Keisarin valta : bysanttilaisen historiankirjoituksen kautta tarkasteltuna 300 - 1100 -luvuilla
2012
Pro gradu -tutkielma käsittelee bysanttilaisen keisarin valtaa bysanttilaisen historiankirjoituksen kautta tarkasteltuna 300 - 1100 -luvuilla. Keisarin valtaa tarkastellaan ideologisella ja aatteellisella tasolla sekä keisarin valtaoikeuksia käytännössä. Bysanttilaisen keisarin valta oli yhdistelmä roomalais-hellenististä hallitsijaperinnettä sekä kristillistä arvomaailmaa. Keisarin vallan aatteellista puolta tarkastellaan esimerkiksi vallan legitimoinnin, valtaannousun ja vallanperimyksen kautta. Bysantin keisari oli hallitsijaideologian mukaan yksinvaltias: hän hallitsi valtakuntaansa sekä bysanttilaista kansainyhteisöä, sekä toimi idän kirkon johtohahmona. Keisarin vallalla oli kuitenkin…

Boundary communication: how smartphone use after hours is associated with work-life conflict and organizational identification
2020
This study investigates how boundary communication mediates the effects of smartphone use for work after hours on work-life conflict and organizational identification. It draws upon boundary theory, work-family border theory, and a structurational view of organizational identification. The research site was a large Scandinavian company operating in the telecommunications industry, with 367 employees responding to a survey at two time periods. In contrast to many studies, the use of information and communication technologies (here, smartphones) for after-hours work was not associated with work-life conflict, but was positively associated with organizational identification. However, communica…
Social Space for Self-Organising: An Exploratory Study of Timebanks in Finland and in the UK
2018
The article examines the challenges to self-organisation and upscaling of alternative economies from the viewpoint of defending and negotiating social space. Timebanks in Finland and the UK are presented as examples, analysing the difference of defending such social space in the contexts of a traditional welfare state (in the case of Finland) and an austerity-driven government with a “Big Society” ideology (in the case of UK). Both systems of government present different kinds of pressures on timebanks, pushing them to a given ontological categories and to action in accordance with pre-defined political goals. This difference, along with timebank reactions and the question of prospects of o…
Analysis and Evaluation of Adaptive RSSI-based Ranging in Outdoor Wireless Sensor Networks
2019
Estimating inter-node distances based on received radio signal strength (RSSI) is the foundation of RSSI-based outdoor localization in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). However, the accuracy of RSSI-based ranging depends on environmental and weather conditions. Therefore, it is important that RSSI-based ranging adapts to prevailing conditions to improve its range and location accuracy. This paper analyzes and evaluates RSSI-based ranging and adaptive techniques in outdoor WSNs to improve the range quality. The findings highlight the effects of path loss exponent (PLE) estimation error and temperature change on RSSI-based ranging. Consequently, we analyze techniques for mitigating these detri…
Professional identity in changing workplaces : Why it matters, when it becomes emotionally imbued, and how to support its agentic negotiations
2022
This chapter addresses professional identity in the workplace. The relevance of the topic derives from current trends in working life, in which constant changes require continuous professional identity negotiations. In addition, employees are increasingly obliged to recognise and make visible their professional identity in order to navigate and survive in the complexities of working life. This chapter provides an overview of the conceptual frameworks, topics, and empirical evidence pertaining to professional identity, as presented in workplace learning literature. From this, it provides suggestions for researching and elaborating professional identity, with particular attention to relationa…
Potential for cascading impacts of environmental change and policy on indigenous culture.
2022
AbstractGlobal environmental and societal changes threaten the cultures of indigenous peoples and local communities (IPLC). Despite the importance of IPLC worldviews and knowledge to sustaining human well-being and biodiversity, risks to these cultural resources are commonly neglected in environmental governance, in part because impacts can be indirect and therefore difficult to evaluate. Here, we investigate the connectivity of values associated with the relationship Ngātiwai (a New Zealand Māori tribe) have with their environment. We show that mapping the architecture of values-environment relationships enables assessment of how deep into culture the impacts of environmental change or pol…
