2021
The particularly broad and complex issue of the protection of disabled people in the Italian and English legal systems in this work is tackled by the comparative method, benefiting the research for the help of the categories of legislative and jurisprudential formants who play an apical role within their respective systems of sources of production of law.

Wii-bändi : designing an expressive digital musical interface for therapeutic use with disabled people in a group setting
2011

Koulutuksen tasa-arvon muuttuvat merkitykset: Kasvatussosiologian vuosikirja 1
2016
Koulutuskysymysten ymmärtäminen edellyttää yhteiskuntatieteellistä ymmärrystä, kun koulutus kytkeytyy yhä tiiviimmin talouteen, elinkeino- ja työvoimapolitiikkaan sekä väestöjen ja osaamisen hallintaan. Kasvatus- ja koulutussosiologinen tutkimus on Suomessa vahvistunut 1980-luvulta lähtien merkittävästi. Kasvatussosiologiselle ymmärrykselle on tilausta, joskin koulutuspolitiikkaa tehdään paljolti tutkimustuloksista piittaamatta, mikä sekin on sosiologisesti kiinnostava ja yhteiskuntatieteellistä analyysia kaipaava asia! Sosiologisen koulutustutkimuksen vahvistuminen näkyy hyvin kotimaisten tieteellisten konferenssien esitelmätarjonnassa. Suomessa järjestetään vuosittain useita tieteellisiä …

Sosiaalipalveluiden työntekijöiden ja vammaisten asiakkaiden vuorovaikutuksen diskurssit asiakkaiden blogikeskusteluissa
2018
Tämän tutkimuksen tavoitteena oli tunnistaa vammaisten ihmisten käyttämien sosiaalipalveluiden asiakasvuorovaikutukseen liittyviä diskursseja, jotka ilmenevät asiakkaiden keskusteluissa sosiaalisessa mediassa. Keskusteluista analysoitiin, kuinka sosiaalipalveluiden asiakkaat representoivat asiakkaan ja sosiaalipalveluiden työntekijän ja kuinka keskusteluissa representoidaan asiakas-työntekijävuorovaikutusta. Blogikirjoituksia analysoitiin käyttämällä diskurssianalyysia. Aineistosta rakentui kolme erilaista diskurssia, jotka tunnistettiin analysoimalla representoituja identiteettejä ja erilaisten vuorovaikutustilanteiden ja -suhteiden kuvauksia; 1) kansalaisdiskurssiksi, 2) sortamisdiskurssi…

2016
Mejorar la calidad de vida de las personas con Discapacidad Intelectual es un objetivo prioritario desde la implantación de la Ley de Promoción de la Autonomía Personal y Atención a las personas en situación de dependencia. Los profesionales y los propios usuarios no siempre coinciden en la valoración que tienen acerca de las diferentes dimensiones de que consta el constructo.
