In need of ideas and inspiration on teaching cultural economics? No worries!
MSO Trine Bille has, in collaboration with Dr. Anna Mignosa and Professor Ruth Towse, published a new book: "Teaching Cultural Economics".

"The breadth of material provided within these pages is invaluable to teachers who wish to offer courses in cultural economics and are seeking guidance for developing a new course, as well as for teachers who are already teaching cultural economics and are seeking inspiration for new case studies. The material can also be used by teachers of other courses who wish to teach cultural economics as part of their curriculum."

Congratulations with the new book Trine, we can't wait to read! :)

In 2019 Professor Roy Suddaby, Frans Bevort and Professor Jesper Strandgaard Pedersen published their article: "Professional Judgment and Legitimacy Work in an Organizationally Embedded Profession".

The article examines the emergence of standards of professional judgement in a government organization.
"Professions have been traditionally understood as an alternative way of organizing work that stands in opposition to the corporate or bureaucratic organizational form. Increasingly, however, corporations are seen to be the source of new forms of expert knowledge and occupational categories. Yet we have little understanding of how expert judgement forms and is legitimated inside a large organization."
