Is Democracy Exportable?
2017
Among many aspects to the question of whether democracy is exportable, this contribution focuses on the role of the people, understood not as a unitary actor but as a heterogeneous set: the citizens. The people matter, in a different way, both in the countries to which democracy might be exported and in the democratic countries in which the question is about promoting democracy elsewhere. The mechanisms or characteristics involved in the discussion include yardstick competition, differences among citizens in the intensity of their preferences, differences among autocracies regarding intrusion into private life, citizens’ assessments of future regime change, and responsiveness of elected inc…
Rodzinne determinanty wyborów edukacyjno-zawodowych w świetle założeń teorii kolejności narodzin
2019
W środowisku rodzinnym rozpoczyna się faktyczny proces preorientacji i wstępnej orientacji zawodowej. Poprzez wychowanie przez pracę i wprowadzanie dzieci w świat zawodów rodzice starają się przygotować młode osoby do podejmowania właściwych i trafnych wyborów edukacyjno-zawodowych wobec wymagań dynamicznie zmieniającego się rynku pracy. Celem prowadzonych badań była analiza uwarunkowań rodzinnych wyborów edukacyjno-zawodowych dzieci, w tym efektów kolejności narodzin jako czynnika formującego i różnicującego aspiracje oraz preferencje zawodowe przedstawicieli poszczególnych pozycji w rodzeństwie. W badaniach retrospektywnych prowadzonych metodą sondażu diagnostycznego przy użyciu autorskie…
The 2021 G20 and Italy: keeping our dreams alive?
2022
Italy’s presidency of the G20 defied the odds and resulted in costly commitments by the members on a range of issues: global health, climate change, a minimum global tax, and the crisis in Afghanistan. How can we explain this success? Italy’s prime minister, Mario Draghi, and his extensive prior experience and widespread respect was certainly a factor. The global context was also important, with the new Biden administration in the US leading a group of countries seeking multilateral solutions to pressing international problems.
Principals’ views on changes in the provision of support for learning and schooling in Finland after educational reform
2019
Recently, the large-scale reforms of special education have been carried out in many countries. This study focuses on the latest Finnish reform of special education in compulsory education. As principals lead educational reforms in schools, their role in the implementation of reform is significant. The study explores principals’ views on the changes in support arrangements after the educational reform. We used latent class analysis to identify the subgroups of principals who share similar views. In addition, we examined the relationship between the subgroups and individual, school, and municipal level factors using multinomial logistic regression analysis. Four subgroups were identified: im…
Using Private Social Care Services in Finland : Free or Forced Choices for Older People?
2016
Use of private social care services among older people is increasing in Finland. This study aims to understand why older people choose private care in a comprehensive tax-subsidized social care system and examines whether people choose private service as a free choice or a forced choice as well as what factors contribute toward making these choices. Data for this study (N = 1,436) were gathered in 2010 from people aged 75 and above living independently at home in two Finnish cities: Tampere and Jyväskylä. Data were analyzed with several quantitative tests: chi-squared tests, multinomial regression analysis, and qualitative content analysis (for the open-ended responses from the survey quest…
Professional Integration of Sociology Graduates from the Lucian Blaga University of Sibiu, 2002-2009
2010
Abstract The professional integration of higher education students is a problem for all contemporary societies, including the Romanian one. The surplus of graduates, the diplomas’ devaluation, the opportunities’ inequality and the unequal distribution of labour market’s posts are just a few determinant factors, which make the individual to adopt a variety of strategies to get a job. This research is particularly interested in the integration process on labour markets of sociology graduates in Romanian academic system, taking in consideration the case of sociology graduates from the Lucian Blaga University of Sibiu. The main objective is to understand all mechanisms of social, economic, cult…

Modal Consequence Relations Extending S4.3: An Application of Projective Unification
2016
We characterize all finitary consequence relations over $\mathbf{S4.3}$ , both syntactically, by exhibiting so-called (admissible) passive rules that extend the given logic, and semantically, by providing suitable strongly adequate classes of algebras. This is achieved by applying an earlier result stating that a modal logic $L$ extending $\mathbf{S4}$ has projective unification if and only if $L$ contains $\mathbf{S4.3}$ . In particular, we show that these consequence relations enjoy the strong finite model property, and are finitely based. In this way, we extend the known results by Bull and Fine, from logics, to consequence relations. We also show that the lattice of consequence relation…
CRM -käyttöönotossa huomioitavat tekijät
2010
Korhonen, Jussi Tapani Tietojärjestelmätieteen kandidaatintutkielma / Jussi Korhonen Jyväskylä: Jyväskylän yliopisto, 2010. 40 s. Kandidaatintutkielma Tutkielmassa selvitetään kirjallisuuskatsauksen kautta tekijöitä, jotka vaikuttavat CRM:n käyttöönotossa onnistumiseen. Tutkielmassa esitellään CRM:n määritelmä, kartoitetaan CRM-järjestelmää sekä sen osia, selvitetään miksi CRM:ää tulisi tarkastella strategisesta näkökulmasta sekä havainnollistetaan hyötyjä joita CRM:llä on mahdollista saavuttaa. Tämän jälkeen tuodaan esille kirjallisuudessa esitettyjä tekijöitä, joiden on havaittu olevan syynä CRM:n surullisenkin kuuluisaan onnistumistodennäköisyyteen. Näiden havaintojen pohjalta esitellään…
