The aim is to compare how the different aspects of the economic crises are constructed discursively in newspapers texts, and how these differences shape the interpretations of the economic crises within the regions. The study is based on three methodological bases: it is comparative; it leans on methods of textual analysis (content analysis and discourse analy- sis); and it makes pragmatic use of theories within the critical tradition in the interpretation of the texts. It introduces a spatial approach to media studies, combining it with the theory of legitimation crisis and relational thinking as a way to construct identity, space, region, and change. For the study, four newspapers were selected from regions that were different, both economically and culturally. Theoretically, the regions are seen as dynamic entities consisting of different processes. The research ques- tions were approached with the help of data collected from the newspapers between the years 1988-1997. The time-span covers the last years of the economic boom of the 1980s, the economic crisis, and the recovery at the end of the 1990s.

  • 2018 Finland Country Report | SGI Sustainable Governance Indicators
    Finland Report Dag Anckar, Kati Kuitto, Christoph Oberst, Detlef Jahn (Coordinator) Sustainable Governance Indicators 2018 © vege - stock.adobe.com Sustainable Governance SGI Indicators SGI 2018 | 2 Finland Report Executive Summary Finland’s mature system of governance allows stakeholders to identify problems, formulate solutions and advance social well-being, earning the Nordic country top marks in international rankings. Freedom House has repeatedly awarded Finland the highest ranking worldwide on political liberties and civil rights. Since 2008, the country has also on several occasions topped Reporters Without Borders’ World Press Freedom Index; in the 2017 ranking, Finland places 3rd, after Norway and Sweden. After a 2008 scandal concerning party and electoral campaign financing, Finland dropped from the top position in global anti-corruption rankings. In 2017, the country ranks 3rd on Transparency International’s Corruption Perceptions Index. Legislation requiring the disclosure of donations to candidates and parties has been introduced. Modest electoral system reforms introduced in 2012 have improved the proportionality of the system. Additionally, a participatory mechanism introduced in 2012 now enables citizens to propose legislative reforms online. While Finland’s economy in past years has numbered among the most stable in Europe, its recent standing has been less favorable. The economy has been in a recession for several years, public debt is increasing and the labor market continues to shrink. Recent developments suggest a turnaround for the better. Optimistic forecasts notwithstanding, unemployment, particularly among youth, is alarmingly high. Public attitudes toward immigrants have hardened in recent years. The main political parties have hesitated to challenge this shift in part because of growing support in recent years for the populist and anti-immigration Finns Party (formerly referred to in English as the True Finns party).

    Case study report Does media policy promote media freedom and independence? The case of Finland Heikki Kuutti, Epp Lauk, Marko Lindgren University of Jyväskylä (JYU) December 2011 3 Project profile MEDIADEM is a European research project which seeks to understand and explain the factors that promote or conversely prevent the development of policies supporting free and independent media. The project combines a country-based study in Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Germany, Greece, Italy, Romania, Slovakia, Spain, Turkey and the UK with a comparative analysis across media sectors and various types of media services. It investigates the configuration of media policies in the aforementioned countries and examines the opportunities and challenges generated by new media services for media freedom and independence. Moreover, external pressures on the design and implementation of state media policies, stemming from the European Union and the Council of Europe, are thoroughly discussed and analysed. Project title: European Media Policies Revisited: Valuing and Reclaiming Free and Independent Media in Contemporary Democratic Systems Project duration: April 2010 - March 2013 EU funding: approx. 2.65 million Euro Grant agreement: FP7-SSH-2009-A no. 244365 Copyright © 2011 All rights reserved Disclaimer The information expressed in this document is the sole responsibility of the authors and does not necessarily reflect the views of the European Commission. 2 Information about the authors Heikki Kuutti is Senior Researcher in Journalism at the Department of Communication, University of Jyväskylä.

  • The Finnish Freedom of Speech: an Illusion?
    The Finnish Freedom of Speech: An Illusion? Qualitative research on the positioning of Finnish journalists in reference to reporting on Russia Student Name: Lynnemore van Ommen Student Number: 436970 Supervisor: Dr. C.E. Aalberts Second reader: Dr. B.C.M. Kester Master Media Studies Media & Journalism Erasmus School of History, Culture and Communication Erasmus University Rotterdam Master Thesis August, 2016 The Finnish Freedom of Speech: An Illusion? Abstract As Finland experienced a long and complex history of “oppression” by Russia, it is interesting to explore whether the history is reflected in the way journalists shape the existing ideology and image of Russia. According to the literature the Finnish history of “domination” by Russia and the former Soviet Union, is reflected in the existing journalistic content on Russia. Moreover, over the last five years Finland holds the number one position worldwide on the Press Freedom Index this in contrast to Russia, who is ranking 148th on index. This was different during the Soviet Union era when Finland exerted self-censorship. Considering the history of self-censorship, it is interesting to explore to what extent Finnish journalists are able to maintain their high level of freedom regarding the coverage on Russia. Accordingly, the aim of this research is to examine how journalists position themselves in reference to Russia. In order to examine this, the following main research question was designed: What is the position of Finnish journalists when it comes to reporting on Russia? In exploring the research question, a qualitative interview study was conducted among 18 Finnish journalists from 12 different newspapers that are based in Helsinki.

  • Ideals, Working Conditions and the Future for Swedish-Speaking Journalists in Finland
    Ideals, working conditions and the future for Swedish-speaking journalists in Finland Ann-Sofi Berger FörnamnMaster’s Efternamn Thesis Media Management 2019 MASTER’S THESIS Arcada Degree Programme: Media Management Identification number: 7186 Author: Ann-Sofi Berger Title: Ideals, working conditions and the future for Swedish- speaking journalists in Finland Supervisor (Arcada): Dr. Tiina Räisä Commissioned by: Abstract: This thesis has studied the ideals, working conditions and future expectations among the Swedish-speaking journalists in Finland. The three research questions were: “What ideals do Swedish-speaking journalists in Finland consider in their work routines?”, “How do Swedish-speaking journalists in Finland experience job satisfaction and job performance?” and “What do Swedish-speaking journalists in Finland want for the future of journalism?” The method used was an online survey with multiple-choice and open-ended question sent to all journalists belonging to the group. 211 answers were received and analyzed. There was a large amount of informative answers to the two open-ended questions, which gave support and insight into the questions at hand and complemented the multiple-choice answers. The literature review defined journalism, its central movements and ideals and the role of journalists and this gave the study a theoretical context. Journalism is difficult to frame due to its lack of clear boundaries and as a profession it is defined by its ideology, which is constantly evolving. The respondents were generally aware of and emphasized the importance of the core ideals, such as being trustworthy, fact-based, neutral, independent, critical, a watchdog of democracy and to explain complicated things.

  • Finland 1 1 04 Corporate Reputation and the News Media in Finland
    Finland 1 04 Corporate Reputation and the News Media in Finland Vilma Luoma-aho, Turo Uskali, Jouni Heinonen & Antti Ainamo Luoma-aho, V., Uskali, T., Heinonen, J. & Ainamo, A. (2011) Corporate Reputation and the News Media in Finland. “Corporate Reputation and the Newsmedia”, Edited by C. Carroll, Routledge: New York, pp. 36-61. Finland makes an interesting case study for the news media on public’s images and opinions (Carroll & McCombs, 2003) for several reasons. First, the news media in Finland is dominated by one major newspaper (cf. Ainamo, 2003), and it is interesting to see whether there is great consensus in public opinion due to this homogeneity (for opposing views, see Moring 2005). Second, Finland is a relatively small country (5 million inhabitants) for both business and media, and it could be speculated that the news media’s effects are less visible than in larger countries (where diffusion of news occurs directly via social contagion). Third, Finland has been a breeding ground for top innovations and successful companies or communities, which could guide both the field of journalism and the media in Finland in general toward increased internationalization as global media outlets balance the agenda-setting capabilities of national outlets. Finally, Finland’s long tradition of democracy and active membership in the European Union provides potential for business news to flow from the country, not merely into it. The structure of the chapter is as follows. First, a brief overview of the corporate sphere and the national news media in Finland is provided. Second, extant literature on the news media and communication theory, with a particular focus on agenda-setting theory and reputation management is reviewed.
