The first step of the project was the conduction of separated systematic reviews of the characteristics and applicability to critically ill, adult patients outside classical populations at ri…
‘We are all responsible now’: Governmentality and responsibilized subjects in corporate social responsibility
2014
The corporate social responsibility promise is a fascinating one: companies are able and willing to regulate themselves, and self-regulation is manifested in collaborative efforts that promote individual well-being. Yet, this macro-level promise has a silenced flip side in organizational contexts. We argue that corporate social responsibility has diffused the idea of employee responsibilization into organizational environments, so it entails a dual role for employees: employees become both the objects and the subjects of corporate social responsibility. The primary aim of this article is thus to develop a theoretical understanding that acknowledges the role of individual members of the org…
Transformative Authorship Through Critical Dialogue : Concepts, Theory, and Practice
2021
This conceptual article deals with components and concepts of transformative learning, emphasizing the organization-level perspective on critical reflection. The discussion leans on the concept of transformative authorship and it is argued that it enables authoring processes through which professionals can recognize and recreate their routinized work practices. The aim of the research is to explore how professional experiences are integrated with reflexive, theoretical knowledge through critical dialogue. The authoring process of transformative authorship is illustrated with two complementary case studies from postgraduate health care education. In both cases, the learning tasks were desig…

Retorica e discorso politico
2005
Nell'ambito dei discorsi specialistici, il political discourse si pone come uno dei più interessanti sotto il profilo della retorica e della discourse analysis. La comprensione e interpretazione di un corpus di discorsi politici, inclusi nel presente lavoro monografico, attraverso gli strumenti teorici della Rhetorical Analysis e Critical Discourse Analysis mette in luce le ragioni, motivazioni e strategie che stanno alla base di precise sceltelessico-grammaticali, terminologiche, e semantiche degli autori dei political speeches. I risultati ottenuti sono quindi interpretati e valutati sulla base dell'importante relazione fra testo (nel caso specifico il discorso politico) e il contesto ent…

Broilerikulttuuri : lihateollisuuden kanat suomenkielisessä proosassa ja sarjakuvassa vuosina 1969–2019
2023
Väitöstutkimuksessani tarkastelen broilerikanojen kuvauksia vuosina 1969–2019 julkaistuissa suomenkielisissä romaaneissa, novelleissa ja sarjakuvissa. Kysyn, miten broilerintuotantoa ja siinä eläviä kanoja sekä kuolleita broilereita kuvataan suomenkielisessä kirjallisuudessa. Tutkimukseni tavoitteena on tuottaa tietoa broilereista kirjallisuudessa ja kehittää välineitä tuotantoeläinten ja teollisen eläintuotannon tutkimiseen kirjallisuudentutkimuksen alueella. Broilerina kasvatettu kana on maailman yleisin lintu ja yleisin selkärankainen tuotantoeläin. Muun muassa ympäristö- ja kulttuurivaikutustensa vuoksi broilerintuotanto koskettaa lähes jokaista ihmistä riippumatta siitä, syövätkö he br…
La investigación sociocrítica en la educación física
2012
La investigación socialmente crítica en la educación física, aquélla que se realiza con el propósito de contribuir al cambio y la transformación social, se ha visto reconocida durante la última década.

Se repasan las principales contribuciones de los inicios y del periodo de internacionalización que vivió este tipo de investigaciones, así como las principales orientaciones y áreas temáticas de interés. También se trazan los principales retos y perspectivas metodológicas y temáticas de futuro. El artículo final…
Towards a resilience management guideline — Cities as a starting point for societal resilience
2019
Unexpected crises and risks affect the urban population. Critical infrastructure dependency, climate change and social dynamics have captured the attention of city decision makers across different disciplines, sectors, and scales. Addressing these challenges mandates an increase in resilience. This article presents the development of the novel European Resilience Management Guideline (ERMG) developed by the European H2020 Smart Mature Resilience (SMR) project. It encompasses five supporting tools for city resilience. The purpose of this article is threefold. First, it describes the extensive co-creation methods used to establish, validate and test the five ERMG tools as collaborations among…
Distribution, ecology and conservation status of Dionysia involucrata Zaprjag., an endangered endemic of Hissar Mts (Tajikistan, Middle Asia)
2014
<em>Dionysia involucrata</em> Zaprjag. (Primulaceae) is known as critically endangered endemic species of Hissar Mountains in Tajikistan. It is reported from few localities mainly in Varzob River valley and its tributaries. The species inhabits steep or overhanging faces of granite rocks in narrow river gorges. During the research all known populations of <em>D. involucrata</em> were examined in respect of the habitat conditions and species composition of vegetation plots. We analyzed the population extent of the species in its range in Tajikistan and the main threats in order to assess its conservation status. The detrended correspondence analysis was performed on a…
