Coordinating action in technology-supported shared tasks: Virtual pointing as a situated practice for mobilizing a response
2021
Drawing on recordings of remote screen-based work meetings in Finland, this conversation analytic study investigates interactive properties of mouse cursor movements in technology-mediated shared tasks. The article illustrates how participants rely on features afforded by the input device in ways that divert from its pre-designed functions to accomplish virtual pointing gestures. These gestures serve as an organizational resource in the precursory phase of action, i.e. when a next on-screen action is observably made relevant. In this sequential environment, pointing by means of the tool is a collaborative resource: an embodied practice for sustaining co-orientation and advancing the sequent…
Obraz "Tragedii Górnośląskiej" we współczesnych reportażach
2017
Po 1989 roku rozpoczął się w Polsce proces włączania w pamięć publiczną wydarzeń określanych mianem „Tragedii Górnośląskiej”, funkcjonujących wcześniej głównie w rodzinnych i lokalnych narracjach (służba Ślązaków w Wehrmachcie, wejście Armii Czerwonej na Śląsk, powojenne deportacje Ślązaków do ZSRR, obozy pracy dla przewidzianych do wysiedlenia do Niemiec mieszkańców Śląska). Ważną rolę w ujawnianiu tych tragicznych wydarzeń odgrywają dziennikarze i publicyści, autorzy reportaży historycznych, którzy docierają do świadków minionych wydarzeń i starają się wyjaśnić ukrywane do tej pory fakty. Autorka analizuje reportaże literackie, radiowe i telewizyjne podejmujące problematykę represji i zbr…
Mathematical monuments in Finland
2021
With “mathematical monuments” we mean either monuments for famous mathematicians and their achievements or works of art representing mathematical objects in public places. We present a panoply of such monuments in Finland for the purposes of the mathematical tourist visiting our country. As we are interested in symbolic representations of science, we take a broad view of the notion of “monument” and take into account also some minor artefacts, such as portraits, medals and stamps, and other semiotic signs, such as street names and commemorative plates, illustrating some highlights of the history of mathematics in Finland.

The 18th-century traditions of representation in a new age of revolution : History politics in the Swedish and Finnish parliaments, 1917−1919
2014
What happened to shared historical experiences in the discursive processes of constitutional reform in Sweden and Finland? This article examines the use of 18th-century history in early 20th-century politics. Building on a long-term survey of Swedish and Finnish estate and parliamentary debates, it analyses the political implications of differing national historiographies in the two successor states of the 18th-century Swedish realm, focusing on how the ancient past and collective (and often selective) memories of the Age of Absolutism, the Age of Liberty and the Gustavian Age were used by parliamentarians in constitutional debates. The analysis demonstrates how the Finnish polity continued…

Images manquantes et expériences indicibles dans les films documentaires de Carolina Astudillo
2021
International audience; L’œuvre documentaire de la réalisatrice hispano-chilienne Carolina Astudillo se construit autour de deux axes thématiques : la mémoire historique et la mémoire des femmes. Ses courts et longs métrages cherchent à combler des vides, à montrer des visages et à raconter des histoires absentes de l’histoire officielle. Ce faisant, la cinéaste chilienne réfléchit aussi aux difficultés de construire un récit historique conditionné par le contexte politique (les dictatures chilienne et espagnole), le patriarcat et la classe sociale, des éléments qui vont déterminer des expériences personnelles qui deviennent indicibles. Comment rendre compte de l’expérience de la torture ? …

Lines of development in social research on disability in Finland between the years 1970–2010
2013
This article reviews the development of social research on disability conducted in Finland during the 40-year period from 1970 until 2010. The main focus is the connection of the research with the socioeconomic development of the country. The review starts from the emergence of a new disability service paradigm during the late 1960s. This new paradigm centred around the concept of rehabilitation, and had its roots in the birth of a postmodern welfare state during the same decade. The second shift began during the 1980s and was characterized by the precedence of human rights issues. Both of these changes paralleled international developments, but equally had their roots in the Finnish post-w…
