  • 1 a Slightly Slummier Area? Negotiations of Place-Bound
    A slightly slummier area? Negotiations of place-bound identities through social spatialisations and unofficial toponyms1 Jani Vuolteenaho, Hanna Lappalainen & Terhi Ainiala University of Helsinki ABSTRACT: In the article, spatialisations (discourses of ideal or stereotyped spaces) are conceptualised as powerful discourses of the surrounding society, providing resources for place-bound identity construction in interaction. We combine a sociolinguistic analysis with Bakhtinian dialogism to understand how such ‘third’ voices in dialogue empower and pluralise self- and other- positionings embedded in the evocations of unofficial place names. Empirically, the focus is on toponyms that divide the socially mixed Vuosaari suburb in Helsinki into ‘older’ and ‘newer’ territories. The results show that when the stereotypes of ‘good’ and ‘bad’ neighbourhoods or other spatialisations interpenetrate the uses of ‘Old’ and ‘New Vuosaari’, they open room for the (re-)voicing of the meanings of these toponyms for highly differentiated social ends. With the Bakhtinian framework bridging between socio-spatial theory and sociolinguistics, the article develops a spatially sensitised approach to analyse the entanglements of the micro-level contexts of interaction with the macro-level discourses of meaning-giving. KEY WORDS: unofficial place names, social spatialisations, self- and other-positioning, place-bound identities 1 ABSTRACT IN FINNISH: Sosiaaliset spatialisaatiot ovat yhteiskunnassa vaikuttavia tilaa koskevia ideologisia diskursseja.

  • Uusi Kaava –Podcastin Neljännen Jakson Litterointi
    Uusi kaava –podcastin neljännen jakson litterointi Äänitteen nimi: Uusi Kaava e04 master3.mp3 Äänitteen kesto: 00:42:32 Asiakas: [email protected] Merkkien selitykset: [?] = sanan kirjoitusasusta ei voi olla täysin varma, mutta merkitys on ainakin sinne päin. Sanan äänityskohta merkitään tekstiin ylös esim. [sana? 00:15:44] [??] = sanasta ei voinut saada selvää, joten se on täysin epävarma tai sitä ei voitu kirjata ylös lainkaan. Sanan äänityskohta merkitään tekstiin ylös esim. [?? 00:15:44] [tekstiä] = äänet tai litteroimatta jätetyt kohdat merkitään tekstiin hakasulkeisiin, esim. [naurahtaa] tai [haastattelu keskeytyy hetkeksi, kun haastateltava vastaa puhelimeen] Äänite alkaa Jussi Ukkonen [00:00:03]: Kaavaprosessissa usein korostuu sitten kuitenkin juuri ne liito-oravat ja sellaiset, koska ne ovat sellaisia niin sanottuja kovia luontoarvoja. Eli niiden avulla voi vääntää kättä. Ja se sotkee myös ihmisten ajattelua, koska myös mediassa uutisoidaan aika dramaattisesti usein, että nyt sieltä on löytynyt jotain eläintä. Ja tavallaan kuitenkin ihmisiä oikeasti kiinnostaa se, että mitä he voisivat itse puuhailla siellä. Musiikkia [00:00:25]: Ida Kukkapuro [00:00:47]: Tämä on Uusi kaava, Ympäristöministeriön podcast asumisesta. Tässä jaksossa me puhumme vain ja ainoastaan asumisesta kaupungeissa, siitä miten kaupunkeja tehdään, kenelle niitä tehdään ja mikä ylipäätään on hyvä kaupunki. Varmaan jokaisella on kaupunkisuunnittelusta joku mielipide, mutta mitä sen lainalaisuuksista olisi sitten hyvä ymmärtää? Minä olen toimittaja Ida Kukkapuro ja olen asunut koko lapsuuteni kylämäisissä olosuhteissa metsän laidalla, nuorena luullut olevani todella urbaani ja haluavani aina asua kaupungin sykkeessä ja nyt perheellisenä löytänyt melko täydellisen kompromissin lähiöstä. Seuranani on maankäytön suunnittelun professori ja ympäristöpsykologi Marketta Kyttä. Ja Jussi Ukkonen, kaavoja valmisteleva arkkitehti Helsingin kaupunkiympäristön toimialalta ja myös fellow-podcastaaja Ajatuksia kaupungista -arkkitehtuuripodista.
