Monikieliset lapset ovat jo usean vuoden ajan vaatineet huomiota, joka nostaisi heidän rikkaan ja moninaisen kielenkäyttönsä negatiivisen valon sijasta positiiviseen valoon. Tämän tutkimuksen tavoite on tutkia monikielisten nuorten kieli-identiteettiä. Ensin tutkimus tarkastelee monikielisen ympäristön vaikutusta ihmisen kieli-identiteettiin. Tämän jälkeen tutkimus tuo esiin, miten monikieliset kuudesluokkalaiset ilmentävät kielitietoisuuttaan ja kieli-identiteettiään. Tutkimuskysymyksiin vastatakseen tutkimuksessa hyödynnettiin kolmea tiedonkeruumenetelmää. Nämä menetelmät, joita on käytetty monikielisten ihmisten identiteettien tutkimiseen, olivat etnografinen havainnointi, teemahaastattelut ja kuvataiteisiin pohjautuvat visuaaliset menetelmät. Koulun, ja pääasiassa CLIL-luokan, etnografiseen havainnointiin käytettiin noin kolme viikkoa. Tänä aikana kerättiin muistiinpanoja sekä järjestettiin teemahaastatteluja. Kuvataiteisiin pohjautuvat visuaaliset kuvaukset pyydettiin osallistujilta etukäteen, jonka jälkeen osallistujat kertoivat kuvauksistaan henkilökohtaisten haastattelujensa lopuksi. Tutkimuksen tuloksista voidaan päätellä, että osallistujien kielirepertuaari on rikas, moninainen ja jatkuvasti kehittyvä. Osallistujien kotikieli-identiteetillään on merkittävä rooli siinä, miten he ylläpitävät ja huolehtivat suhteestaan perheisiinsä. Tutkimuksen perusteella nähdään, että nämä monikieliset nuoret käyttävät heidän koko kielirepertuaariaan. Tämän vuoksi heidän käsityksensä kielistä on kokonaisvaltainen ja jatkuvassa liikkeessä kielten sekä kielielementtien välillä. He käyttävät kieliä ihmissuhteiden luomiseen ja ylläpitämiseen, erityisesti kotikielen ja suomen kielen avulla. Osallistujat eivät rajoita kielenkäyttöään, vaan käyttävät kieliä sujuvasti ja vapaasti, osoittaen korkeaa kielitietoisuutta. He osoittavat, että kieltenoppiminen ja sisäistäminen on prosessi, näin vahvistaen kielentämisen (languaging) käsitettä. Osallistujat ilmentävät moninaisia kieli-identiteettejään myös visuaalisissa kuvauksissa, joiden avulla he kuvasivat miten he havaitsevat jokaisen puhumansa kielen. Visuaaliset kuvaukset korostavat heidän ymmärrystään omasta kieli-repertuaaristaan, osoittaen kiel(t)en olevan työkalu, jota he käyttävät itsensä ilmaisuun ja oman identiteettinsä käsittelyyn. Tämän tutkimuksen tuloksia on tarkoitus käsitellä tapaustutkimuksena, eikä tuloksia ole tarkoitus yleistää tai käyttää edustamaan kaikkia monikielisiä. On kuitenkin suositeltavaa, että laajempaa tutkimusta kielentämiseen, kielireperutaariin ja kielten limittäiseen käyttöön (translanguaging) tehtäisiin, jotta voidaan ymmärtää miten kasvava yhteisö monikielisiä ihmisiä ymmärtää ja ilmaisee itseään tässä, usein virheellisesti yksikieliseksi mielletyssä, yhteiskunnassa.

INTRODUCTION In an era when self-reflection and self-awareness are considered highly significant to one’s self- understanding, becoming and being aware of one’s language identity is a popular question in linguistics. The present study focuses on phenomena that have, and continue to, intrigue various scholars for many years: identity and multilingualism. For various reasons, these two topics have been a subject of research in many fields (such as psychology and sociology) for decades, but most importantly for this study, linguistics, due to the role language(s) plays in understanding and forming identity. The interest in multilingualism arose initially because of globalization. Nowadays, with the help of advanced technology, globalization has broadened and perhaps even highlighted the spectrum of multilingualism. Throughout societies and history, multilingualism has arguably been practiced longer than monolingualism. According to Dufva et al. (2011) the notion of monolingualism rose due to establishments of nations that took place by separating and dividing lands geographically and linguistically. However, as multilingualism once again continues to notably be part of societies around the globe, Finland has proven to be no exception in recognizing the increasing presence of different languages that are slowly becoming part of its language communities. People who speak Finland’s official languages (Finnish and Swedish) as their second language (L2) are slowly but continually increasing in number. According to statistics (Official Statistics of Finland), In 2019 7,5% (412 700 people) of Finland’s population were second language (L2) speakers, meaning that they registered a foreign language as their mother tongue. This number is expected to increase, as Kalaja (2018) writes that the proportion of foreign-born people in Helsinki will reach 21% by 2030. While the statistics

"Tourism governance in post-war transition: the case of Kosova" Shqiperim Reka A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Sheffield Hallam University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy February 2017 Abstract The aim of this research study was to examine tourism governance in post-war transition with specific reference to the influence of political, economic and social factors, institutional arrangements, collaboration and power relations. Within this context, a crucial objective was to assess the role of mindset. Reviewing the literature in relation to the key concepts, it was discovered that research tends to focus on political and economic transition, whereas the social dimension, despite its importance, is largely neglected. Similarly, tourism governance has been overlooked in studies of tourism in post-war transition. Furthermore, the literature on tourism governance rarely takes the issue of mindset into account. To address these gaps in knowledge, a qualitative research approach was applied to study tourism governance in post-war transitional Kosova.

  • Albanian Families' History and Heritage Making at the Crossroads of New
    Voicing the stories of the excluded: Albanian families’ history and heritage making at the crossroads of new and old homes Eleni Vomvyla UCL Institute of Archaeology Thesis submitted for the award of Doctor in Philosophy in Cultural Heritage 2013 Declaration of originality I, Eleni Vomvyla confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Signature 2 To the five Albanian families for opening their homes and sharing their stories with me. 3 Abstract My research explores the dialectical relationship between identity and the conceptualisation/creation of history and heritage in migration by studying a socially excluded group in Greece, that of Albanian families. Even though the Albanian community has more than twenty years of presence in the country, its stories, often invested with otherness, remain hidden in the Greek ‘mono-cultural’ landscape. In opposition to these stigmatising discourses, my study draws on movements democratising the past and calling for engagements from below by endorsing the socially constructed nature of identity and the denationalisation of memory. A nine-month fieldwork with five Albanian families took place in their domestic and neighbourhood settings in the areas of Athens and Piraeus. Based on critical ethnography, data collection was derived from participant observation, conversational interviews and participatory techniques. From an individual and family group point of view the notion of habitus led to diverse conceptions of ethnic identity, taking transnational dimensions in families’ literal and metaphorical back- and-forth movements between Greece and Albania.

  • Proper Language, Proper Citizen: Standard Practice and Linguistic Identity in Primary Education
    Proper Language, Proper Citizen: Standard Linguistic Practice and Identity in Macedonian Primary Education by Amanda Carroll Greber A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures University of Toronto © Copyright by Amanda Carroll Greber 2013 Abstract Proper Language, Proper Citizen: Standard Linguistic Practice and Identity in Macedonian Primary Education Doctor of Philosophy 2013 Amanda Carroll Greber Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures University of Toronto This dissertation analyzes how the concept of the ideal citizen is shaped linguistically and visually in Macedonian textbooks and how this concept changes over time and in concert with changes in society. It is focused particularly on the role of primary education in the transmission of language, identity, and culture as part of the nation-building process. It is concerned with how schools construct linguistic norms in association with the construction of citizenship. The linguistic practices represented in textbooks depict “good language” and thus index also “good citizen.” Textbooks function as part of the broader sets of resources and practices with which education sets out to make citizens and thus they have an important role in shaping young people’s knowledge and feelings about the nation and nation-state, as well as language ideologies and practices. By analyzing the “ideal” citizen represented in a textbook we can begin to discern the goals of the government and society. To this end, I conduct a diachronic analysis of the Macedonian language used in elementary readers at several points from 1945 to 2000 using a combination of qualitative and quantitative methods.

  • The Law of Air Warfare
    The Law of Air Warfare by Javier Guisandez Gomez Hostile aerial action Under aerospace doctrine an aerial action is a set of aerial sorties of the same nature which take place simultaneously in pursuit of a common aim. In other words, an action of this type would attain the objective pursued if it involved two or more aircraft engaging in any of a range of operations, namely attacks, reconnaissance, transportation and special aerial missions. The possible situations in which aerial actions may take place range from peacetime to warfare, including all the intermediate stages. It may therefore be said that when aerial action is described as hostile, it is because it is actually carrying out or intended to carry out acts that have a single common characteristic, that is, violence. In this context, violence must be understood as acts which are com- mitted without the consent of the affected group or country and which therefore constitute a violation of the rights or the status of other com- munities or nations. It is important to clarify this point, as otherwise hostile Francisco Javier Guisandez Gomez is a colonel in the Spanish Air Force and heads the Tactics and Doctrine Department at the Air Force Academy in Madrid. Colonel Guisandez Gomez teaches the law of war at the Academy, at the Madrid Centre for the Study of International Humanitarian Law, at the International Institute of Humanitarian Law in San Remo, Italy, and also as an instructor for the ICRC in El Salvador, Guatemala and Nicaragua. Original: Spanish 347 INTERNATIONAL REVIEW OF THE RED CROSS aerial action would cover only aerial attack missions, while those involv- ing transportation or reconnaissance and special missions, and also electronic warfare, in-flight refuelling and so on, would not be classified as hostile action.

Not because it’s my hometown, but because it is. Other people have also said this. I come from a family of shepherds, they had a lot of sheep. We were a big family and I’m practically the first to get an education in my family, which had over 60 members scattered across the border. I’m talking about Montenegro and Albania, since the village was located like that, it had the properties there. At that time there were no borders, then the borders were created and we didn’t see our relatives there for decades, nor did we know about their lives, nor about their fate as they didn’t for us.

USS THEODORE ROOSEVELT holder plane had just landed on the Adriatic Sea. Spanish Air Force F/A-18 Hornets were the first to throw bombs on Belgrade. BGM-109 Tomahawk began to fire missiles from ships and submarine boards, supported by a battalion of Apache helicopters, which belonged to the Eleventh US Regiment Army Aviation.

Onlar gibi kim savaşın yükünü kaldırır Risk ve ihtiyaç anında: Ölümüne düşmanlar ama sadık dostlardır."(1) Giriş Balkanların kimi zaman "asi" kimi zaman "inatçı" kimi zaman "fevri" olarak tanımlanan halklarından biri olan Arnavutların kökeni hakkında bugün birçok teori ortaya atılmaktadır. 1896 yılındaki Kosova Vilayet Salnamesi'ne göre Arnavutlar Avrupa’ya Keltlerden az önce veya sonra gelmiş bir kavimdir.(2) Bir başka teori ise ilk Arnavutların soyunun İliryalılara (İllyria) ya da Traklara dayanmasıdır.(3) Evliya Çelebi’ye göre ise Arnavutların kökeni Kureyşlilerden (Arap) gelmekteydi.(4) Fakat tabii ki bunun bilimsel bir dayanağı yoktur. Evliya Çelebi Arnavutça (Arnavut Dili) hakkında ise kendi üslubuyla ‘Ve ‘Arnabud’ diye Acem kavmi lakap demişler. Ve nice tarihçiler Arnabud kavmi yazmışlar, ama tatlı dildir,birbirlerine izzet ikram ile alçak gönüllü ve yumuşakça sözler söylerler.’(5) demiştir.
