2012
Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli tarkastella kaksikielisyyden ja identiteetin välistä suhdetta. Tutkielmassa haluttiin selvittää millainen perusidentiteetti sekä kielellinen identiteetti kaksikielisillä ihmisillä on. Tutkimus tehtiin laadullisena tapaustutkimuksena ja tutkimusmateriaali kerättiin teemahaastattelun avulla, jossa oli myös vaikutteita syvähaastattelusta.

Teemat koskivat haastateltavien suhtautumista kaksikielisyyteen, kulttuuriin ja ryhmiin. Lisäksi selvitettiin, millaisia asenteita ja ongelmia haastateltavat olivat ympä…
Gendered Work-life Ideologies among IT Professionals
2022
The study investigates the discourses IT professionals use to produce work–life relations. We focus on work–life ideologies and explore the agencies produced, as well as whether and how they are gendered. Our data were collected in interviews with 24 women and men working in the IT industry in Finland. Our results show, first, that work–life relations were constructed discursively through two different work–life ideologies, and second, that these ideologies produced different gendered agencies in reconciling work with life. In our study, work–life talk produced different positions for women and men, which were influenced by gendered norms and social expectations. We conclude that gendered a…

Feminists in High Heels : The Role of Femininity in Second-Wave Feminists' Dress in Finland, 1973-1990
2018
Recent studies have shown that the politics of self–presentation was a contentious issue among feminists. This article, which is based primarily on oral histories, addresses how Finnish second– wave feminists viewed the meanings of dress and appearance for their identity. The focus is on those who believed that feminist ideology liberated them to embrace their femininity and argues that Finnish feminist views about dress liberated women from the orthodox Marxist, pro–Russian Soviet political ideology of the Taistoist movement that was popular among young people in the 1970s, yet also from traditional, conservative female education at home and in school. peerReviewed

‘Integration is not a one-way process’ : students negotiating meanings of integration and internationalization at home (IaH) in Finnish higher educat…
2023
Internationalization at home (IaH) policies in higher education institutions (HEIs) are rarely negotiated with and by students. Therefore, students’ takes on such policies could be missed opportunities for HEIs. This qualitative study investigates international and local students’ negotiations and meaning-making of integration and IaH as stated by institutional policies. The data consist of online forum entries and reports from small group discussions between 40 students in English medium master’s programs in Finland (Europe). The key concepts of ideology and imaginary serve as entries into data analysis, which consists of enunciative discourse analysis. The findings indicate a perceived hi…
Suomeen valmistumisen jälkeen jääneet tutkinto-opiskelijat tilastojen valossa
2019
Tarkastelemme kirjoituksessamme ulkomaalaisia tutkinto-opiskelijoita, jotka valmistuivat Suomen ammattikorkeakouluista tai yliopistoista vuosien 1999 ja 2011 välisenä aikana. Pyrimme kuvailemaan Tilastokeskuksen rekisteritietojen avulla, kuinka moni valmistuneista on edelleen Suomessa kolme vuotta valmistumisen jälkeen ja mitkä taustatekijät ovat yhteydessä päätökseen jäädä maahan. Kiinnitämme tarkastelussa erityistä huomiota siihen, kuinka valmistumisen jälkeen Suomeen jääminen käsitteellisesti määritellään mittausta varten. Lisäksi vertaamme maahan jääneiden henkilöiden tilannetta ja työmarkkinatulemia suomalaisten vastaaviin tulemiin finanssikriisin jälkeisenä aikana. Tulosten mukaan ulk…
