In this article, we examine the discursive practices of (de)stigmatizing right-wing populist party leaders. We draw on a recent example from Finland by examining how the female presidential candidate of a right-wing populist party was portrayed in the Finnish media during the 2018 presidential campaign season. We examine the stigmatization by the press media and the stigma-management tactics used by the presidential candidate to resist stigmatization. The media representation of the right-wing party leader is highly tensioned, and the media positions her political leadership within the duality of charisma and stigma. In our analysis, we extend earlier literature by unveiling the emotional t…
Protection of Social Rights as a Permament Challenge for the European Union
2021
Social rights protection in the European Union has undergone significant development. Currently their protection is regulated by relevant treaty provisions and the Charter of Fundamental Rights (Charter), both of a primary law nature, as well as by the non-binding European Pillar of Social Rights (Pillar). The aim of the paper is the assessment of the social rights protection in the EU, and whether all social rights provided in the CFR have their counterparts in the EPSR, hence whether and in what way the EPSR assists the actual exercise of social rights provided by the CFR. Comparing the content of the above-mentioned legal instruments makes it possible to answer the question whether all s…
Nanotechnology Application Challenges: Nanomanagement, Nanorisks and Consumer Behaviour
2017
New emerging technologies are entering the society, which makes civil society the location for moral authority. Society is about the quality of human relationships; it is where people have to accept responsibility for the consequences of their actions; it is where the nano meets the micro and the micro meets the macro issues. Society belongs to all of us and everyone has his role to play. A new way of system thinking – nanothinking demonstrates technology trends from perfectness to non-regularity. The removal of current contradictions between regular and non-regular systems and the corresponding nanophenomena is the way to novel processes in the development of nanosciences and nanotechnolog…
Klemens Rzymski o sukcesji apostolskiej
2014
1910. anniversary of the death of Saint Clement of Rome, the third successor of Bishop of Rome, celebrated a few years ago († 101), became an opportunity to remind his teaching, which he left in the Epistle to the Corinthians, written by him. The content of this letter is an important witness of the emerging church organization. That, what was happening in Corinth and, without a doubt, in Rome, is one of the stages of the Church’s history of major importance. The contemporary situation related to the authority prompted the acceptance of the institutional proposal based on the Holy Scripture and the practice of the Apostles. Transferring saving mission “from hands to hands”, called apostolic…
Interrelation Between European Union Protection and National Protection
2014
In addition to registration requirements, registration procedure, and the protection of registered IGOs, namely PDOs and PGIs, as well as protected indications of origin (within the Aromatised Wines Regulation), the EU law on IGOs also includes the regulation of other aspects. Competence of state institutions of EU Member States to ensure the observance of the regulation of IGOs as it is provided in the EU law or interrelation with other EU legal acts relating to IGOs already discussed in Part II of this book should be mentioned among such aspects.
Moral panic, moral regulation and essentialization of identities: Discursive struggle over unethical business practices in the Finnish national media
2013
The study sheds light on the language of moral panic and moral regulation in the Finnish news media over a 9-year period on the subject of cartels and cartel agreements. What makes the case particularly interesting is that the object of the most explicit moral panic was the introduction of new laws (leniency programmes) designed to regulate illegal cartel behaviour. The main argument is that the construction of both moral regulation and moral panic in news media takes place through essentializing discursive claims that contribute to national identity construction. The study contributes to current literature on moral panics as ideologico-discursive phenomena and throws some light on the powe…
New European Union Law on Protecting European Union Classified Information
2017
Przedmiotem rozważań jest aktualna regulacja prawna Unii Europejskiej określająca zasady ochrony informacji niejawnych UE, która została zawarta w decyzji Rady 2013/488/UE. Odniesiono się przede wszystkim do definicji informacji niejawnych, ochrony, bezpieczeństwa: osobowego, fizycznego, przemysłowego, systemów teleinformatycznych, wymiany informacji niejawnych, przypadków naruszenia i narażenia na szwank bezpieczeństwa informacji niejawnych UE, a także organizacji bezpieczeństwa w Radzie. Ze względu na udział Rzeczpospolitej Polskiej w UE znajomość problematyki ochrony informacji niejawnych Unii ma ważne znaczenie praktyczne. Zwrócić przy tym należy uwagę na Krajową Władzę Bezpieczeństwa, …
Decision support for centralizing cargo at a Moroccan airport hub using stochastic multicriteria acceptability analysis
2010
The geographical location of Morocco places it at the heart of important sea, air, rail and motorway transport routes between four continents. In this study we evaluate different alternatives to centralize multimodal cargo at a Moroccan airport hub. The choice depends on different socio-economical criteria, the geographical location, and the environmental impacts. Some of the criteria can be measured quantitatively, while for others only qualitative assessment is feasible. Furthermore, significant uncertainty is present in both the criteria measurements and the preferences. We aided this decision process using Stochastic Multicriteria Acceptability Analysis (SMAA). SMAA is a method that all…
Fabra and the linguistic authority in the Valencian Country: the Philological Section of Institut d’Estudis Valencians (1937-1939)
2019
Davant la dificultat d’acceptar al País Valencià l’autoritat lingüística de l’IEC i la codificació de la llengua catalana, Fabra reconegué en almenys tres declaracions (1918, 1930 i 1937), que corresponia als escriptors valencians la tasca de depurar i de redreçar la llengua i admeté que la constitució d’un centre d’estudis filològics al País Valencià hi podria ajudar. No es pronuncià sobre les Normes de Castelló, però s’interessà per la seua aplicació i, com a president de l’IEC, mantingué una bona relació amb l’Institut d’Estudis Valencians (1937-1939), creat per Francesc Bosch i Morata a imitació de l’IEC. La creació de l’Institut d’Estudis Valencians (= IEV) fou una aspiració constant d…
The Double-Deviant Identity of the Mass-Foreigner and the Lack of Authority of the Crimmigrationist State
2019
Crimmigration has its breeding ground in dystopian and securitarian narratives. The anti-hero of these narratives is the mass-foreigner, a stereotyped version of the foreigner usually depicted, alternatively or cumulatively, as an enemy or as a parasite of host societies. But not only does crimmigration presuppose such narratives (and the deviant identity of the mass-foreigner, which is connected with them) as a source of legitimation, it also fuels these same narratives by providing them with an official sanction: by merging criminalization and irregularization on a legal level, it heavily contributes to making the social identity of mass-foreigners into a doubly deviant one. The overarchi…
