First Trip Abroad: Expectations, Experiences and Stories of Transnational Romanians
2014
Abstract The paper analyzes transnational Romanians’ stories about their first trip abroad. The concept of physical mobility is seen in a broader framework for understanding transnational and cosmopolitan behaviours as well as international migration. In order to distinguish between different types of travelling for the first trip abroad the article is constructed keeping in mind the structural changes and constraints regarding physical mobility for Romanian citizens. During the process of transition from a communist country to the status of EU member, Romanian citizens’ stories about travelling abroad for the first time fundamentally changed. Labour migrants, asylum seekers, business trave…
He Is All American Now”: Italian–Americans in the Italian Campaign of World War II
2022
This chapter aims to analyze the case of the Italian–Americans' participation in World War II. It is an interesting case study to focus on issues connected to the processes of constructing multifaceted identities that characterize ethnicity. In 1943, in view of the invasion of Italy, the US asked Italian–Americans to fight against their ancestor country. Nonetheless, they were encouraged to exploit their idealistic roots and their “ethnical” competence to facilitate a “good occupation.” Biographies of Italian–Americans that were in Italy will help us to examine the interplay between Italianness and Americanization in war experience.

Stories about transnational higher education (TNHE) : exploring Indonesian teachers’ imagined experiences of Finnish higher education
2019
We examined Indonesian school teachers’ perceptions and expectations about their professional learning, and their justifications for these, before they embarked on a transnational master’s programme carried out in both Indonesia and Finland. The data were collected using the method of empathy-based stories. The findings showed that the teachers expected the programme content, execution and internationality to impact positively on their professional learning, while negative professional learning scenarios were framed as stemming from a lack of personal motivation or lack of support from the Indonesian community. Moreover, the teachers expected to become more skilled professionals not only as…
Tarpeita terveydenhuollossa : Unitarian Service -komitean avustusmatkat Saksaan, Italiaan ja Suomeen vuonna 1948
2014
Unitarian Service- komitea on unitaarien Yhdysvalloissa vuonna 1940 perustama kristillinen avustusjärjestö, joka on toteuttanut useita avustusmatkoja Eurooppaan toisen maailmansodan jälkeen. Useat matkat keskittyivät ruoka- ja vaateavun lisäksi kohdemaiden terveydenhuoltojärjestelmään tutustumiseen ja siinä esiintyneiden puutteiden ja epäkohtien kohentamiseen. Vuonna 1948 järjestö toteutti mittavat avustusmatkat Saksaan, Italiaan ja Suomeen, joiden terveydenhuolto-olot ja avustustyöntekijöiden niistä esittämät havainnot ovat tässä tutkimuksessa tarkastelun keskiössä. Avustusmatkoilta kirjoitettujen raporttien avulla tutkimuksessa tarkastellaan sitä, kuinka avustusmatkoille lähteneet yhdysva…
Anerkjennelse og menneskeverdets forankring : henimot en transnasjonal anerkjennelsespolitikk
2011
Anerkjennelse spiller en nøkkelrolle for menneskeverdet innenfor Frankfurterskolens kritiske teori. Men hvorledes skal «anerkjennelse» forstås? Og hvorledes kan anerkjennelse innløse menneskeverdets universelle og egalitære fordring? Jürgen Habermas' og Axel Honneths «familiekrangel» bidrar med relevant innsikt om relasjonen mellom menneskeverd og anerkjennelse. Dette er en innsikt med affinitet til menneskeverdets normative legitimering i dagens transnasjonaliserte verden.Nøkkelord: Menneskeverd, transnasjonal anerkjennelsespolitikk, Jürgen Habermas, Axel HonnethEnglish summary: Recognition and the Grounding of Human Dignity – Towards a Transnational Politics of RecognitionRecognition play…
Comparative International Communication Projects: Overcoming the Challenges

Over the last 10-20 years, comparative research in the feld of communication has almost become fashionable. Many factors are responsible for this, for example: an increased awareness of globalisation as a communication-driven process; an awareness of increased transnational conglomerization of media organizations; and the increasing use of the Internet which facilitates easier access to information around the world. But the big question is how to organize collaborative international communication research efectively? Which models of cooperation are available to us, and what are their advantages and disadvantages? In this article, I analyze fve ways of doing collaborative researches and thei…
Agreements regarding the property relations of transnational couples and their effects under the application of the twin regulations
2021
It is a true and verifiable fact that the family institution has evolved over recent decades in Europe and throughout the world, but not uniformly or at the same time. This is because it is influenced by social and cultural connotations specific to each State. All of which are respected under EU Regulations 2016/1103 and 2016/1104. This work analyses the Twins Regulations, that gives the couples the possibility of choosing the jurisdiction (art. 7) and applicable legal system underpinning the property consequences of the marriage and registered partnerships (art. 22.1). However, we try to show you these rules absolute freedom of choice is not granted to the parties, because this freedom is …
