N2 - In this introduction, we describe the cornerstones of the knowledge communication approach to the study of the communication of experts and of expertise in a broad sense as developed at Aarhus University and Aalborg University since 2004 (Anesa & Fage-Butler, 2016; Fage-Butler & Anesa, 2016; Kastberg, 2007, 2010, 2019; Engberg, 2016, 2020; Porup Thomasen, 2015). The idea was and is to develop an open framework built on the following three pillars: expert knowledge is seen as constructed through communication, it is empirically present in ways that reflect conditions of human cognition and it is expressed in a broad range of forms and formats that are textual in a broad sense and contextually situated. We will discuss these three pillars in the following sections and follow this by presenting the different contributions to the volume.
