“…Some scholars have shown that transmedia stories from minority perspectives, such as the feminist point of view, are usually marginal compared to a more conservative focus (Kustritz 2022). In this respect, it is important that it is produced by a public service broadcaster, given that addressing minority issues lies at the centre of Public Service Media (PSM) efforts (Naerland and Dahl 2022). That is to say, making space for cultural diversity constitutes an important part of PSM missions, and this ideal is reflected in both EU and national broadcasting policies.…”

This paper analyses a transmedia universe featuring a web series revolving around interpersonal relations and gender issues, which was then expanded using a musical podcast and a live concert. The project aims to discover production and narrative development strategies that define a native transmedia production, and how it might be expanded to build stories around complex and multidimensional contemporary themes. An analysis model is proposed to identify the fundamental structural characteristics of the transmedia universe. The research is initially powered by a qualitative approach to ethnographic fieldwork by means of participant observation, and subsequently, the analysis of the interrelationship between the elements that make up the transmedia system. The results show the planning behind constructing transmedia storytelling that intertwines fiction and reality to assist in understanding complex and multidimensional topics such as gender identity or intergenerational relations. The conclusions show that the type of transmedia construction being presented and the position of the audio in that universe is motivated by reinforcing the creation of content that is covered in fiction, but with particular relevance in the real world.

“…For example, minority groups and minority languages have been given a place in the public service media in the Nordic countries, which they largely lack in the commercial media system. Not only are public service media expected to cater for the interests of minorities, through for example inclusion and representation, but can also, as shown by Naerland and Dahl (2022) following the capabilities approach, be enabling in some capacities. Although this space has not always been guaranteed (Christensen, 2001), under the best circumstances it means that the public service media can serve as a platform for community building and identity construction for these groups.…”

What does media welfare mean from a normative perspective? The notion of media welfare and “the media welfare state” has mainly been used descriptively, to depict the particular way in which the media are organized in the Nordic welfare states. In this article, we explore media welfare from a normative perspective. Our intention is to open up a discussion about the normative and political implications of the notion of media welfare and to bring the concept into the contemporary discussion on normative perspectives regarding the media.
