Excluding the Poor : globalisation and educational systems
2002
02062; International audience; The article starts from the fact that one billion adults are illiterate world-wide, that more than 100 million children of school age are not schooled, and that the democratisation of the access to education is often only rhetorical. On the basis of available statistics it tackles successively three questions. First, who finances education and how much do they spend? Secondly, what resources or means are devoted to the education of an individual, and how can these data be evaluated. And finally, do the inequalities between individuals, social groups or nations tend to de- or increase with respect to education access. It will be shown that, for example, in deve…

Musiikki katsojan odotuksia muovaavana tekijänä Michael Haneken elokuvassa Funny Games (1997)
2016
Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli tarkastella musiikin vaikutusta katsojan tulkintaan ja odotusten syntymiseen elokuvan Funny Games (1997) avauskohtauksen kautta. Kohtauksessa soiva musiikki on nähty kuvastavan elokuvan yleistä tunnelmaa ja juonta erittäin hyvin ja tämän vuoksi musiikin on nähty viestivän katsojalle sisällöltään epämukavasta elokuvasta. Tutkimusta varten haastateltiin yhteensä kolmea yliopisto-opiskelijaa, jotka katsoivat lyhyen ja pitkän version kohtauksesta ja sen pohjalta kertoivat näkemyksistään elokuvan jatkosta ja kohtauksen sisällöstä. Haastatteluaineisto analysoitiin teoriaohjaavan sisällönanalyysin keinoin. Tulosten myötä kävi ilmi, että musiikilla on merkitystä …
Quality management in the public sector accounting department - (un)avoidable quality costs and unlikely financial impacts
2017
This paper investigates the nature of quality costs and the likelihood of their having financial impacts in the public sector. An illustrative quality development case project in an accounting department of a Finnish city administration is presented. The empirical data includes answers to a qualitative project question sheet, workshop material and participative observation. Quality problems are classified according to their quality cost category and the extent to which they are avoidable. Some of the quality costs proved unavoidable and some are likely to lack financial impact, exhibiting sticky cost behaviour. The study indicates that certain prevention and appraisal costs in the public se…
Preventive effect of risedronate on bone loss and frailty fractures in elderly women treated with anastrozole for early breast cancer.
2011
The aim of this study was to assess the effect of adjuvant anastrozole, alone or associated with risedronate, on BMD and bone fracture risk in women more than 70 years old with hormone receptor-positive early breast cancer (EBC). In a group of 51 elderly women (aged 76.4 ± 5.0 years) considered for adjuvant aromatase inhibitors for EBC, 24 patients with T-scores ≥ -2 and no prevalent fractures received anastrozole 1 mg/day (group A), and 27 patients with T-scores < -2, or with T-scores ≥ -2 and prevalent fractures (group B), received anastrozole (1 mg/day) plus risedronate (35 mg/week). Both groups received supplementation with 1 g calcium carbonate and 800 IU vitamin D per day. Differen…
Poverty and mortality of children under five in Niger : trends 1998-2012
2021
Questions of the well-being of populations in general, and in particular health, have raised global interest for several decades. By way of illustration One of the missions of the 1948 constitution, namely "to advance action in favor of the health and well-being of mothers and children". The various international conferences from Almata –Ata (1978) to that of New York 2000 for the Millennium Development Goals and the Sustainable Development Goals of 2015 have reiterated and emphasized the aspects of health and poverty. Niger, a country located in sub-Saharan Africa, continental and landlocked, one of the largest countries in West Africa with 1,267,000 km2, has subscribed to all these intern…

Precarious Sovereignty in a Post-Liberal Europe : the Covid-19 Emergency in Estonia and Finland
2020
The paper addresses a puzzle resulting from the current global state of alert: the coronavirus pandemic brought us back to the world of the allegedly sovereign nation states with borders and national governments in charge, yet in fact, this retrieved sovereignty looks very vulnerable and precarious. We explain this controversy through a triad of concepts—sovereignty, governmentality, and post-liberalism—that we apply to an analysis of a corona-imposed state of emergency in Estonia and Finland. Based on comparative case study research, we posit that sovereignty is precarious in post-liberalism due to its large dependence on the technologies of responsibilization and agency. From a biopolitic…
Winter feeding leads to a shifted phenology in the browntail moth Euproctis chrysorrhoea on the evergreen strawberry tree Arbutus unedo
2010
1 The browntail moth Euproctis chrysorrhoea is a highly polyphagous univoltine forest pest. Although its young larvae usually overwinter in diapause from early autumn to the beginning of spring, winter larval feeding has been reported when this species feeds on the evergreen woody shrub strawberry tree Arbutus unedo. 2 The present study investigated life-history traits of four populations of E. chrysorrhoea feeding on A. unedo, including phenology of the different life stages, larval feeding activity and diapause incidence. By modelling the relationship between larval size and host plant leaf persistence, elevation and mean annual temperature, we also studied larval development in ten popul…
