national and local NGOs, all stakeholders have recognized the significance of and need for community-based risk reduction. In their different capacities they have endeavored to establish links to the policy options at the local and national levels. There still are many issues that remain untouched by CSOs, however, and local CSOs face special challenges in resources in terms of human, financial, and technical i...

Over stregen- under besættelsen
Om nogle af de mennesker, som kom i maskinen under efterkrigsopgøret fordi de af den ene eller anden grund klart gik helt over stregen eller blev anbragt over stregen og om hvad deres brølere bestod i, f.eks.: mord, stikkeri, åndeligt medløberi, opportunisme eller nazist af overbevisning.
