Vertauskuvat osana maanalaisia poliittisia lentolehtiä sortovuosina 1899-1903

2012

Tutkimuksessa analysoidaan Suomessa ensimmäisellä sortokaudella ilmestyneiden maanalaisten lentolehtien sisältämää vertauskuvallisuutta. Työn alkuperäislähteinä on käytetty poliittisen funktion omaavia lentolehtiä, pienpainatteita. Lentolehdet olivat luonteeltaan venäläisvastaisia ja niissä sortokauden oikeustaistelua edustaneet rintamat kävivät kiivasta kamppailua keskenään siitä, miten helmikuun manifestin mukanaan tuomiin venäläisiin asetuksiin oli suhtauduttava. Viholliskuvaus ja isänmaallinen paatos kulkevat työssäni rinta rinnan punaisena lankana, limittäisinä diskursseina. Tutkimusote on laadullinen ja siinä määrin aatehistoriallinen, että tavoitteena on etsiä vertauskuvien takaa Suo…

2017

Climate change is the biggest challenge humanity has ever faced and there is no doubt that human activities are the main cause. One activity that has received much attention in this discussion is air transportation.

Corporate storytelling and the idea of Latin America

2021

The aim of this article is contributing to a great variety of theoretical perspectives and empirical settings to generate cumulative evidence about the influence of historical legacies and organisational ability for managing the past. In a continuation of critical perspectives that challenges the dominance of Anglo-Saxon onto-epistemologies in management and organisation studies (MOS), we conducted an empirical study on a multinational airline company whose past successes depended on the North/South, Anglo/Latin American borderlands. We analysed the grand narratives of Pan American Airways' (PAA) corporate archival material to determine its dominant discourses about people from Latin Americ…

The significance of environmental responsibility on airline customers' intention to purchase

2015

Operating in an energy intensive industry, airlines’ environmental performance is under constant scrutiny of the regulators and authorities. By contrast, it seems that not many airlines have considered gaining competitive advantage in by differentiating as an environmentally responsible carrier. The commissioning company for this Master’s Thesis was Finnair, and the intention of this study was to find out whether factors related to environmental responsibility affect Swedish airline passengers’ intentions to purchase from an airline. In addition, the study intended to offer Finnair suggestions for a suitable sustainability marketing-mix that could be used to target the intended consumer seg…

Pragmaattisen porvarin myyttiset luomukset

2016

Valtionyhtiöihin liitetään usein mielikuvia, jotka professori Markku Kuisman mukaan sopivat lähinnä agitaation ja propagandan välineeksi, mutta joista ei ole juuri hyötyä käytännön ongelmanratkaisulle. Valtionyhtiöitä pidetään automaattisesti tehottomina. Historia antaa kuitenkin täysin toisen kuvan. Kirjana Valtion yhtiöt jatkaa Kuisman edellisen, Suomen pahimmat bisnesmokat (yhdessä Pekka Seppäsen kanssa), linjoilla. Se on suurelle yleisölle tarkoitettu tietokirja, joka tarjoaa historiallista faktaa ja ottaa reippaasti kantaa. nonPeerReviewed

2013

L'illuminazione artificiale deve rientrare a pieno titolo nelle competenze di quanti siano impegnati ad affrontare la questione della valorizzazione dei siti archeologici, specialmente nell’area mediterranea. Negli ultimi decenni, infatti, abbiamo assistito a una progressiva apertura e proiezione verso il mondo esterno di quelli che possiamo definire i “luoghi della memoria”. Artificial lighting needs to return with full titles in the expertize of those committed to tackle the issue of enriching archeological sites, especially in the mediterranean area. As a matter of fact, in the last ten years, we have aided an openminded progression towards the external world of those who we can call “pl…
