Our results, from two independent cohorts of Finnish prisoners, revealed that a monoamine oxidase A (MAOA) low-activity genotype (contributing to low dopamine turnover rate) as well as the CDH13 gene (coding for neuronal membrane adhesion protein) are associated with extremely violent behavior (at least 10 committed homicides, attempted homicides or batteries). No substantial signal was observed for either MAOA or CDH13 among non-violent offenders, indicating that findings were specific for violent offending, and not largely attributable to substance abuse or antisocial personality disorder. These results indicate both low monoamine metabolism and neuronal membrane dysfunction as plausible factors in the etiology of extreme criminal violent behavior, and imply that at least about 5–10% of all severe violent crime in Finland is attributable to the aforementioned MAOA and CDH13 genotypes. Molecular Psychiatry (2015) 20, 786–792; doi:10.1038/mp.2014.130; published online 28 October 2014 INTRODUCTION Recently, it was reported that this finding has actually started to 9 Violent crime is a major issue that affects the quality of life even in influence the attitudes on court sentences in the US.

This book describes the work ability of working-aged Finns on the basis of material from the extensive Health 2000 Survey. It focuses on the multidimensionality of work ability. How are health, work, expertise, and attitudes related to perceived work ability? Are the unemployed able to work, and does the work ability of older workers suffice for lengthening their careers? Furthermore, has the work ability of the Finnish population changed over the last few decades? By shedding light on these questions, the book provides a comprehensive information basis for everyone who is interested in the contents and promotion of work ability.

The concentrations of radioactive cesium and other gamma-emitting nuclides were determined on meat of moose8 and other cervids and also on small game in various parts of the country before or in the beginning of the hunting season. The most important radionuclides found in the samples were 134Cs and 137Cs. In addition to these, 131I was detected in the first moose meat samples in the spring, and 110"Ag in a part of the waterfowl samples. None of them was significant as far as the dietary intake of radionuclides is concerned. The transfer of fallout radiocesium to game meat was most efficient in the case of the arctic hare and inland waterfowl; terrestrial game birds and the brown hare belonged to the same category as moose.

  • Exploring Police Relations with the Immigrant Minority in the Context of Racism and Discrimination: a View from Turku, Finland
    ISSN 1554-3897 AFRICAN JOURNAL OF CRIMINOLOGY & JUSTICE STUDIES: AJCJS; Volume 1, No. 2, November 2005 EXPLORING POLICE RELATIONS WITH THE IMMIGRANT MINORITY IN THE CONTEXT OF RACISM AND DISCRIMINATION: A VIEW FROM TURKU, FINLAND Egharevba, Stephen Faculty of Law, University of Turku, Finland and Hannikainen, Lauri Faculty of Law, University of Turku, Finland Abstract Citizens and immigrant minorities come into contact with the police in various circumstances, either as witnesses, victims of crime, or even as suspects. The present study is an attempt to examine issues concerning racism and discrimination in police/immigrant relations in Finland under this circumstances, which to our knowledge has not received the academic scholastic investigation it deserves. Furthermore, this is also an attempt to look at police/immigrant everyday interactions to help in understanding this relationship. The research was carried out by means of a questionnaire (the sampled respondents consisting of forty-seven graduating police cadets a day before their graduation from the Police School and six serving police officers) and a semi- structured interview with thirteen police/cadets volunteers. These sources then served as the basis of this analysis Secondly, the participants’ experiences were examined in our attempt to determine whether the relationships were cordial or not. The authors are of the opinion that the experiences of these respondents could help to understand and shed some light on how Exploring Police Relations With The Immigrant Minority In The Context Of Racism And Discrimination: A View From Turku, Finland Egharevba, Stephen and Hannikainen, Lauri these two groups view their relations. The finding indicates some level of ignorance on the part of the police/cadets of the cultural differences between the immigrant minorities and the majority population.

  • The Dangerous Offender As a Problem in Finnish Judicature and Society Bruun Kari* University of Tampere, Finland
    Open Access Journal of Forensic and Crime Studies RESEARCH ARTICLE ISSN: 2638-3578 The Dangerous Offender as a Problem in Finnish Judicature and Society Bruun Kari* University of Tampere, Finland *Corresponding author: Bruun Kari, University of Tampere, Finland, Tel: + 358415451454, E-mail: [email protected] Citation: Bruun Kari (2019) The Dangerous Offender as a Problem in Finnish Judicature and Society. J Forensic Crime Stu 3: 102 Abstract In Finnish judicature, as elsewhere, the dangerousness of offenders has gained increasing attention during the past few decades. The question asked in this study is this: what were the knowledge and belief systems, conditions and struggles, in the judicial and societal spheres in particular, through which dangerousness reached its current status in the context of actor-centric prevention of crime? The research data consisted of government proposals, various documents, literature, and newspaper articles on law drafting as well as assessment, prediction, and conceptions of dangerousness. The analysis was done by examining the data discursively, reaching beyond the textual structure towards language-mediated social construction of reality. The analysis lends support to the notion that presumed dangerousness is a condition that is attached to the offender on the basis of certain indications but that it is not always an omen of severe violence in the future. Although the methods of assessing and predicting dangerousness have shown great progress lately, they still prove controversial in regard to an individual person. Also, the notion of decreasing the risk of offender violence by means of treatment is discernibly less emphasized in Finnish judicature than in most other Western countries.
