This paper presents a theoretical analysis of the neoliberal production of anxiety in academic faculty members in universities in Northern Europe. The paper focuses on neoliberalization as it is instantiated through audit and ranking systems designed to produce academia as a space of economic efficiency and intensifying competition. We suggest that powerful forms of competition and ranking of academic performance have been developed in Northern Europe. These systems are differentiated and differentiating, and they serve to both index and facilitate the neoliberalization of the academy.  Moreover, these audit and ranking systems produce an ongoing sense of anxiety among
academic workers.  We argue that neoliberalism in the academy is part of a wider system of anxiety production arising as part of the so-called ‘soft governance’ of everything, including life itself, in contemporary late liberalism.

Nýlega komu fréttir af því að Háskóli Íslands hefði faerst upp í 222. saeti á alþjóðlegum samanburðarlista háskóla í heiminum (The Times Higher Education World University Rankings). Rektor Háskóla Íslands fagnaði þessu sérstaklega og sagði: " Niðurstaðan er mikil viðurkenning fyrir alla þá sem starfa hér?… " Faerslan frá saetum 251 til 275 þótti fréttnaem og sérstakt fagnaðarefni. Sambaerilegan metnað má finna í háskólum um víða veröld. Í háskólanum í Bresku-Kólumbíu lýsti nýráðinn rektor því yfir að hann aetlaði sér að skólinn yrði meðal tíu efstu í heiminum á slíkum samanburðarlista. Stjórnvöld í Danmörku settu sér nýlega það markmið að hafa í það minnsta einn háskóla í landinu á meðal tíu bestu í heiminum. Líkt og orð rektors bera með sér byggja samanburðarlistarnir á maelingum á frammistöðu starfsfólks skólanna, nokkuð sem hér á landi er kallað vinnumatskerfi og allir opinberir háskólar hafa sammaelst um. Greinar sem háskólakennarar birta, fyrirlestrar sem þeir halda, baekur sem eru skrifaðar og önnur " framleiðsla " þeirra er þannig talin til stiga. Þetta vinnumatskerfi við íslenska háskóla á sér hliðstaeðu í háskólum Norður-Evrópu og víðar. Vinnumatskerfið íslenska á raetur í kjarasamningum kennara við ríkið en er nú að verða birtingarmynd samkeppnisvaeðingar háskóla. Þessi samkeppnisvaeðing er ein þriggja meiriháttar breytinga sem eru að eiga sér stað í háskólum í Norður-Evrópu í það minnsta. Hinar snúa að ójöfnuði og breyttum skilningi á háskólafólki. Forsenda samkeppni er ójöfnuður og þannig verður nú að skilgreina einn háskóla sem verri og annan sem betri, byggt á samraemdu mati þeirra í millum. Sama gildir um starfsfólk háskólanna. Það er svo lagt á sömu maelistiku og verður ekki fólk í öllum sínum fjölbreytileika, heldur mannauður sem annaðhvort leggur til markmiða kerfisins eða ekki. Maelanlegur mannauður háskóla keppir þannig á alþjóðlegu markaðstorgi háskóla á heimsvísu. Þessi samkeppnisvaeðing er birtingarmynd tiltekinnar rökvísi sem kennd er við nýfrjálshyggju í seinni tíð. Vinnumatskerfið er að verða grunnur að markaði þar sem háskólar keppa og á sama tíma er kerfið taekið til að skilja markaðinn. Afleiðingar þessa eru hins vegar mun víðtaekari en bara einhver stigakeppni milli háskóla. Kvíði meðal starfsfólks Hinum maelanlega mannauði háskóla er ráðstafað til að maeta markmiðum þess kerfis sem myndar skilyrði markaðarins. Þannig leggur vinnumatskerfið grunn að samkeppni milli starfsfólks háskóla, þar sem þeim er hyglað sem þjóna markmiðum kerfisins en aðrir standa stöðugt verr að vígi. Markmið um birtingar í tilteknum ritum, markmið um fé úr samkeppnissjóðum og markmið um stöðu skóla í samanburði við aðra stýra vinnu háskólafólks í sífellt meiri maeli, en ofan í kaupið baetist að þessi markmið reynast stöðugt faeranleg. Það er þegar fleiri ná að maeta markinu er það faert haerra eða lengra. Almennt þýðir þetta vaxandi kvíða meðal starfsfólks. Kvíða sem birtist sérstaklega hjá þeim sem yngri eru í kerfinu og eru að reyna að skapa sér starfsvettvang. Það sem meira er, þá skapar þessi samkeppnisvaeðing starfsmenningu sem snýst um stundarhag. Markmiðin eru maeld árlega og háskólafólk leitar eftir farvegi fyrir sem flest stig til að leggja til eigin stigastöðu og síns háskóla. Þar sem sú maeling þarf að vera alþjóðleg tapast t.d. þekking sem snýr að íslensku samfélagi eða henni er aevinlega speglað í viðmiðum annarra þjóða, þó umfram allt enskum. Þekking sem þannig hefur alþjóðlegt skiptagildi grefur því undan háskóla sem samfélagi þekkingarsköpunar. Umhyggja fyrir nemendum og Lawrence D. Berg, prófessor við háskólann í bresku Kólumbíu, Edward H. Huijbens, prófessor við HA, Henrik Gutzon Larsen, dósent við háskólann í Lundi.

In Canada, cultural safety is emerging as a theoretical and practice lens to orient health care services to meet the needs of Aboriginal people. Evidence suggests Aboriginal peoples’ encounters with health care are commonly negative, and there is concern that these experiences can contribute to further adverse health outcomes. In this article, we report findings based on participatory action research drawing on Indigenous methods. Our project goal was to interrogate practices within one hospital to see whether and how cultural safety for Aboriginal patients could be improved. Interviews with Aboriginal patients who had accessed hospital services were conducted and responses were collated into narrative summaries. Using interlocking analysis, findings revealed a number of processes operating to produce adverse health outcomes. One significant outcome is the production of structural violence that reproduces experiences of institutional trauma. Positive culturally safe experiences, less reported, were described as interpersonal interactions with feelings visibility and therefore, treatment as a “human being”.
