Sami Suodenjoki, Popular Songs As Vehicles for Political Imagination
Sami Suodenjoki, Popular Songs as Vehicles for Political Imagination Sami SUODENJOKI POPULAR SONGS AS VEHICLES FOR POLITICAL IMAGINATION: The Russian Revolutions and the Finnish Civil War in Finnish Song Pamphlets, 1917–1918* The rule of rogues is now ended, as our country is ruled by the government of men, by the People’s Delegation, and therefore we rejoice! Yet a battle still lies before us until the hiding places, the nooks are empty, until the bourgeoisie, its rabble of villains, is disarmed and harmless. With these verses from “The Finnish Spring,” the songwriter David Lauri Leivo called workers to arms in March 1918, during the first deci- sive battles of the Finnish Civil War. The militant verses were included in a small collection of songs titled Lahtarikenraali Mannerheimin husaarit (The Hussars of Butcher-General Mannerheim). This eight-page pamphlet * The author acknowledges the anonymous reviewers for their valuable comments and suggestions. 228 Ab Imperio, 2/2019 circulated in southern Finland, which was controlled by the socialist Red Guards.1 By means of moral polarization, mockery of the bourgeois enemy, and glorification of the proletarian struggle against oppression, the song pamphlet reflected and boosted the revolutionary mood among the Reds. Because the pamphlet marked out Leivo as a Red sympathizer, the question naturally arises of what happened to him when the Whites crushed the so- cialist revolutionaries only a month later. His verses also raise more general questions about the role of popular songs in revolutionary mobilization and political propaganda. In this article, I explore how printed songs published in 1917 and 1918 reflected and in turn affected the ongoing revolutionary situation and politi- cal imagination in Finland.

Finland Under Swedish Rule from the 12Th Century Until 1809, the Area of Modern-Day Finland Was Part of Sweden
FINLAND’S MILITARY HISTORY FROM THE 12TH TO THE 21ST CENTURIES 1100–1809: Finland under Swedish rule From the 12th century until 1809, the area of modern-day Finland was part of Sweden. In the 17th century Sweden grew into a great power, and Finnish soldiers fought as far away as Central Europe. The Finnish cavalry men’s battle cry of ‘Hakkaa päälle’ (‘Cut them down’) became famous and they started to become known as the Hakkapeliittas. The Finnish War 1808–1809: Finland becomes part of Russia In 1808–1809 Sweden and Russia went to war as part of Napoleon's wars throughout Europe, which led to Sweden losing the area which is now Finland to Russia. Finland became an autonomous part of the Russian Empire, with its own conscript army from 1881 to 1901. 1917–1918: Finland becomes independent and descends into civil war Finland became independent from Russia, which was undergoing a revolution, on 6 December 1917. Following this, a bloody civil war broke out in Finland between government forces – the Whites – and the insurgent Red Guards. The Germans supported the government forces and the Finnish Jaegers, who had been trained in Germany, formed part of the White Army, whilst Soviet Russia supported the Reds. For the Whites, the war was a war of liberation from Russia, and it lasted until May 1918. In the battles and prison camps of the war, almost 30,000 Finns died. Thanks to their superior leadership and troops, the Whites won the war. The Winter War 1939–1940: Finland defends itself against the Soviet Union Between 30 November 1939 and 13 March 1940, Finland fought the Winter War against the Soviet Union, which had attacked Finland in the course of the Second World War.

Bank of Finland Unit for Eastern European Economies Review of Economies in Transition 7/97 Olga Lustsik* The Anatomy of the Tallinn Stock Exchange Abstract This article gives an overview of the role, microstructure and the present state of development of the Tallinn Stock Exchange (TSE). This topic has not been discussed widely enough by foreign media because the TSE is still quite young, having commenced operations on 31 May 1996. The rules of the TSE allow a certain degree of freedom but at the same time entail fairly high standards for participants. That is one of the reasons why activity on the TSE is growing so rapidly. For the year, the TSE outperformed the stock exchanges in Riga and Vilnius in many areas, as measured by most indicators. The TSE has also provided numerous benefits to both Estonia and companies whose shares are traded. For instance, Estonia's financial system is now considered to have reached a developed stage and companies are finding it easier to raise capital because the TSE provides an objective assessment of their value.

Holocene Sea-Level Changes and Glacio-Isostasy in the Gulf of Finland,Baltic Sea Arto Miettinen* Department of Geology, P.O
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Helsingin yliopiston digitaalinen arkisto ARTICLE IN PRESS Quaternary International 120 (2004) 91–104 Holocene sea-level changes and glacio-isostasy in the Gulf of Finland,Baltic Sea Arto Miettinen* Department of Geology, P.O. Box 64, University of Helsinki, FIN-00014 Helsinki, Finland Abstract Shoreline displacement in the eastern part of the Gulf of Finland during the past 9000 radiocarbon years was reconstructed by studying a total of 10 isolated lake and mire basins located in Virolahti in southeastern Finland and on the Karelian Isthmus,and in Ingermanland in Russia. Study methods were diatom analyses,sediment lithostratigraphical interpretation and radiocarbon dating. In southeastern Finland,the marine (Litorina) transgression maximum occurred ca. 6500–6200 14C yr BP (7400–7100 cal. yr BP). In areas of the slower land uplift rate on the Karelian Isthmus and in Ingermanland,the transgression maximum occurred ca. 6400– 6000 14C yr BP (7300–6800 cal. yr BP). The highest Litorina shoreline is located at ca. 23 m above present sea-level in southeastern Finland,whereas in the eastern part of the Karelian Isthmus,near St. Petersburg,it is located at ca. 8 m above present sea-level. The amplitude of the Litorina transgression in Virolahti area is ca. 4 m,whereas on the Karelian Isthmus and in Ingermanland the amplitude has varied between 5 and 7 m. The regional differences between areas are solely due to different glacio-isostatic land uplift rates. The seven basins studied in this research were connected to the Baltic Sea basin during the Litorina Sea stage and their diatom and lithostratigraphical records indicate a single,smooth Litorina transgression.
