Instead of the good, the beautiful and the right his works unscrupulously depict man and his surrounding society. In Räbinä’s video installations image, drama and music are amalgamated into moralities fuelled by the frustrated rage of people in breadlines, deprived and shoved aside to the perimeter of their own lives. Tearing the society apart with such straightforwardness has been rare and shocking in Finland, not unlike the effect Yael Bartana’s works deconstructing national rhetoric of Jewish Israel. Räbinä also challenges the commonly accepted clichés of national narratives, but the intensity of his expression is more head-on than Bartana’s and his approach borderline blunt. Despite this he doesn’t use simple statements – even when dealing with themes like war, violence, struggle for power, suffering and life as a refugee – but instead leaves room for cerebration, pondering and people’s own opinions. Räbinä’s acute awareness of European history is also a rarity. In 1993 as the war raged in the former Yugoslavia, Räbinä was chosen as the Young Artist of the Year and made Tampereen kapina (Revolt of Tampere) – a piece that refers to Finland’s Civil War. The situation in Yugoslavia prompted an introspection into our own past. In Räbinä’s work the refugees fleeing from Iraq, Syria and other crisis regions are in a sort of limbo. They are physically present but any genuine participation and interaction with the original population is absent. How are they going to change our country? When will their stories be heard? Räbinä creates a mood, situation and space for questions which only the future can answer. Räbinä has successfully realised several large-scale projects and proven that he masters both the production process and responsible scheduling. He has also worked as a teacher of sculpture at the Finnish Academy of Fine Arts in 1998–2000. His expression is distinct, unique and provocative. It is either hated or loved. Perhaps that is what good art should do.' Arja Elovirta Curator.

Earlier versions of the manuscript have been presented at the conferences of the International Sociological Association in Bielefeld 1994, British Social Policy Association in Liverpool 1994, the Research Committees for Social Stratification in Stockholm and for Poverty, Social Welfare and Social Policy in Canberra in 1986 as well as at the Welfare States at the Crossroads conference in Stockholm in 1997 and at different seminars. We want to thank participants in these conferences as well as Rune Åberg and Johan Fritzell for valuable comments. The work has been supported by the Bank of Sweden Tercentenary Foundation, the Social Science Researach Council and the Council for Research in the Humanities and Social Sciences. Abstract The debates on how to reduce poverty and inequality have focused on two controversial questions. One is whether social policies should be targeted to low-income groups or universal; another whether benefits should be equal for all or earnings-related. Traditional arguments in favor of targeting and flat-rate benefits, focusing on the distribution of the money actually transferred, have neglected three policy-relevant considerations: 1. The size of redistributive budgets is not fixed but reflects the structure of welfare state institutions.

  • Pollen and Charcoal Analyses from Lake Etu-Mustajärvi, Southernfinland, with Special Reference to an Early Holocene Urtica Pollen Maximum
    POLLEN AND CHARCOAL ANALYSES FROM LAKE ETU-MUSTAJÄRVI, SOUTHERNFINLAND, WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO AN EARLY HOLOCENE URTICA POLLEN MAXIMUM KAARINA SARMAJA-KORJONEN SARMAJA-KORJONEN. KAARINA 1995:Pollen and charcoal analyses from Lake Etu-Mustajärvi, Southern Finland, with special reference to an early Holocene Urtica pollen maximum. Bull. Geol. Soc. Finland 67, Part 1, 37-46. Sediments of a small lake, Etu-Mustajärvi, in southern Finland, were studied with respect to their fossil pollen and charcoal content. Pollen analysis showed a typical development of vegetation from the earliest Holocene onwards, since the isolation of the lake from the Baltic Ice Lake. The emerged land was first colonised by herbs and bushes, and for the first time in Finland an Urtica maximum of 4 % is reported for this period. It is considered possible that Urtica may have been a commoner part of the pollen flora of newly emerged land in south Finland than has been previously thought. Charcoal analysis was undertaken to examine the Holocene history of forest fires in the area. At least in the Lammi area, charcoal seems to have been most abundant about 8000-6000 BP, a result which is in apparent disagreement with the general concept that the period was moist and thus forest fire frequency could not have been high. Key words: paleoecology, lake sediments, paleobotany, pollen analysis, Urtica, charcoal, fires, Holocene, Lammi, Finland Kaarina Sarmaja-Korjonen: Division of Geology and Palaeontology, Department of Geology, University of Helsinki, P.O.

  • Eva Srejber: Life Outside Euroland
    Eva Srejber: Life outside Euroland Speech by Ms Eva Srejber, Second Deputy Governor of Sveriges Riksbank, at the annual meeting of the Economic Society, Helsinki, 11 February 2002. * * * Let me begin by thanking you for the invitation to speak at the Economic Society's annual meeting. I intend to take developments in Finland and Sweden during the 1980s and 1990s as the starting point for my talk and to illustrate the similar experiences our countries have had. After that, I shall touch on the economic arguments in favour of and against EMU membership and take up the role of the Riksbank in this debate. As the political temperature has risen in the EMU issue in Sweden, I intend to conclude with some words regarding the potential timetable. Sometimes Finland and Sweden are compared in terms borrowed from family life or the world of sport. However, the question is not which brother or sister is the oldest, or who is ahead in the international economy race. Our countries are interwoven to such an extent today that we often go in the same direction. However, in one area our two countries have chosen – at least for the time being – to take different paths. This applies, of course, to membership of the Economic and Monetary Union (EMU). Finland has for various reasons decided to participate fully from the start, while Sweden has decided to "wait and see". At the same time, one should remember that we are still in the same economic playing field, with the same regulations and the same referee, constantly striving to make economic progress to achieve the best possible welfare – a process that actually has no end.

  • Environmental Education in Finland – a Case Study of Environmental Education in Nature Schools
    International Journal of Environmental & ScienceEnvironmental Education education in Finnish nature schools Vol. 4, No. 1, January 2009, 1-23 International Journal of Environmental & Science Education Vol. 3, No. 3, July 2008, xx-xx Environmental Education in Finland – A Case Study of Environmental Education in Nature Schools Eila Jeronen University of Oulu, Finland Juha Jeronen University of Jyväskylä, Finland Hanna Raustia University of Oulu , Finland Received 14 August 2008; Accepted 20 December 2008 The article aims to introduce Environmental Education (EE) in Finland and to discuss how it has been taken into account in Finnish nature schools. Firstly, we present EE models used in Finland. Thereafter we describe a qualitative case study on EE in nature schools (NS). The aim of the study was to get information for the development of EE. The research questions were: Who are the visitors to NSs? What are the educational aims in NSs? What kind of educational methods and approaches do NS teachers use? The resultant data for the questions from 1 to 3 is based on the questionnaires com- pleted by 23 (61 %) NS teachers in 2006. The data were analysed quantitatively and qualitatively using both deductive and inductive content classification methods. The results showed that most NSs offered their services almost exclusively for children and young people and the main visitor group to the NSs were pupils from primary and lower secondary schools. The ideas on fostering a sustainable way of life and environ- mental responsibility mentioned in the criteria of the nature and environmental schools were expressed by most respondents. The most used educational methods were nature trips and inquiry learning methods, while the most common approaches were physical activity and learning by doing in nature.

Objective – To compare the task profiles of primary care doctors in two societies: district doctors in Estonia and general practitioners in Finland. Design – A uniform questionnaire was developed and used in 30 European countries in 1993 (The European Study of GP Task Profiles). The questionnaire was sent to a random sample of Estonian district doctors and Finnish health centre doctors. Data from 139 respondents in Estonia and 239 respondents in Finland were obtained. Main outcome measures – Personal and practice information, pro- portion of doctors performing certain medical procedures in their practices by themselves and being the first contact in relation to different problems. Results – The Finnish general practitioners (GPs) had more consultations per day, the Estonian district doctors made remarkably more Finhome visits. Participation in on-duty work was 82% among the Finnish and 22% among the Estonian doctors.
