Beatrix Potter : allegoriaa ja satiiria eläinsaduissa
2009
Tämä tutkielma analysoi englantilaisen satukirjailijan Beatrix Potterin satutuotannosta kahdeksan satua. Sadut kuluvat taidesatujen genreen ja niiden allegoria toimii niin, että niissä eläimet toimivat ihmisen naamioina. Satujen allegorian takaa löytyy satiiria, jonka keskeiset teemat ovat yhteiskunnallinen eriarvoisuus, erityisesti viktoriaaninen sääty-yhteiskunta, perheen ja äidin valta, sekä naisen roolit viktoriaanisessa yhteiskunnassa. Lisäksi satujen keskeisenä teemana on vapauden kaipuu.

Health system reforms and the needs of the ageing population : an analysis of recent policy paths and reform trends in Finland and Sweden
2022
AbstractPopulation ageing with an increasing number of people experiencing complex health and social care needs challenges health systems. We explore whether andhow health system reforms and policy measures adopted during the past two decades in Finland and Sweden reflect and address the needs of the older people. We discuss health system characteristics that are important to meet the care needs of older people and analyse how health policy agendas have highlighted these aspects in Finland and Sweden. The analysis is based on “most similar cases”. The two countries have rather similar health systems and are facing similar challenges. However, the policy paths to address these challenges are…
How bright are the Nordic Lights? : job quality trends in Nordic countries in a comparative perspective
2017
Nordic countries stand out from the rest of the Europe in terms of job quality. Comparative research literature sought to explain the distinctiveness of Nordic countries with diverse sets of institutional frameworks. However, global competition, technological revolution and deregulation are common developments throughout the industrial world – processes which are seen to erode the meaning of institutions and nation states as protective mechanisms. This dissertation discusses the question on the existence and persistence of the Nordic working life model through the concept of job quality, which are investigated using surveys on working conditions. The study draws from both universal and inst…
It runs in the family?
2022
AbstractFamily background has been shown to be a strong determinant of educational attainment, yet relatively little is known about the role that family background plays in PhD attainment or in the selection into academic careers. In this study, we estimate sibling correlations from Finnish full population register data to comprehensively assess the importance of family background in selection into academia. Our results show that family background accounts for over a third of the overall variation in becoming a PhD and subsequently an academic — a share which is up to four times as large as implied by conventional comparisons by parental education. However, we did not find evidence that fam…
Työyhteisöjen digitaaliset kuilut
2011
Digitaalisia kuiluja on viime vuosikymmeninä käsitelty sangen laaja-alaisesti erilaisissa toimintaympäristöissä, mutta työyhteisön sisäinen digitaalinen eriar- voisuus vielä varsin tuore osa-alue. Tässä tutkielmassa paneuduttiin työyhteisön sisäisten digitaalisten kuilujen syntyyn ja pyrittiin nimeämään tekijöitä, jotka edesauttavat digitaalisten kuilujen muodostumista. Tutkimusmenetelmänä käytettiin sekä aikaisempaan tutkimukseen perustunutta kirjallisuuskatsausta että empiiristä tapaustutkimusta. Tapaustutkimus toteutettiin osana sähköiseen tiedonhallintaan erikoistuneen ohjelmistoyrityksen Systems Garden Oy:n kehityshanketta, jonka tavoitteena on mahdollistaa m…
