Monimuotoinen ansiotyö: Näkökulmia monista lähteistä ansaintaan
This edited volume discusses multiple job holding as part of Finnish working life. The articles in this book examine this little researched phenomenon through a wide range of empirical data. Based on Statistics Finland's register data, different ways of combining jobs are classified. Interview material sheds light on the conditions for holding multible jobs. A new perspective is provided by the chaos theory of careers.
According to the results of the study, very different paths lead to becoming a multiple job holder. The combination of jobs is influenced by the life path and interests of the individual, as well as by constraints and opportunities available. Motives can also be linked to professional networks, decisions made by immediate family, coincidences or whims.
This book helps to understand the diversity of ways of working. At the same time, it illustrates the challenges faced by those who work multiple jobs as they try to operate within simpler models and categorisations of labour. It is essential reading for anyone interested in the changing nature of work, especially researchers, students and policy-makers.
Elämää sinnittelevässä pikkukaupungissa: varkautelaisten arki ja hyvinvointi
The ten articles in this edited volume examine the city of Varkaus as a small city struggling with structural change using historical documents as well as survey and interview data. The city of Varkaus, which has a long industrial history, has lost a large part of its industrial jobs in the first decades of this millennium and its population has fallen sharply in recent years. However, a survey of the adult population shows that the inhabitants of Varkaus are typically satisfied with their work, with their social relationships and their lives in general. Varkaus is seen as a safe and good living environment. A central element of well-being is couple relationship, as well as other social relationships. The lack of well-being often stems from unemployment, low income and feelings of not belonging to the place of residence. Young adults value their place of residence as well as their family relationships, but there are tensions in their life regarding work and income. The tranquility and proximity to nature of Varkaus are appreciated, but there are also many who long for more urban heartbeat in their hometown. - Tässä kymmenestä artikkelista koostuvassa kokoomateoksessa tarkastellaan Varkautta rakennemuutoksen kanssa kamppailevana pienenä kaupunkina historiallisia dokumentteja sekä vuosina 2016–2017 kerättyjä kysely- ja haastatteluaineistoa hyödyntäen. Pitkän teollisuushistorian omaava Varkauden kaupunki on tämän vuosituhannen ensimmäisinä vuosikymmeninä menettänyt suuren osan teollisista työpaikoistaan ja sen väestö on supistunut voimakkaasti. Kuitenkin koko aikuisväestöä edustava kysely kertoo, että varkautelaiset ovat tyypillisesti tyytyväisiä työhönsä, sosiaalisiin suhteisiinsa ja elämäänsä muutenkin. Varkaus nähdään turvallisena ja hyvän elämän puitteet tarjoavana asuinpaikkana. Hyvinvoinnin tärkeitä osatekijöitä ovat parisuhde ja muut sosiaaliset suhteet. Hyvinvoinnin puutteet liittyvät työttömyyteen, pienituloisuuteen sekä ulkopuolisuuden tunteisiin suhteessa asuinpaikkaan. Nuoret aikuiset arvostavat omaa asuinpaikkakuntaansa sekä perhe- ja sukulaisuussuhteitaan, mutta arkielämään liittyy jännitteitä työn ja toimeentulon osalta. Varkauden rauhallisuutta ja luonnonläheisyyttä arvostetaan, mutta monet toivoivat siltä myös enemmän kaupunkimaista sykettä.
Elää, kokea, ymmärtää: Alex Matsonin elämä
In: Tietolipas
Alex Matson (1888–1972) is an important Finnish literary critic and essayist, whose literary reviews and collections of essays have made a vital contribution to the development of Finland's postwar literary generation. Born in Finland as the son of a sailor, Matson moved as a young child with his family to Hull in England, where he went to school. In the 1910s, he moved back to Finland, where he at first established himself as painter associated with the expressionist November Group, an important Finnish artistic movement at the time. In the interbellum, he moved from fine arts to literature. In the 1920s and 1930s, he published several novels, but more important was his work as transmitter of international literary ideas to Finland. Together with his first wife, Kersti Bergroth, he edited the literary journal Sininen kirja (""The Blue Book""; 1927–1930), which was inspired by the writings of John Middleton Murry and Katherine Mansfield. Sininen kirja is the most international literary journal in Finnish history to date and introduced Finland to the most significant modernist writers of the first half of the 20th century (Gottfried Benn, Jean Cocteau, Alfred Döblin, T. S. Eliot, Aldous Huxley, James Joyce, D. H. Lawrence, Katherine Mansfield, Paul Valéry, Virginia Woolf).
During the Second World War, Matson worked for the State Communications Agency, which was responsible for disseminating relevant information about Finland to other nations and for informing Finns of relevant developments abroad. It was also tasked with studying the prevailing mood among the population in Finland. In Matson's unpublished wartime diaries, one can see the first symptoms of a shift in Finnish culture away from Germany and towards Anglo-Saxon culture.
From the 1940s onwards, Matson recommended new English and American novels as a part of his work as reader for Finnish publishing houses, and he also translated works by Joyce, Hemingway and Steinbeck. With the help of a network of international literary critics, Matson became acquainted with New Criticism, which he introduced to Finland before it became established among academic researchers. He was often critical of academic literary studies, but his seminal essay works Romaanitaide (""On the Prose Novel""; 1947), John Steinbeck (1948), Kaksi mestaria (""Two Masters"", on Tolstoy and Dostoevsky; 1950) as well as his impressive conversational skills were instrumental in introducing knowledge about the principles of the prose novel to several authors (including Väinö Linna, Lauri Viita, and Hannu Salama), and contributed to their views of literature. Matson emphasized the importance of reading and understanding high-quality literature for the wellbeing of society.
Kirkko, papisto ja yhteiskunta 1600–1800
In: Historiallisia Tutkimuksia series.
It is generally recognized that in early modern society, the position of the church and clergy was very central. As many historians have stated over the decades, the church and state were closely connected and their power structures and ideologies supported each other. However, when studying the social and public role of the church and clergy, it soon becomes quite clear how pervasive this phenomenon was. The church not only created but also maintained and acted as a part of international, national, and local communities, structures, and cultures that connected people regardless of their social status and gender. The church was a spiritual, administrative, and social institution and experience environment, whose tasks, scope, and meanings changed and intertwined with the development, needs, and requirements of society. In this book, we investigate from different perspectives the motives and different means by which the church and clergy came to play a significant part in early modern society. In this volume, the church is considered both as an administrative institution and as a social space and cultural structure. Hence, we do not focus on the history of theology or doctrinal questions. Instead, we consider the social and public roles and meanings of the church. The church as such is understood in this book as transnational, a strong national and local institution, and also a space and structure. The church had its own institutionalized place in society and its activities and rights were defined by law (Church law 1696, the Law of the Swedish kingdom 1734) and by the decrees given by the Royal Majesty. The church had its own archbishop-led administrative organization under the Royal Majesty and it worked in close cooperation with the Crown administration and county governors. In this volume, we understand the clergy as church servants, a trained and appointed professional group, a separate estate (social class), and also as a wide social network constructed by their families. The approach of this book is social science history. In other words, the book examines the church and the clergy as an integral part of society and the individual communities who lived in the current Finnish territory during the early modern era. The topic is examined on the basis of three conceptual themes reflecting important new areas of research in the study of the social significance of the church and clergy: (1) the clergy and family as part of the community, (2) the church as a jointly built space, and (3) the church as an arena for interaction, knowledge, and politics. We approach this multidimensionality using different research questions, sources, methods, and theoretical approaches. The volume focuses on the 17th to 19th centuries, but many of the church and clergy-related phenomena are much older, and some of them extend to the present, so the articles also move beyond this time frame.
Ulkomaisen työvoiman rekrytointi:aineistolähtöinen sisällönanalyysi kuntasektorin toimintatavoista ja prosesseista
Abstract The present study concerns the recruitment of foreign workforce in municipalities and private enterprises which provide local services. We scrutinize in which professions the workforce is required in the future. This research also focuses on ways how the employer can hire the best suitable foreign employees in the organization. As the final step the aim is to develop a model for recruitment of foreign workforce. This topic is currently interesting because of the increase of the share of older population and the decrease of available workforce in Finland in the near future. It is estimated that for example there will be 185 000-210 000 new jobs available in social and health care sectors during 2005-2020. The purpose of this dissertation is to increase the knowledge regarding the recruitment of foreign workforce in the municipality sector. The research was carried out using questionnaires for ten different organizations in Northern Ostrobothnia. These are Pudasjärvi, Kempele, Liminka, Muhos, Hailuoto, Sievi, Lumijoki and Tyrnävä municipalities, Mäntykoti ry in Oulu and the Family home Ojantakanen in Pulkkila. The main research question of this dissertation is: How the recruitment of foreign workforce can be carried out in the municipality sector? The theoretical background of the analysis is based on international human resource management and multicultural literature, knowledge about the quantities of foreigners, and demographic prognosis of population statistics. Methodologically the study is a qualitative study. The research method is content analysis based on research data. The data were collected during 2011-2013 using three questionnaires to municipality and business managers. According to the results of this research the organizations need further information on how to organize the recruitment of foreign workforce the best way. There is need for the recruitment of foreign workforce in the Northern Ostrobotnia, but there are no strategies of how to carry out work-based immigration, or the strategies are inadequate. The personnel and the managers need further education to learn how to meet and orientate foreign employees. ; Tiivistelmä Tutkimus käsittelee ulkomaisen työvoiman rekrytointia kuntiin ja kunnallisia palveluja tuottaviin yksityisiin yrityksiin. Työssä selvitetään, mille aloille työvoimaa tulevaisuudessa tarvitaan ja millä keinoilla työnantaja voi palkata sopivimmat ulkomaiset työntekijät organisaatioonsa. Lisäksi tutkimuksessa on tavoitteena kehittää ulkomaisen työvoiman rekrytointimalli. Aihe on ajankohtainen, sillä väestön ikääntyminen ja työvoiman tarjonnan väheneminen vaikuttavat lähivuosina Suomen työvoiman määrään. On arvioitu, että muun muassa sosiaali- ja terveyssektorilla avautuu 185 000–210 000 työpaikkaa vuosina 2005–2020. Väitöskirjatyön tarkoituksena on lisätä tietoa ulkomaisen työvoiman rekrytoinnista kuntasektorilla. Tutkimusaineisto kerättiin Pohjois-Pohjanmaalta kymmenestä eri organisaatiosta. Nämä ovat Pudasjärven, Kempeleen, Lumijoen, Limingan, Muhoksen, Hailuodon, Tyrnävän ja Sievin kunnat, Oulun Seudun Mäntykoti ry ja Ojantakasen perhekoti Pulkkilassa. Väitöskirjan keskeinen tutkimuskysymys on: Miten ulkomaisen työvoiman rekrytointi voidaan toteuttaa kuntasektorilla? Tutkimuksen teoreettinen tausta perustuu kansainvälisen henkilöstöjohtamisen sekä monikulttuurisuuden kirjallisuuteen ja väestötilastoihin liittyviin demografisiin ennusteisiin. Tutkimusote on laadullinen. Tutkimusmenetelmänä käytettiin aineistolähtöistä sisällönanalyysiä. Tutkimusaineisto kerättiin vuosina 2011–2013 kolmella kunta- ja yritysjohtajille suunnatulla kyselyllä. Tutkimustulosten mukaan organisaatiot tarvitsevat lisätietoa siitä, mikä on paras tapa toteuttaa ulkomaisen työvoiman rekrytointi. Pohjois-Pohjanmaalla on tarvetta ulkomaisen työvoiman rekrytoinnille, mutta suunnitelmia työperäisen maahanmuuton toteuttamiseksi ei ole tai ne ovat puutteellisia. Henkilöstö ja esimiehet tarvitsevat koulutusta ulkomaalaisten työntekijöiden kohtaamiseen ja perehdyttämiseen.
