For the paper itself: 1) To analyze the concept of the security as it is used by PET, Haldor Topsøe and our 'response' in the form of written reports ]]> 2021-11-29 16:01:29 UTC https://padlet.com/thomasstromstad/kkkq0dirwy1cdox/wish/1918294642 RQ: How and why do organizations conceptualize security define security as they do, and how limited is students' power to challenge these concepts? thomasstromstad https://padlet.com/thomasstromstad/kkkq0dirwy1cdox/wish/1918295112 Secondary questions:
- Do we accept or challenge concepts?
- Why or why not?
- What limits or enables us in doing so?
- What are the extents of organizations' and students' agencies?
- What are the implications of these dynamics for courses of action for organizations and students]]> 2021-11-29 16:01:41 UTC https://padlet.com/thomasstromstad/kkkq0dirwy1cdox/wish/1918295112 Analytical strategy thomasstromstad https://padlet.com/thomasstromstad/kkkq0dirwy1cdox/wish/1918295324 Conceptual analysis drawing on Koselleck, Skinner and Foucault.

- Which 'possibilities' does this leave students with? Are they constrained?
- Reports as 'strategic moments'
- What do our reports tell us about the power of discourse and relations of power and knowledge
- Operational categories: inner/outer, above/below. Where the hell are we situated in this and how stuck are we? Use of concepts might reveal.....]]> 2021-11-29 16:01:46 UTC https://padlet.com/thomasstromstad/kkkq0dirwy1cdox/wish/1918295324 Tentative Results thomasstromstad https://padlet.com/thomasstromstad/kkkq0dirwy1cdox/wish/1918295457 - We "lose" strategic moments and largely adhere to organizational conceptualizations of security. But why? (jobs, social desirability, intra-group disagreement, the supreme power of concepts?)
- We conform to organizations' patterns of discourse. Are we pawns on their chessboards, victims of broader discursive structures or cowardly/self-interested?
- Failing to challenge the concept of security contributes to existing relations of power. Despite existing alternative definitions they fail to materialize in presentations and our reports.]]> 2021-11-29 16:01:50 UTC https://padlet.com/thomasstromstad/kkkq0dirwy1cdox/wish/1918295457 Conclusion thomasstromstad https://padlet.com/thomasstromstad/kkkq0dirwy1cdox/wish/1918296045 Concepts wield power... we are limited in our ability to challenge them, but perhaps we can try :D ]]> 2021-11-29 16:02:02 UTC https://padlet.com/thomasstromstad/kkkq0dirwy1cdox/wish/1918296045 References thomasstromstad https://padlet.com/thomasstromstad/kkkq0dirwy1cdox/wish/1918296249 Skinner, Quentin (2002) Visions of Politics: regarding method, Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, chapters 1+5. pp. 1-7, 90-102 (18 pages)
