Tekijänoikeuslaki eduskunnan käsittelyssä : digitaalisten oikeuksien hallinnan teknologiat päätöksenteon kohteena
2007
Tässä tutkielmassa tarkastellaan digitaalisten oikeuksien hallinnan teknologioita eduskunnan päätöksenteon kohteena. Tutkimusongelmina selvitän ensiksi kuluttajan ja tuottajan intressejä digitaalisten oikeuksien hallinnan teknologioilla (engl. digital rights management, DRM) suojattuun aineistoon. Toisena tutkimusongelmana selvitän miten ja mitkä kuluttajien ja tuottajien intressit politisoituvat kansanedustajien argumentaatiossa, sekä kolmanneksi tarkastelen miten kansanedustajat politikoivat, toimivat poliittisesti säätäessään tekijänoikeuslain. Ensimmäisen tutkimuskysymyksen aineistona ovat tieteelliset artikkelit, toisen ja kolmannen tutkimuskysymyksen aineistona ovat tekijänoikeuslakik…
“Sexuality does not belong to the game” : Discourses in Overwatch Community and the Privilege of Belonging
2022
Players can experience a sense of belonging to videogames and the transmedial worlds surrounding them. There nevertheless exist ongoing negotiations over who has the right to belong to these spaces. Multiple works addressing related issues have highlighted that white heterosexual men still maintain the position of power in the majority of game communities (e.g., Consalvo, 2012; Paul, 2018). This position can translate into an ease of belonging while others can find themselves struggling for the right to belong. We examine the transmedial world of Overwatch, an online game, as a place of belonging and non-belonging. Since the game’s launch, two characters have been revealed as queer. In cont…
Politicisation as a Speech Act: A Repertoire for Analysing Politicisation in Parliamentary Plenary Debates
2021
This chapter analyses the actual speech acts of politicisation among parliamentarians, which also makes it possible to set the current debates among European Union (EU) scholars in a wider context. My aim is to sketch a scheme for distinguishing different aspects of politicisation, referring to concepts of politics (sphere or activity and its specific aspects), to the politicisation of topics or persons, to its time dimensions (past, present, and future), to different activities of politicisation (adversaries, unintended changes, the actors themselves), as well as to opposing evaluations of politicisation. The data set consists of the plenary debates of the UK House of Commons, the (West) G…

Politicisation of Travelling : Interrail and Freedom
2020
Travelling is today an important aspect of the European political agenda-setting of both individual actors and institutions. The paradigms of car and air travel are contested in terms of climate change; I continue the contestation from the perspective of political liberty. Three paradigms of personal travel – by car, by flight and by train – are confronted with two concepts of liberty: the freedom from interference versus the freedom from dependence. Three ideal types of travel – travelling to, travelling away and travelling around – are judged from the perspective of the two freedoms. Train travel by Interrail is a political innovation that links the freedom of movement to the freedom from…
Race, Environment, and Crisis : Hurricane Camille and the Politics of Southern Segregation
2022
In August 1969 Hurricane Camille hit the Mississippi coast. We argue that the disaster caused by the Hurricane was an outcome of the entanglement between human and non-human agents. As a non-human agent, Hurricane Camille thrust the prevailing socio-economic situation in the segregationist South into the spotlight, with all its political and cultural ramifications – much to the annoyance of the local political elite that had long sought to isolate southern politics from civil rights and the desegregation agenda. Consequently, it (re)invigorated and furnished the civil rights movement and the politics defining that era with new arguments and approaches that would have been impossible to dev…

State composers and the red courtiers : music, ideology, and politics in the Soviet 1930s
2007
Venäläisiin arkistolähteisiin pohjaavassa väitöstutkimuksessaan Simo Mikkonen käsittelee Neuvostoliiton poliittisen eliitin ja taiteilijoiden keskinäisiä suhteita 1930-luvulla. Ajanjakso muistetaan Stalinin valtaannoususta ja joukkoterrorista. Taiteiden osalta on puhuttu taiteellisen vapauden alistamisesta poliittisiin päämääriin puolueen pakkokeinojen ja vainon avulla. Mikkonen osoittaa käsityksen osin virheelliseksi: yhtään eturivin säveltäjää ei terrorin aikana lähetetty vankileireille, teloituksista puhumattakaan. Säveltäjistä neuvostoeliittiä Säveltäjien asema muuttui merkittävästi 1930-luvun aikana. Säveltäjien työ ammattimaistui, he nousivat osaksi eliittiä ja heidän elintasonsa kohe…
Parliamentarisation as Politicisation
2021
Understanding politics as a contingent and controversial activity, politicisation refers to those activities that create or make visible the political quality in the phenomena in question. Parliamentarisation is a distinct strategy of politicisation. In this chapter, parliament refers to a certain procedural and institutional ideal type of acting politically. The parliamentary way of politicising acting and thinking forms a Gedankenbild, a mental image. It is an ideal type that one-sidedly accentuates and intensifies the political way of thinking. The parliamentary way of proceeding politically transcends the given polity: ‘parliament’ is not primarily a parliament ‘of’ a unit, such as the …
