You have a Message from Illi! : The Mobile Diary in Researching Children’s Daily Experiences
2017
Thus far, daily diary studies have mostly focused on adults and adolescents, while only a few have researched young children. In this methodological article, we introduce and evaluate a mobile diary application, “You have a message from Illi”, designed to capture young, under-school-age children’s daily experiences at home and in day care, in the context of a 24 h economy where parents work nonstandard hours and child care is arranged accordingly. We also compare childrens’ mood ratings reported by both the children themselves and adults. Children recruited either from day care centers (N = 15) or day and night and care centers (N = 17) carried smartphones with them for 1 week and reported …

2022
Il contributo analizza il diverso approccio che negli studi domestici ed internazionali è stato utilizzato per affrontare il tema della tassazione dell'economia digitale: per un verso il cd. ring-fencing e cioè il tentativo di trovare soluzioni impositive specifiche e mirate alle peculiarità del fenomeno e, per altro verso, quello di considerare l'economia digitale al pari delle tradizionali forme economiche.

Imperfections in Our Future
2018
Abstract Our future is polarized and unpredictable and means progress as this regards the evolution of technology that may bring about the union between man and machine as far as the present technological environment is enlarging. But, until then we have to face imperfections that are synonymous with the problems that affect humanity: aggression against some states, conflicts that need to be settled, discrepancy between the rich and the poor, the positive and negative influences of the internet, CO2 emissions in developed countries, redirecting towards markets with lower risk potential, even the battle with death. And, unfortunately we have the alienation of the modern man in a breakable wo…

2022
Tutkimme ulkomaisten luonnonväriaineiden tuontia Suomeen 1790-luvun alusta 1850-luvun puoliväliin. Ajankohtaa voidaan luonnehtia murroskaudeksi väriaineiden käytön historiassa. Selvitämme mitä väriaineita Suomeen tuotiin, millaisia määriä, minneniitä tuotiin sekä mistä satamista väriainelastit olivat lähtöisin. Lähdeaineistomme perustan muodostavat Tanskan Juutinrauman tullitilit, joista on koostettu suomalaisia satamia koskeva tietokanta (FIN-STRO: 1560/1791–1856). Lähdepohjaa on täydennetty muulla tilastoaineistolla sekä laadullisella materiaalilla, kuten värjäysoppailla ja Kansalliskirjaston digitaalisella sanomalehtiarkistolla.

The development of the output during the last decades and the same time with growing population namely energy, raw material demands for industry and food have highlighted the conflict between man and nature, between the processes of social-economic development and natural resources with troubling consequences on the ecologic balance of the planet.

Of course that elaborating a new development model of the human soci…
