  • Comparisions of Finnish and Chinese Business Cultures
    Peng Bo COMPARISIONS OF FINNISH AND CHINESE BUSINESS CULTURES Project /Bachelor’s thesis Business Management October 2009 DESCRIPTION Date of the bachelor's thesis 5 Oct 2009 Author(s) Degree programme and option PengBo Business Management Name of the bachelor's thesis Comparison of the Chinese and Finnish business cultures Abstract Culture is a key to explore the identify of a business. From cultural comparisons we can know more things in detail. It will give people more ideas and help to start business between two countries. Most of Chinese people like to do business with a country they are familiar with. In recent years, China began to deal with Finland in trade and business to establish cooperation between the two countries. To China Finland is a new country, so it is necessary to introduce the Finnish business culture to Chinese people to let them know more about Finland. Conversely, the Chinese business culture also needs to be introduced to Finnish people. In this way, both sides can know more about the other party. I will introduce some facts and figures about the two countries, and compare the Finnish and Chinese business cultures. The business culture comparison can be divided two parts. One part is the academic one, the other part is practical. The academic part includes the theory of business culture and facts and figures of the two countries. The practical part includes the research process, findings and conclusions. I made my interview questions based on the theory part. In order to choose a good company for my practical part I listed some famous companies in Finland and in China.

Tässä tutkimuksessa keskityttiin viet- namilaiseen ja thaimaalaiseen ruokaan. Lisäksi tavoitteena oli että tätä opinnäyte- työtä voidaan käyttää jatkoselvityksiin samasta aiheesta. Tutkimusosuus tehtiin käyttäen kvantitatiivista tutkimusmenetelmää. Tutkimus- menetelmänä oli kyselylomake, johon haastateltiin yli 18-vuotiaita suomalaisia. Kysely toteutettiin pääasiassa Vaasan ammattikorkeakoulussa sekä Facebookissa. Pääteoriat, joita kyselyssä sovellettiin, ovat maun ja makumieltymysten teoriat. Myös kulttuuriteoria otettiin huomioon kysymyksiä laadittaessa. Vastaajien tuli täyttää kaksi vaatimusta: Vastaajan täytyi olla suomalainen ja maistanut joko viet- namilaista ja thaimaalaista ruokaa. Tutkimus analyysi paljasti, että suomalaisilla on tietoa, kiinnostusta ja positiivisia ajatuksia Vietnamilaisesta ja Thaimaalaisesta ruoasta, vaikka suurin vastaajisa ei ole käynyt Vietnamissa tai Thaimaassa. Tämä osoittaa, että Kaakkois- Aasialaisella ruoalla on mahdollisuus

The Russian state came into being during the ninth century along the shores of the waterways between the Baltic Sea and Constantinople. Novgorod was in the north and Kiev at the midway point.

  • Germany As a Cultural Paragon Transferring Modern Musical Life from Central Europe to Finland
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Helsingin yliopiston digitaalinen arkisto Germany as a Cultural Paragon Transferring Modern Musical Life from Central Europe to Finland By Vesa Kurkela and Saijaleena Rantanen Introduction From the customary point of view, the two decades before and after the turn of the 20th century form the era when the national music culture of Finland was born. During these years, the first symphony orchestra (1882), the first conservatory (1882), the Finnish National Opera (1911), the Finnish Musicological Society (1916) and the first chair of musicology at the University of Helsinki (1918) were founded.1 Further, in the wake of the first symphonies (1900–1902) and other orchestral music by Jean Sibelius, the concept of ‘national style’ was born, and Finnish orchestral music witnessed a breakthrough in the Western world.2 In addition, the years between the mid-1880s and the Great War became famous for national song festivals with unprecedented large audiences and a great number of performers: thousands of nationally-inspired citizens assembled at the festivals, organised almost every summer in regional centres, in order to listen to tens of choirs, brass bands, string orchestras and solo performances.3 On closer inspection, however, we also find the formation of a new music culture in the transnational context of general European music, both art and popular. This development can be seen as a long-lasting process, in which German music and musical culture were transformed and translated to a prominent part of modern national culture in Finland.

  • Creating a Chromatic Atmosphere: the Colour Design Process of the New Koivusaari Neighbourhood in Helsinki
    Journal of the International Colour Association (2019): 23, 3-14 Pyykkö Creating a chromatic atmosphere: The colour design process of the new Koivusaari neighbourhood in Helsinki Saara Pyykkö Department of Architecture, Aalto University, Finland Email: [email protected] This study explores a colour design project of a new neighbourhood, Koivusaari, in Helsinki, Finland. The author has worked as the colour designer of this area and analysed the design process and the used colour design methods. The research questions are 1) How to design the colours of a new neighbourhood, and which methods are used at each planning stage? 2) How to design the atmosphere of a new neighbourhood with architectural colours? This paper describes the colour design process of Koivusaari and compares it with two previously documented urban-scale colour design projects. The Koivusaari project has a distinctive character, because the design target is to design colours for the design guidelines and not for directly to the existing architecture or the facades. The practice-led study has identified eight steps. The first steps of the colour design process are quite similar to the other compared projects. The analyses of the landscape, townscape and colourscape in different seasons and weather have given information about how to integrate a new residential area to the landscape. The chromatic atmosphere of the surrounding landscape and the experience-based envisioning of the new architecture were the basis for the design guidelines and new identity of the neighbourhood. Received 14 December 2018; accepted 20 December 2018 Published online: 15 March 2019 Introduction This paper documents one section of a practice-led doctoral research about the methods and the colour design process of Koivusaari, a new housing area in Helsinki, Finland.
