Tiimit muuttuvassa työelämässä
2014
Tutkimuksessa selvitettiin, miten tiimin jäsenet ovat kokeneet tiimien ja tiimityön muutokset sekä työelämän muutosten heijastumisen tiimityöhön. Tutkimus kohdistui eri aloilla työskenteleviin suomalaisiin, jotka ovat työskennelleet alallaan vähintään kymmenen vuotta. Laadullinen tutkimus toteutettiin avoimin haastatteluin, joihin osallistui yhteensä yksitoista miestä ja naista. Aineisto analysoitiin teemoittelemalla ja etsimällä aineistosta sekä tyypillisiä että tyypillisestä poikkeavia käsityksiä. Osoittautui, että työelämän koettiin muuttuneen monin tavoin; käsityksissä työn kuormittavuus, muutostahti, työntekijän asema, teknologiavälitteisyys, työn arvot ja työn fokus olivat jollain tav…
Pro Bono Publico? Demand for Military Spending Between the World Wars
2017
This article analyzes the demand for military spending in the 1920s and 1930s, based on variables arising from the international system and the selected countries. The main premise is that the military spending was an impure public good, implying that both public and private benefits drove the demand for this type of expenditure. Threats arising from the autocratic states in the 1930s increased these expenditures, and democracies overall tended to spend less. Moreover, the absence of clear international leadership by the USA or UK destabilized the international system and increased military spending, with alliances failing to produce a public good effect. Military spending resulted in joint…
Always in crisis, always a solution? : The Nordic model as a political and scholarly concept
2021
While campaigning for the 2016 US Democratic Party presidential nomination, Senator Bernie Sanders invoked the Nordic countries as a model for future politics. In a debate, he declared, ‘I think we should look to countries like Denmark, like Sweden and Norway, and learn from what they have accomplished for their working people.’1 Hailing the Nordic countries, especially Denmark, as an example of ‘democratic socialism’,2 Sanders’s vision engendered a heated debate, with political opponents critiquing the implied political agenda, the prime minister of Denmark protesting the idea of Denmark as a socialist country, and journalists and pundits presenting corrective views of the economic and soc…
Kirjoittamisen diskurssit lukion äidinkielen ja kirjallisuuden opetussuunnitelman perusteissa ja äidinkielen ylioppilaskokeen määräyksissä
2017
Artikkelissa tarkastellaan lukion opetussuunnitelman perusteissa 2003 sekä syksyllä 2012 annetuissa ylioppilaskokeen äidinkielen määräyksissä esiintyviä kirjoittamisen diskursseja. Opetusta ohjaavien dokumenttien analyysivälineenä on Ivaničin (2004) malli kirjoittamisen diskursseista: kirjoittamisessa voi olla kyse taidosta, luovuudesta tai prosessista, se voi olla tekstilajien tuottamista (genrediskurssi), sosiaalisten käytänteiden noudattamista tai sosiopoliittista toimintaa. Artikkelissa selvitetään, miten eri diskurssit näkyvät dokumenteissa, ovatko dokumenttien kirjoittamiskäsitykset keskenään samanlaisia sekä miten käytetty malli soveltuu äidinkielen opetusta ohjaavien dokumenttien an…
Is Broad the New Deep in Environmental Ethics? A Comparison of Broad Ecological Justice and Deep Ecology
2016
I argue in this article that a theory of broad ecological justice or the extended capabilities approach, an interesting approach in contemporary environmental ethics, shares many of its core ideas with deep ecology and Arne Næss’s ecosophy T. The similarities between these approaches include the ambition to address the roots of environmental problems, emphasis on recognition and the criticism of oppressive structures, and a systemic orientation. Acknowledging these similarities illustrates the contemporary value of the deep ecology movement. It also helps to develop the theory of broad ecological justice further, especially in terms of bridging the gap between movements and theoretical disc…

Intraocular pressure and central corneal thickness in an old French population: The MONTRACHET study
2013
Purpose: To describe the distribution of intraocular pressure (IOP) and central corneal thickness (CCT) in an old French population. Methods: About 9000 individuals 65 years and older were included in the 3C cohort study since 1999 in 3 French cities (Bordeaux, Dijon and Montpellier). In Dijon, an additional ophthalmic examination was performed 10 years after the initial inclusions to assess the relation between systemic age-related diseases and eye diseases in the MONTRACHET Study (Maculopathy Optic Nerve nuTRition neurovAsCular and HEarT diseases). In this population-based stuy a thorough eye examination and a questionnaire were undertaken in each participant. Intraocular pressure (IOP) w…
