Vammaisuuden sukupuolittuneet ja sortavat diskurssit : yhteiskunnallis-diskursiivinen näkökulma vammaisuuteen
2007
Väitöstyössään Marjo-Riitta Reinikainen tutkii kriittisellä otteella tavanomaista arkista puhetta vammaisuudesta. Huomion kohteena ovat vammaisuudelle ja vammaisena olemiselle teksteissä annetut merkitykset, erityisesti näiden sukupuolittuneet sekä vammaisten sortoa ja syrjintää tuottavat ja ylläpitävät muodot. Reinikaisen tutkimissa teksteissä vammainen mies kuvataan usein oletettujen positiivisten ominaisuuksiensa, kykyjensä ja saavutustensa kautta, kun taas vammainen nainen kuvataan pikemminkin menetystensä ja puutteidensa kautta. – Kun vammaispuhetta tarkastellaan sukupuolinäkökulmasta, käsitykset vammaisuudesta ja vammaisena olemisesta näyttäytyvät selvästi sukupuolittuneina. Tosin san…
The many faces of online community : Images and imaginings of togetherness on Imgur
2018
This article discusses the meaning and function of “community” as a discourse on the image-sharing website Imgur. The analysis shows that the community term has many meanings and serves as a shorthand for a wide variety of social practices, and these meanings are shaped by the experiences of social action leading to the use of the term. Based on ethnographic data, nexus analysis provides an understanding of how the interactions related to community on the site come to take place the way they do. In conceiving of these interactions as mediated discourse, the article provides a fresh approach to the long-established academic discussion on the definition of community, suggesting a new concepti…
New Health Advice: Health Forum Sites as a Change of Discourse Frame, from Doctor-to-Patient to User-to-User
2016
Health forum communities form support groups responding to the need for information. Participants in these communities nd a space in which they share experiences and feelings, and are able to recount their success stories and failures according to a ‘gather, share and learn’ paradigm. One of the main worries concerning these spaces has been the unmonitored information that is provided by users who do not/ cannot take responsibility for what they say. Previous studies were intended to explore how individuals with health issues use health-related online communities to access information and support. This research, on the other hand, examines the extent to which health advice may be conversati…
Coding emotions in computer-mediated communication: the example of YouTube comments
2018
Computer-mediated communication (CMC) is essentially text-based. This is generally said to result in a “paucity of paralinguistic and non-linguistic cues” (Bieswanger, 2013: 468), but it is also considered to be the main reason for the development of other characteristic non-verbal modalities, such as emoticons and emoji. How are, then, emotions expressed in such a specific context? Are verbal modalities as limited as they are said to be? Do non-verbal modalities complete or replace them? This paper will try to answer those questions using discourse analysis tools applied to a sample of comments on a YouTube video.
Las formas cotidianas de la felicidad y sus mandatos: Pedagogías del pensamiento positivo, trabajo docente y subjetividad en el neoliberalismo contem…
2020
Positive thinking constitutes one of the great traditions that lead to the idea of the subject as an entrepreneur of himself and is perhaps one of the best that has successfully condensed cultural, political, social and pedagogical processes linked to reflection on well-being in this historical time. The teaching work is especially moved by the pregnancy of these perspectives that challenge the pedagogical field and the education workers as ?agents of change, or at least one more school available to give the discussion on well-being and happiness (yours and the students?) is celebrated and encouraged. In this article, I intend to understand what is being built as pedagogical discourses abou…
Oral Discourse In Scientific Research
2018
This chapter discusses the role and characteristics of oral discourse in scientific research, with “scientific” understood in a broad sense, covering any discipline of research. After introducing corpora of oral academic discourse, genre-specific characteristics of PhD defences, research group meetings, colloquia, and conference presentations are discussed from a discoursal point of view. In scientific research, oral discourse plays a fundamental role in the social construction of knowledge. Its analysis offers valuable insights into the sociology of scientific communities. peerReviewed
Kaiken keskellä : keskijohto strategisen muutoksen tekijänä ja kokijana
2018
This research focuses on the actions and perceptions of the middle managers during a strategic change. Over the years, strategic change and middle managers have been studied from various points of view. The importance of middle managers and their roles and actions have been argued both for and against. Most of the recent research emphasises the middle managers’ importance in strategic organizational change as mediators between the change initiators and the change recipients. However, there is less research on middle managers’ and subordinates’ sensemaking processes during a strategic organizational change, especially when identity, culture, artefacts, emotions and change resistance are cons…
Geographic imagination and urban-rural binary in online discourses related to the capital region of Finland : A corpus onomastic study of Helsinki, V…
2023
The article focuses on digital discourses related to Helsinki, Espoo and Vantaa, the three biggest municipalities in Finland’s capital region. The data consist of texts from the discussion forum of Suomi24 that was analysed to find out how forum users produce socio-spatial distinctions by categorizing some groups as ‘others’ thus differentiating in-groups and out-groups. The analysis used methods of comprised corpus assisted discourse studies (CADS), including collocation analysis. The results show that discourses related both to native and non-native Helsinkians and to those living in the capital region in contrast to those living elsewhere in Finland are common and the juxtapositions betw…
„Miasto to jak mieszkanie. Nasze”. Powojenne strategie oswajania miast Ziem Zachodnich i Północnych na przykładzie Wrocławia
2018
Treść artykułu prezentuje trzy istotne zagadnienia. Pierwszym z nich jest refleksja nad praktykami zamieszkiwania (dwelling) miasta – pojęcia rozszerzającego zakres ba- dań nad przestrzenią miejską o kategorie związane z socjologią codzienności – przede wszystkim dotyczącego materialnego środowiska życia ludzi widzianego z perspektywy dyskursów niedominujących. Drugim z zagadnień jest analiza strategii oswajania ob- cego kulturowo dziedzictwa materialnego Ziem Zachodnich i Północnych, za pomocą kategorii zamieszkiwania i na przykładzie wspomnień mieszkańców Wrocławia. Trzecim aspektem są pytania stanowiące punkt wyjścia dla przyszłych projektów badawczych au- torki, postawione w wyniku prze…
Sex and violence : the meanings and gendering of sex acts in the treatment groups for intimately violent heterosexual men
2012
Tämä tutkimus tarkastelee lähisuhteissaan väkivaltaisten miesten käsityksiä seksistä heteroseksuaalisen, monogamisen parisuhteen kontekstissa. Huomio kiinnittyi seksille annettuihin merkityksiin, väkivallan ja seksin erottamiseen tai yhdistämiseen sekä seksin sukupuolittamisen tapoihin hoitoryhmissä käydyissä keskusteluissa. Tutkimus paikantuu teoreettisesti postmodernin feminismin käsityksiin sukupuolesta ja seksuaalisuudesta. Aineistoa analysoitiin kriittisen diskurssianalyysin ja feministisen lukutavan keinoin. Tutkimusaineisto koostui vuosina 1996-2000 kokoontuneista lähisuhteissaan väkivaltaisten miesten ryhmistä, joita oli yhteensä 8. Näistä ryhmistä valikoitui istuntoja aineistoon 18…
