Trendien seuraajia vai henkisen hyvinvoinnin etsijöitä? : diskurssianalyysi eklektisestä uskonnollisuudesta suomalaisissa lehtikirjoituksissa

2010

Tutkielmani tarkoituksena on selvittää, millainen kuva eklektiseksi uskonnollisuudeksi kutsutusta ilmiöstä muodostuu suomalaisten sanoma- ja aikakauslehtien sivuilla. Analyysimenetelmänä olen käyttänyt diskurssianalyysia. Tutkimuksen aineisto koostuu vuosina 2000–2007 ilmestyneistä lehtiartikkeleista. Artikkeleita on yhteensä 63 kappaletta, ja ne on koottu seitsemästä suomalaisesta lehdestä. Uskonnon sosiologisen tutkimuksen perinne ulottuu aina sosiologian klassikoihin, kuten Max Weberiin ja Émile Durkheimiin saakka. Tutkielmani teoreettinen tausta koostuukin sekä aikaisemmasta uskontososiologisesta tutkimuksesta että kuluttamiseen, yksilöllistymiseen ja postmodernisaatioon liittyvistä aja…

Klaaniuskonto islam

2020

Islam sai alkunsa arabipaimentolaisten perustamassa Lähi-idän jättivaltakunnassa yli tuhat vuotta sitten. Länsimaissa islam on koettu vieraaksi ja ei-rationaaliseksi opiksi. Islamin eri puolia yhdistävä järkiperäisyys on kuitenkin löydettävissä, kun islamia tarkastelee uskontososiologisesti eli suhteessa siihen yhteiskuntaan, jonka tarpeita se syntyi palvelemaan. nonPeerReviewed

The roles of achievement-related behaviours and parental beliefs in children´s mathematical performance

2003

This study aimed to investigate the developmental dynamics between children's mathematical performance, the task-focused versus task-avoidant behaviours they show in the classroom, and their parents' beliefs concerning their school competence. The mathematical performance of 111 six- to seven-year-old children was tested, and their task-focused versus task-avoidant behaviours were rated by their teachers four times during their first school year. Parents filled in questionnaires measuring their skill-specific and general beliefs about their children's school competencies at the beginning and at the end of the school year. The results showed that parents' beliefs in their children's general …

Worldviews and National Values in Swedish, Norwegian and Finnish Early Childhood Education and Care Curricula

2021

This paper examines how worldviews and national values are displayed in the national (Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC) curricula of Sweden, Finland and Norway. The specific interest is to investigate what similarities and differences there are between these three ECEC curricula with regard to the position of religions and other worldviews. ECEC is often the first societal arena for children to enter and to negotiate their personal values, worldviews, and memberships in relation to the values represented in the surrounding social context. Countries employ different policies for dealing with diversity. Home languages for example, are often supported whereas for home cultures and worl…

Pyhäpäivien vietto varhaismodernin ajan Savossa (vuoteen 1710)

2016

In this dissertation, I study the observance of holy days among the peasantry in the early modern province of Savo, located on the eastern periphery of the Swedish kingdom (today Eastern Finland). I examine the practices, norms and meanings related to the observance of holy days both within and outside the Church, and analyse the changes and continuities in the post-reformation period. As the main sources of the study, I use district court records and visitation records mainly from the period 1639–1712. I analyse the cases with a micro-historical perspective and an anthropological approach. The lived religion of the peasantry was constituted especially through practices that were connected …

Tiny Citizenship, Twisted Politics, and Christian Love in a Ugandan Church Choir

2022

In 1977, the Archbishop of the Church of Uganda, Janani Luwum, was killed under orders from President Idi Amin following his public criticism of Amin’s reign of terror. This article offers an ethnographic case study of a choir named in Luwum’s honour to extend existing research on the interrelations of Christianity, citizenship, and politics in contemporary Uganda. To do so, I draw a number of conceptual tools – tiny citizenship, authentic citizenship, twisted politics, and love – from work by and referencing Hannah Arendt, James Baldwin, and Gary Alan Fine. First, analyzing the choir’s participation in the national commemoration of Janani Luwum Day at Uganda’s State House in 2021, I argue …
