COVID-19 and globalization
2020
The world is experiencing a major pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2, the Coronavirus causing COVID-19. This disease first entered the human population in Hubei province, China, in mid-November 2019 and manifested in Wuhan, the largest metropolitan area of Hubei, when a cluster of patients were admitted to hospital with a ‘severe pneumonia of unknown cause’ in early December. Although humanity has survived previous pandemics by infectious agents, the present one is unprecedented in its capacity to take advantage of modern globalization allowing for massive transborder spread at a surprising speed. When writing these lines, the pandemic affects 181 countries and territories, with around 1,084,000…
The dialogue between east and west in the construction of gender photography as support of discourse and resistance
2018
En el marco de la globalización, en las nuevas narrativas de género se han producido cambios conceptuales con nuevos posicionamientos críticos y de resistencia. Mujeres creadoras de otras culturas, diferentes al mundo occidental, han trabajado para denunciar situaciones o poner en valor el empoderamiento de las mujeres como protagonistas de su destino. Y es en esta línea donde las mujeres artistas han aportado sus propuestas feministas y de resistencia. Los objetivos de este trabajo se centran en dos ejes conceptuales: a) analizar la situación de las mujeres en el contexto de los países islámicos y b), mostrar, a través del trabajo de fotógrafas procedentes de estos países, como se está con…

Non-elected Political Elites in the EU
2017
With globalization and Europeanization, profound changes have taken place in the composition and structure of elites. Once solidly tied to the nation state, elites have, following processes of differentiation and specialization, become more transnational than ever before. Their development has been conditioned by the evolving relationship between international, transnational, and national powers. In the European context, key institutional players today include the European Commission, the European Ombudsman and the European Court of Justice as aspiring representatives of the general European interest and the Council of Ministers and member states as representing national interests in the EU…
Developing a globalization competence assessment framework and its application to Finnish and Japanese higher education
2013
Nykyajan kansainvälistyvä maailma luo uusia vaatimuksia valmistuneille ja ammattilaisille tietojärjestelmätieteen (TJT) alalla. Monikulttuurisessa ja hajautetussa ympäristössä työskentelystä on tullut arkipäivää, joten tarvittava pätevyys kansainvälisessä ympäristössä työskentelyyn on edellytys. Tämänhetkinen TJT:n opetussuunnitelma ei kuitenkaan ota kansainvälistymisopetusta huomioon riittävässä määrin. Opiskelijoiden todenmukaisen pätevyyden määrittämiseksi on arvioitava varsinaista kompetenssia pelkän tiedon sijaan. Tämän työn tarkoituksena on vastata edellä mainittuihin haasteisiin rakentamalla viitekehys opettajien käyttöön kansainvälistymiseen tarvittavien kompetenssien määrittämiseks…

Emerging Economies Faced With The Downside Of Financial Globalization: Hedges And Way Outs
2009
The underlining assumption of this paper is that developing countries are in a fragile state nowadays. Economically, they have been seriously harmed by the 2008 crisis1 but this is not the end of the story: the future still has pitfalls in which these economies might get trapped, due to their enhanced vulnerability to exogenous shocks generated by financial globalization. Ideologically, the recent events have triggered a serious backlash against capitalism, particularly the Anglo-Saxon template. Getting an insight into the causes and implications of global economic crises is therefore critical for policy-makers in emerging economies. History might be a good adviser in this respect. Lessons …
