Icons: Visual representation to enrich requirements engineering work
2013
Adapting icons in requirements engineering can support the multifaceted needs of stakeholders. Conventional ap- proaches to RE are mainly highlighted in diagrams. This paper introduces icon-based information as a way to represent ideas and concepts in the requirements engineering domain. We report on icon artifacts that support requirements engi- neering work such as priority types, status states and stakeholder kinds. We evaluate how users interpret meanings of icons and the efficacy of icon prototypes shaped to represent those requirements attributes. Our hypothesis is whether practitioners can recognize the icons’ meaning in terms of their functional representation. According to the empi…

Three Halves of a Whole : Redefining East and West in UNESCO’s East-West Major Project 1957-1966
2017

 
 
 In 1946 Julian Huxley, UNESCO’s rst Director-General, suggested that two opposing philosophies of life were confronting each other from the East and the West, setting the focus on the cultural aspect of this polarisation and de ning the possibility of an East- West conflict as the main threat to world peace. A decade later, in 1957, UNESCO launched The Major Project on the Mutual Appreciation of Eastern and Western Cultural Values to promote its ideas of intercultural understanding as a means to maintaining peace. The core concepts of the Project, East and West, were not strictly defined. Here East and West, as concepts, fit Reinhart Koselleck’s definition of Grundbegri…
De-demonising Japan? Transitioning from war to peace through Japan’s cinematic post-war cultural diplomacy in UNESCO’sOrientproject 1957–1959
2017
AbstractIn 1959, UNESCO published a film catalogue titled Orient. A Survey of Films Produced in Countries of Arab and Asian Culture to familiarise Western audiences with Eastern cultures. Out of the 139 feature films included in the catalogue, 37 were Japanese. Through a discussion of the descriptions of the films provided in the catalogue, this article analyses Japan’s post-war cultural diplomacy in the context of the Orient project. The aim is to discuss the question of what purpose the Japanese films chosen for the Orient catalogue served in terms of cultural diplomacy. The analysis suggests the Japanese representatives aimed to position the nation in the international arena outside the …
Enterprising Culture : Discourses on Entrepreneurship in Nordic Cultural Policy
2017
ABSTRACTThe sphere of arts and culture has been going through a process of economic reevaluation during the last few decades. Parallel to the rise of a creative economy discourse, which both in its political and scientific forms has highlighted the economic significance of culture and arts, entrepreneurship has become a feature in the cultural policy of many countries. In this article, we compare how entrepreneurship is established and used as a concept in cultural policy discourses in two Nordic countries, Norway and Finland. Through analyzing policy plans and documents, we discuss what is seen as positive cultural or artistic activity in the framework of entrepreneurship, and we identify …
Diversity begets diversity: A global perspective on gender equality in scientific society leadership.
2018
Research shows that gender inequality is still a major issue in academic science, yet academic societies may serve as underappreciated and effective avenues for promoting female leadership. That is, society membership is often self-selective, and board positions are elected (with a high turnover compared to institutions)—these characteristics, among others, may thus create an environment conducive to gender equality. We therefore investigate this potential using an information-theoretic approach to quantify gender equality (male:female ratios) in zoology society boards around the world. We compare alternative models to analyze how society characteristics might predict or correlate with the …
Digital Islamophobia: The Swedish woman as a figure of pure and dangerous whiteness
2016
This article addresses the digital culture of Islamophobic bloggers, focusing on the online circulation of a forensic photograph of a Swedish woman who was assaulted. The analysis shows how through appropriating this image, the bloggers created a unifying, imagined whiteness in the transnational Islamophobic network. The empirical analysis clarifies how this one image migrated and transformed in the blogosphere and legitimated the recurrent discursive trope of “Muslim rape.” This image became a subcultural “memory freeze frame” crystallizing the contemporary Islamophobic ideologies articulated in connection to race, ethnicity, nation, gender, and sexuality. The viral circulation of this im…
Tilattomat taiteilijat, päättämättömät päättäjät : keskustelua Turun Sanomissa taiteilijoiden työhuoneista ennen Euroopan kulttuuripääkaupunkivuotta …
2011
Opinnäytetyö käsittelee Turun Sanomissa käytyä keskustelua taiteilijoiden työhuoneista ennen Euroopan kulttuuripääkaupunkivuotta 2011. Pääaineisto koskee vuosia 2006–2008. Tuona aikana taiteilijat menettivät pitkään työtiloina toimineen Jokikadun kiinteistön ja joutuivat odottamaan pitkään vastaavia tiloja. Taiteilijat ylläpitivät keskustelua ja peräänkuuluttivat oikeuksiaan työtiloihin. Samaan aikaan vaihtoehtotaiteilijat järjestivät alakulttuuritapahtumia ja talonvaltauksia. Opinnäytetyön tarkoituksena on esittää käydystä keskustelusta kokonaiskuva ja selvittää mitkä asiat on esitetty ongelmalliseksi. Tutkin myös kuinka kulttuuripääkaupunkivuosi vaikutti keskusteluun, ja mitä merkityksiä …

Taide kulttuurisena kohtaamispaikkana taidekasvatuksessa
2004
Tarja Pääjoki tutkii väitöskirjassaan millaisia näkökulmia monikulttuurisuuden kysymykset tuovat taidekasvatukseen. Monikulttuurisuus liitetään arkipuheessa etnisyyteen. Monikulttuurisuutta voi kuitenkin tarkastella myös suhteessa ikään, sukupuoleen, terveyteen tai alueellisiin ja taloudellisiin seikkoihin. Kulttuuristen erojen kanssa toimiminen on haasteellista sekä yhteiskunnallisesti että yksilöiden välillä. Taidekasvatuksen näkökulmasta mahdollisuudet vaikuttaa on toisinaan esitetty koko yhteiskuntaa muovaaviksi.- Taidekasvatuksen vaikutukset näkyvät ensisijaisesti arkisissa tilanteissa, mahdollisuuksina löytää uusia tapoja toimia ja kohdata muita. Taiteellisella toiminnalla voidaan luo…
