Modern Finnish Economic History
2022
The Finnish economy has experienced a relative late growth and catch-up process in relation to many other advanced Western economies. During this growth period, Finland also experienced a rapid structural change from an agrarian society to a developed service society. In a small open economy, the export industries have played a vital role in this development. Over several centuries, the forest industries have had a dominating impact in exports, along with the metal industries; however, the latter, as well as the electronics industry, with Nokia as the flagship company, gained more importance in the late 20th century in aggregate exports. The egalitarian educational system has to a large ext…

Enacting Community Economies Within a Welfare State
2020
The Nordic welfare states, despite their history of successful welfare generation, have recently experienced a penetration of capitalist market relations to ever new spheres of life. Also their failure to create ecologically sustainable welfare models has been undeniable. Simultaneously, community economies have emerged as a source of ideas and practices on what ‘the economy’ fundamentally could signify. In their multiple manifestations, community economies are about enacting the economy differently, on a grassroots level. Yet community economies have typically not been analysed as inspirations and challenges to the future of the welfare state. This is despite that, to some extent, they sha…

Kuinka varallisuuden muutokset näkyvät yksityisessä kulutuksessa? : varallisuusvaikutus Suomessa 1975-2008
2012
Tässä tutkimuksessa selvitettiin kotitalouksien varallisuuden kulutusvaikutuksia sekä lyhyellä, että pitkällä aikavälillä. Tutkimuksen teoreettinen viitekehys nojaa Andon ja Modiglianin (1963) elinkaarihypoteesiin, jonka pohjalta kulutuksen muutoksia tarkasteltiin. Kotitalouksien varallisuus jaettiin käteis- ja talletusvarallisuuteen, arvopaperivarallisuuteen ja asuntovarallisuuteen. Tutkimuksessa tarkasteltiin näiden varallisuuserien aggregoitujen määreiden ja aggregoidun yksityisen kulutuksen muutoksia regressioanalyysin keinoin. Pitkän aikavälin estimaatit laskettiin sekä tavallisen-, että dynaamisen pienimmän neliösumman menetelmällä. Lyhyen aikavälin tarkastelussa käytettiin virheenkor…
Practices and perceptions on ecolabels of Finnish companies with circular economy business models
2022
There is a need to better understand the role of ecolabels in the scope of the Circular Economy transition. The aim of this research was to study the perspectives and practices of ecolabel use among Finnish companies with circular economy business models. The survey-based research targeting 214 companies (response rate 18% = n. 39) showed that ecolabels were not commonly used among the sample of companies. (Human) resource constraints were found in this research to partially explain the low uptake of ecolabels. Therefore, the research opens further questions as to alternative benchmarking and communication tools for the environmental performance of companies that see themselves as frontrunn…
