Olosuhteet ja neuvottelijoiden kunnia Uudenkaupungin rauhanneuvotteluissa 1721

2022

Artikkeli on perustutkimusta, joka keskustelee arjen ja tilallisuuden sekä osin ympäristöhistorian ja kokemushistorian kanssa, käsitellen Uudenkaupungin rauhanneuvotteluita 1721. Aiemmin rauhanneuvotteluita ja niiden tuloksia on tutkittu poliittis- ja tapahtumahistoriallisesti. Artikkelissa keskitytään alkuperäislähteitä hyödyntäen rauhanneuvotteluihin niin fyysisenä kuin sosiaalisena ympäristönä myös luonnonolosuhteet huomioiden. Tutkimus alkaa rauhanneuvotteluiden valmistelusta ja sisältää niin Uuteenkaupunkiin matkustamisen haasteineen, neuvotteluympäristön toteutuksen kuin välittömät jälkitoimet rauhansolmimisen jälkeen. Fyysisen kontekstin lisäksi neuvottelijoiden yhteiskunnallinen ase…

Language as a site of search for common ground and power positioning in Chinese-Finnish negotiation

2019

This paper explores some language-related aspects in investment negotiation between Finnish and Chinese partners, such as language choices, the role of interpreters, and overcoming misunderstandings. These are seen as sites of both search for common ground in terms of positive politeness (affiliation) and power positioning in terms of negative politeness (autonomy) (Brown and Levinson 1987). This study is based on data obtained by interviewing individuals who work for state investment attraction agency and local governments in Finland and observation in delegation meetings. While misunderstandings occur, overcoming linguistic, contextual and cultural differences in understanding is possible…

Mediated learning materials: visibility checks in telepresence robot mediated classroom interaction

2021

Videoconferencing is increasingly used in education as a way to support distance learning. This article contributes to the emerging interactional literature on video-mediated educational interaction by exploring how a telepresence robot is used to facilitate remote participation in university-level foreign language teaching. A telepresence robot differs from commonly used videoconferencing set-ups in that it allows mobility and remote camera control. A remote student can thus move a classroom-based robot from a distance in order to shift attention between people, objects and environmental structures during classroom activities. Using multimodal conversation analysis, we focus on how partici…

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…

Speculation and lottery-like demand in cryptocurrency markets

2021

Abstract This is the first paper that explores lottery-like demand in cryptocurrency markets. Since recent research provides evidence that cryptocurrency returns appear to be short-memory processes, we modify Bali, Cakici and Whitelaw’s (2011) and Bali, Brown, Murray, and Tang’s (2017) MAX measure and employ a weekly forecast horizon and daily log-returns from the previous week to calculate the metric for our portfolio sorts. From an econometric point of view, this study proposes statistical tests that are robust to unknown dynamic dependency structures in the cryptocurrency data. Our results show that average raw and risk-adjusted return differences between cryptocurrencies in the lowest a…

The Discursive Dance : The Employee Co-operation Negotiations as an Arena for Management-by-fear

2015

The purpose of this article is to qualitatively describe and critically explain the discursive construction of employee co-operation negotiations in Finland as an arena for management-by-fear. The article consists of a theoretical review, covering the legislative basis of co-operation negotiations and recent research on management-by-fear. The empirical study consists of media texts and company media releases in Finland in 2012–2013. The main conclusions are that there are distinctive features in the co-operation negotiations that enable and enforce the possibility of management-by-fear, and thus destructive leadership. The process, supported by law and very much against the original aim, e…

Roolit hajautettujen tiimien verkkokokouksissa

2013

Tämän pro gradu -tutkielman tavoitteena oli kuvata millaisia rooleja hajautettujen tiimien verkkokokouksissa ilmenee ja tarkastella mittkä roolit korostuvat ja mitkä jäävät taka-alalle virtuaalisen ryhmän vuorovaikutuksessa. Tutkittavaa ilmiötä lähestyttiin käyttämällä aineistonkeruussa systemaattista havainnointia. Tutkielmassa havainnoitiin Connect Pro -verkkokokoussovellusta käyttäviä työryhmiä. Havainnoitava aineisto koostui viidestä verkkokokoustallenteesta. Tuloksissa käy ilmi, että verkkokokouksessa joitakin rooleja ilmenee useammin kuin kasvokkain tapaavan ryhmän toiminnassa. Näitä ovat muun muassa etsijä, rohkaisija ja portinvartija. Jotkut roolit muuttuvat ja niihin voidaan liittä…
