The Rocky Road of Growing into Contemporary Citizenship: Dewey, Gramsci, and the Method of Democracy
2015
Characterized by globalization, increasing pluralism, and new complexities of citizenship, the contemporary world poses challenges to the ways in which we conceptualize of the processes of searching for shared solutions to ever-complicated social problems. While the political rhetoric emphasizes the value of citizens’ participation, engagement, and “voices,” there are increasing feelings of frustration, incapacity, and disinterest on behalf of the citizens regarding the supposed eff ects of their political engagement. In order to conceptually grasp the problem of searching for shared solutions and the related challenges to education, we draw on John Dewey’s idea of the method of democracy a…
Changing people’s attitudes and beliefs toward driving through floodwaters : Evaluation of a video infographic
2018
Abstract Despite awareness of campaigns such as ‘Turn Around, Don’t Drown’ and the Australian state of Queensland’s ‘If It’s Flooded, Forget It’, people continue to drive through floodwaters, causing loss of life, risk to rescuers, and damage to vehicles. The aim of this study was to develop a video infographic that highlights the dangers of driving through floodwaters and provide safety tips to reduce the risk, and to evaluate its effectiveness in changing the beliefs and intentions of Australian adults toward this risky driving behaviour. This study adopted an online three-wave non-controlled pretest–posttest design. Australian licensed drivers (N = 201, male = 41, female = 160; Mage = 34…
Similar and equal relationships? Negotiating bisexuality in an enduring relationship
2015
In the public debate in Finland, same-sex couples’ right to legal recognition is routinely defended by stressing their sameness to heterosexual couples within the discourse of romantic love. This article explores how bisexual women and their partners use these discourses. The five couple interviews were analyzed by implementing discourse analysis. The results highlight how, when taking positions within the discourse of the enduring couple relationship, the interviewees drew on the discourse of romantic love. Woman’s bisexuality disappeared easily in this talk. Although it seemed effortless at first sight, negotiations and affective tensions arose when the interviewees tried to fit their re…
Corporate business model transformation and inter-organizational cognition: the case of Nokia
2013
This article distinguishes between a firm’s corporate business model and business models of its various business units. Our aim is to provide new insights into how executives’ cognitive processes can influence corporate business model transformation decisions. We focus especially on top managers’ recognition of inter-organizational cognitions, that is, such cognitions about the firm and its businesses that are shared by the top managers and stakeholders of the firm in the industries and communities where it operates. We support our theoretical work with an historical case study of Nokia’s corporate business model transformation between 1990 and 1996, which proved highly successful. We find …

Metaphysical Imagination in the Flesh : Hepburn with de Bruyckere
2019
Huoli kuvasta : merkitys, mieli, materiaalisuus
2017
This research is a hybrid of a monograph and a multiple-article dissertation. Its theoretical starting point is a phenomenologically based view of the being of the image, in which Georges Didi-Huberman´s work plays a central role. For him, as well as for Mieke Bal, a historical work of art is never only in the distant past only but also exists in the present actuality. This makes the temporality of the Image extremely complex. The Image can be encountered only “pre-posterously” (Bal) or by reading it “against the grain” (Didi-Huberman). The Image is necessarily anachronistic; it is not in time but opens up time. This fact should be taken into account not only in art history, but also in art…
Genius ja vastuu : Kantin kautta uuteen taiteilijakäsitykseen
2008
Tutkielmani käsittelee taiteilijakäsitystä. Väitän että taiteilijakäsityksemme on vanhahtava, eikä vastaa tarpeitamme Avaan nykyistä käsitystämme tarkastelemalla sen juuria valistuksessa ja romantiikassa. Modernin subjektin ja yhteiskunnan syntyyn ajoittunut katkos taidefilosofiassa johti geniuksen, neron korostumiseen ja yhdistämiseen taiteilijuuteen. Tässä muutoksessa oleellisessa roolissa oli Immanuel Kantin filosofia ja erityisesti hänen estetiikan pääteoksensa Kritik der Urteilskraft, Arvostelukyvyn kritiikki, joka onkin pääasiallinen lähteeni geniusfilosofiaan. Kantin ajatukset vaikuttivat romantiikan nerokäsityksiin, joista taas kuuluu yllättävän paljon kaikuja 2000-luvun tavassa käs…
