Fear and posting in Nepal : countering spectacles of fear through everyday social media practices

This article sheds light upon the cultural politics of fear in post-war Nepal by narrowing in on the Nepal banda–a recurring political spectacle in which the organizers seek to shut down Nepalese society through violent means–tracing both how it shapes and is appropriated in (offline and online) everyday life. In doing so I demonstrate how the online tactics that people employ to navigate the Nepa

Unveiling impulse buying patterns in travel live-streaming through the lens of social cognitive theory

Grounded in the social cognitive theory, the main aim of this study is to explore the impact of telepresence, social presence, and emotional engagement on impulsive buying tendencies within the realm of travel live-streaming (TLS). To examine further, the moderating effect of guidance shopping was included. An online questionnaire was distributed to 332 live-streaming viewers from China, and the c

Connecting Social Science and Information Technology Through an Interface-Centric Framework of Analysis

The gathering pace of IT innovation has, or ought to have had notable methodological repercussions for the social-science community (and beyond). Where yesterday the researcher could unhurriedly unlock the social-scientific significance of a chosen medium, secure in the knowledge that his or her work would have bearing for many years, by now there is every reason to confront a fear that the prodde

How CSR Practitioners reformulate their calling through social-symbolic work practices over time

Calling has gained importance in the career and organization scholarship as a key concept to better explain the meaningfulness of work from a humanistic perspective. On the contrary, much debate remains about the ways a calling–and the meaningfulness intertwined with it–can transform over time. To respond to this problem in the literature, we investigate the calling of corporate social responsibil

Cosmopolitan attitudes through transnational social practices?

Within the scope of the debate surrounding globalization, ever increasing attention is being directed to the growth of border-crossing social relations and the emergence of transnational social spaces on the micro-level. In particular, the question of how these border-crossing interrelations influence the attitudes and values of the people involved causes some controversy. Some assume that the inc

Becoming society again : Reimagining new social contracts through Scandinavian creation theology

This article focuses on bodily care as the basis of economy. Drawing on Luther and Scandinavian Creation Theology, with an emphasis on shared situatedness and society, I discuss contemporary threats to welfare states. Conservative arguments in favor of family and small communities, combined with charity, provide a cultural/religious alibi for a global “neoliberalism,” where citizens are replaced b

Social Status through Crucibles

This paper focuses on Bronze Age melting crucibles in southern Scandinavia. The shape and purpose of the crucibles have long been known, but the process of making one has not been studied thoroughly. The crucibles have in some cases been reconstructed in order to replicate the casting process or the finished product, but have rarely been the main subject of research. In this paper crucibles found

Transforming urban water governance through social (triple-loop) learning

The sustainable development of cities is threatened by a worldwide water crisis. Improved social learning is urgently needed to transform urban water governance and make it more integrated and adaptive. However, empirical studies remain few and fragmented. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to analyse how social learning has supported or inhibited sustainable transformations in urban water govern

Employees’ Information Systems Security Policy Compliance: Understanding employees’ perception of their ISSP compliance through the theoretical lens of the social bond theory.

Företag har traditionellt koncentrerat sig på den tekniska biten av IT-säkerhet, med brandväggar, virusskydd och så vidare. Men eftersom många säkerhetsincidenter sker på grund av att företagets anställda inte följer företagets informationssäkerhetspolicy bör IT-säkerhet även innefatta den mänskliga faktorn. Med min studie så vill jag undersöka hur anställda uppfattar hur de sociala banden på arbe

Energy poverty and the elderly-care: Exploring energy poverty in the elderly-care through case studies with social welfare organizations in Taiwan

The topic of energy poverty has recently gained prominence amongst researchers and academia in Taiwan within the context of rising energy prices and low emission energy transitions. Social welfare organizations (SWOs) that provide 24-hour residence and care for vulnerable populations, such as the elderly and disabled, highly depend on various energy services and are likely to be significantly affe
