The Semantic Analytical Strategy and Diagnostics of Present

Abstract

My own work taking departure in systems theory has to do with contemporary conditions public management and its changes within the last 70 years. I am interesting in a topic likes ‘citizen contracts’ because they express a new management ambition regarding citizenship and because this concept put classical distinctions of the legal state at stake such as administration/citizen, administrative act/contract and public/private. I am interested in a topic like ‘internal contract’ because they reentry contract-relation into the organization and changes the rule of the game of political decisions making. And I am interested in public organized health games between parents within the context of public schools because they invite to a strange scene of communication where the participants never knows whether expectations are formed in the code of power, education or play. So basically I am interested in all the surprising folding of the forms of functional differentiation forming the possibilities and impossibilities of public management. Rather than studying the transformation from stratification to functional differentiation, I am interested in the present transformation within functional differentiation putting the premises of functional differentiation and formal organizing at stake.
