Always in crisis, always a solution? : The Nordic model as a political and scholarly concept

2021

While campaigning for the 2016 US Democratic Party presidential nomination, Senator Bernie Sanders invoked the Nordic countries as a model for future politics. In a debate, he declared, ‘I think we should look to countries like Denmark, like Sweden and Norway, and learn from what they have accomplished for their working people.’1 Hailing the Nordic countries, especially Denmark, as an example of ‘democratic socialism’,2 Sanders’s vision engendered a heated debate, with political opponents critiquing the implied political agenda, the prime minister of Denmark protesting the idea of Denmark as a socialist country, and journalists and pundits presenting corrective views of the economic and soc…

Groups as Persons? : A Suggestion for a Hegelian Turn

2017

Christian List and Philip Pettit have recently argued for a performative theory of personhood in which all agents who manage to perform in the space of obligations are taken as persons. Based on this account they claim that group agents are also persons. This theory has been challenged on the grounds of its historical accuracy, lack of political relevance, and contestability of the concept of personhood. This paper aims to take a new perspective on the debate by approaching it through the Hegelian idea of recognition. The claim is that recognition theory provides a multi-dimensional view of personhood that gives a clearer account of what is at stake with collective personhood. peerReviewed

Environmental Responsibility as a Factor in Gaining Competitive Advantage in the Aviation Industry

2015

In recent years there has been increasing interest in the environmental impacts of aviation, and some airlines have begun to address this issue more seriously. At the same time, competition in the aviation industry has become much tougher. This study focuses on the question of whether showing proactive environmental behavior could work as a differentiation strategy for airlines that are acting more responsibly, and thus help them to improve their competitiveness. This paper presents the results of a questionnaire conducted among 148 air travelers on their opinions and attitudes towards environmental aspects of flying, such as a modern and fuel-efficient fleet, direct flights, and carbon off…

Ympäristövaikutusten arviointiin liittyvät selvitykset maatuulivoimahankkeissa

2016

Euroopan Unioni on asettanut Suomelle tavoitteeksi tuottaa 38 % energian loppukulutuksesta uusiutuvilla energiantuotantolähteillä vuonna 2020. Tuulivoima on Suomessa varsin uusi energiantuotantomuoto, minkä vuoksi tuulivoimahankkeiden YVA-menettelyjen (ympäristövaikutusten arviointimenettely) toteuttamistavat vaihtelevat paljon hankkeiden välillä. Tässä tutkimuksessa selvitettiin, miten maatuulivoimaloiden ympäristövaikutuksia on Suomessa arvioitu. Tarkastelu rajattiin tuulivoiman merkittävimpiin vaikutuksiin ja tutkimuksen laatijan omiin mielenkiinnon kohteisiin. Tutkimus on toteutettu dokumenttianalyysinä ennen vuoden 2014 syksyä valmistuneista YVA-selostuksista kaksivaiheisella koodausme…

An IPMSM torque/weight and torque/moment of inertia ratio optimization

2014

In this paper, a torque/weight and torque/moment of inertia ratio optimization procedure for interior permanent magnet syncronous motors (IPMSMs) is presented. More in detail, a performance comparison between several IPMSM rotor structures has been carried out in order to determine the optimum geometry that can maximize the torque/weight and torque/moment of inertia ratios. A commercial motor, with known electrical and mechanical characteristics, has been taken as reference. Its rotor structure has been modified several times, obtaining different rotor geometries and, therefore, many IPMSM models with different electrical and mechanical characteristics. The finite element method (FEM) analy…
