Two decades of discussion on charitable food aid in Finland : analysing the framing by and through the media

2016

Jo kaksi vuosikymmentä virallisen sosiaalipolitiikan rajapinnoilla toiminut ruoka-apu on murrosvaiheessa: Tulisiko toiminta hiljaisen hyväksynnän sijaan tunnustaa, jolloin avun kohdentamista ja järjestämistä voidaan avoimesti kehittää yhdessä kirkon, kunnallisen sosiaalitoimen ja yksityisen sektorin kesken? Onko toiminnan fokus siirtymässä väliaikaiseksi tarkoitetusta akuutin nälän torjunnasta kohti sosiaalipoliittisen ruoka- köyhyyden ja ekologisen ruokahävikin ongelmat yhdistävää ratkaisumallia? Julkisen, yksityisen ja kolmannen sektorin yhteistyönä toteutettavan saksalaisen ruoka-apumallin (Berliner Tafel -ruokapankkiverkosto) rantautuminen Suomeen (Yhteinen Pöytä …

Corporate responsibility in the food chain: The criteria and indicators

2012

Corporate responsibility (CR) is becoming a key issue in the food chain. In order to make sense of this phenomenon, a seminal aper by Maloni and Brown (2006) called for further empirical investigation on the criteria of responsibility in the food supply chain. The purpose of this paper is to answer the call by identifying the criteria for defining CR and develop indicators for measuring the responsibility performance of the food chain. The study was based on interactive and participatory stakeholder dialogues with diverse experts, corporate representatives and other stakeholders, including non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and governmental bodies. Through an iterative research process w…

Towards CCTV-aware Routing and Navigation for Privacy, Anonymity, and Safety - Feasibility Study in Jyväskylä

2021

AbstractIn order to withstand the ever-increasing invasion of privacy by CCTV cameras and technologies, on par CCTV-aware solutions must exist that provide privacy, safety, and cybersecurity features. We argue that a first important step towards such CCTV-aware solutions must be a mapping system (e.g., Google Maps, OpenStreetMap) that provides both privacy and safety routing and navigation options. Unfortunately, to the best of our knowledge, there are no mapping nor navigation systems that support CCTV-privacy and CCTV-safety routing options. At the same time, in order to move the privacy vs. safety debate related to CCTV surveillance cameras from purely subjective to data-driven and evide…

In the name of security : Governmentality apparatus in a multilingual mine in Arctic Finland

2021

This critical sociolinguistic study explores how mining work is governed in the name of security in a mine in Arctic Finland. Although the mining industry is dominated by multinational corporations, mines themselves tend to be concentrated in peripheries where a mobile and multilingual workforce is recruited. Mining is a high-risk business: industrial accidents and environmental damage can be severe. Discursive practices play a crucial role in risk management. In this study, the nexus of language, security, and production in mining work is analyzed by applying the Foucauldian concept of 'governmentality'. The data comprise ethnographic observations, work-related documents, and interviews co…

"Oppilaat ovat turvallisia, koska lapsi ei saa lyötyä niin kovaa kuin aikuinen" : viidesluokkalaisten käsityksiä turvallisuudesta

2017

Tutkimuksen teon lähtökohtana oli fenomenologinen etnografia, jossa tutkitaan yhden luokan oppilaiden omia käsityksiä turvallisuudesta. Aineistoa kerättiin opettajahaastattelulla, havainnoinnilla ja teematunnilla, jossa oppilaita pyydettiin kirjoittamaan omia käsityksiään turvallisuudesta. Tarkoituksena oli ensisijaisesti luoda etnografia ottamalla selvää, mitä lapset tarkoittavat turvallisuudella. Toissijainen tarkoitus oli vaikuttaa mahdollisimman vähän tutkimuskohteisiin. Tutkimuksella haluttiin selvittää tietyssä hetkessä lasten aito palaute, josta voisi ymmärtää, mitä lapset tarkoittavat turvallisuudella mahdollisesti toisin kuin aikuiset. Lapset hahmottelevat turvallisuutta monella ta…

Indeksy i bazy danych jako źródła w studiach nad bezpieczeństwem. Stan badań

2021

Artykuł przedstawia metaanalizę w zakresie użyteczności narzędzi poznawczych w studiach nad bezpieczeństwem narodowym i międzynarodowym, jakimi są indeksy, rankingi i bazy danych. Ich użycie w studiach społecznych sięga czasów behawioralizmu oraz projektów takich jak Korelaty Wojny (Correlates of War, CoW), czy coroczne raporty takich instytucji jak PRIO, SIPRI, czy IISS. Rozwój organizacji międzynarodowych i narzędzi analitycznych zwiększył możliwości pozyskiwania danych ilościowych i jakościowych na temat zbrojeń, konfliktów, wojen, a także poczucia bezpieczeństwa, percepcji zagrożeń, jakości życia, czy zdrowia etc. W tekście analizuję kilkadziesiąt indeksów, rankingów i baz danych (datas…
