Language options and the role of English on Finnish banks' websites
2016
The websites of commercial banks may serve multiple functions, including the provision of promotional, informational and online transactional services. The choice of languages offered on the websites reflects the banks' communication and marketing strategy in targeting groups of clients. In addition, the way content is presented on multilingual sites can shed light on the financial institution's implicit language policy. In order to understand the role of English in Finnish banks' online representation, a linguistic landscape approach was applied and the multilingual pages of 10 commercial banks were analyzed. The first aim was to find out how design, content, structure and usability relate…
Śpiewana liturgia w Polsce w czasach papieża Franciszka. Pomiędzy muzyczno-liturgicznym prawodawstwem a duszpasterską codziennością
2020
The article discusses the broader issues of liturgical music, indicating tensions between musical and liturgical legislation and pastoral everyday life. An important part of the article is an attempt to express some hopes that can be associated with Pope Francis’ ministry and his new vision of pastoral care, which the Bishop of Rome defined in the Apostolic Exhortation Evangelii gaudium.
Temporizing and Essentializing the Enemy : A Logological Reading of Finnish Lutheran Clerical War Rhetoric
2015
This article looks at the shift between logical and temporal vocabularies, called by Kenneth Burke the temporizing of essence. It combines “logology” with a rhetorical analysis of how it was applied in a concrete historical situation as a means of persuasion. First, I discuss Burke’s logology, which is the theory underlying the idea of temporized essence. Second, I turn to the notion in relation to its two main forms, origins and fruition; third, Finnish clerical rhetoric during the Continuation War 1941–44 will be analyzed using ideas drawn on logology. peerReviewed
[177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE and [131I]MIBG Phenotypic Imaging-Based Therapy in Metastatic/Inoperable Pheochromocytomas and Paragangliomas: Comparative Result…
2022
PurposeThe aim of the study is to assess phenotypic imaging patterns and the response to treatment with [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE and/or [131I]MIBG in paragangliomas (PGLs) and pheochromocytomas (PHEOs), globally and according to the primary location.MethodsThis is a 17-patient retrospective observational study, with 9 cases treated with [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE and 8 with [131I]MIBG (37 total treatments). Functional imaging scans and treatment responses were studied in order to choose the best therapeutic option and to define the progression-free survival (PFS) and disease control rate (DCR) according to treatment modality and primary location.ResultsAll patients were studied with phenotypic nuclear …
Gli oracoli di distruzione contro l’Egitto Ez 29–32 alla luce della retorica ebraica
2021
Commentators of the Book of Ezekiel achieved different results when it comes to the structures of the oracle. This was the context of the research undertaken. The aim was to develop the structures of the oracle according to the scientific method by Roland Meynet. The research was based on «analysis of the biblical text by the method of Hebrew rhetoric». As a result of the research, it was discovered that there are six (rather than seven) oracles. The first three oracles have parallel structures, the next three have parallel-concentric structures. It was also possible to discover numerical systems that either confirm the content of the text or introduce new information that is not written in…
Fathers’ Leave Take-Up in Finland : Motivations and Barriers in a Complex Nordic Leave Scheme
2019
Despite being the first country in the world to introduce paternity leave in 1978, Finland’s current national leave scheme is complex with regard to incentivizing fathers’ take-up. Taking the unique Finnish leave scheme as a case example, this article examines fathers’ motivations and barriers to leave. Although research on fathers’ take-up of leave in divergent leave policy contexts has increased dramatically, fathers’ motivations and barriers to leave have remained underresearched. The article reports on a survey sample of 852 Finnish fathers of infants who were taking paternity, parental, and other forms of leave, drawn from the Population Register Center. Results show that less than 20%…
Negotiating parenting practices: the arguments and justifications of Finnish couples
2021
This article explores Finnish different-sex couples’ (n = 12) negotiations on their parental division of labour. Theoretically, the article is based on the literature on gendered parenting practices and relational negotiations. Our discourse analysis reveals how the couples produced ‘togetherness’ and ‘our family’ by representing their care practices as agreements, irrespective of whether the care was described as equally shared or distinctly gendered. Disagreements reflecting more individualistic tones, and mainly resulting from the mothers’ sense of unfairness, were especially foregrounded when the distribution of household duties was discussed. The analysis also revealed how men cited in…
Ocena przestrzennego rozmieszczenia parków narodowych i obszarów chronionego krajobrazu w państwach Europy Środkowej na tle prowincji fizycznogeograf…
2020
Na podstawie analizy przestrzennego rozmieszczenia parków narodowych i obszarów chronionego krajobrazu Polski (parki krajobrazowe), Czech, Słowacji i Węgier oceniono czy tworzone w poszczególnych krajach systemy ochrony przyrody i krajobrazu są reprezentatywne również dla prowincji fizycznogeograficznych w granicach państw. Stwierdzono znaczną reprezentatywność w prowincjach głównie górskich i wskazano na dalsze możliwości ochrony. Na podstawie oceny stopnia integracji systemów ochrony przyrody i krajobrazu w rejonach przygranicznych określono obszary, które powinny uzupełnić system. Między poszczególnymi krajami występują różnice w przestrzennej organizacji parków narodowych i obszarów och…

"The Dutch Legacy in the Indonesian Parliament"
2013
th century; Parliamentary procedure Abstract The Indonesian parliament, the DPR, today presents its similar characteristics as the Dutch parliament in the 19 th century. The historical trajectories show that when establishing the core of the parliament institution, the founding fathers copied what the colonial government had been practiced, and maintained during the authoritarian regime in Indonesia, accordingly the Dutch legacy lingered. Consequently, in the wave of democratic era, after the fall of the authoritarian president, the same institution should have adapted itself into a more democratic institution, but remained weak due to its outdated characteristics. This paper shows the hist…
