Through their self-presentation on social media, political leaders can either reinforce or challenge existing gender stereotypes, influencing public attitudes toward gender norms. This makes it relevant to investigate these self-presentations. This study, written by Melanie Magin, Joerg Hassler, Anders Olof Larsson and Eli Skogerbø, analysed the official Facebook and Instagram pages of 18 political leaders during the 2021 national election campaigns in Germany and Norway.

Surprisingly, no strong evidence of gendered self-presentations was found in either country, suggesting that successful politicians may navigate the delicate balance between masculine and feminine gender expectations.

🗨️ "This study calls for further comparative research, including investigations of lower-profile politicians and countries with varying degrees of gender equality", says Melanie Magin.

Trustworthiness: Public reactions to COVID-19 crisis communication 01/10/2024

In our recently published article co-authored with Øyvind Ihlen, Jens Kjeldsen and Anja Vranic, – open access of course –, we analyze public reactions to COVID-19 policies in Scandinavia. We asked how people assessed the trustworthiness of authorities, and how they discussed reasons for complying with regulations and recommendations. Our findings suggest that the trustworthiness of experts and leaders was continually negotiated, manufactured, and renegotiated, producing critical and conditional trust. You find it here:

Nordic Talks: The Value of a Free Press - The Australia Institute 11/02/2023

Below is a link to the webinar on Nordic Talks: The Value of a Free Press, 2 February 2023.

Norway is number one the World Press Freedom Index, while Australia dropped 14 places in 2022 due in part to its highly concentrated media landscape.

This webinar, the second of our special Nordic Talks webinar series, will explore how Norway’s targeted ‘press support’ subsidies could help Australia to achieve greater diversity in its highly concentrated media landscape and improve its protections for public interest journalism. And what can Norway learn from Australia’s world-leading News Media Bargaining Code about regulating Big Tech platforms such as Google and Facebook?

Join Professor Eli Skogerbø from the University of Oslo, and Dr Maria Rae of Deakin University for a fascinating discussion hosted by deputy director Ebony Bennett for the Nordic Policy Centre at the Australia Institute, as part of Nordic Talks. org.au/event/nordic-talks-the-value-of-a-free-press/
