  • Transnational Finnish Mobilities: Proceedings of Finnforum XI
    Johanna Leinonen and Auvo Kostiainen (Eds.) Johanna Leinonen and Auvo Kostiainen This volume is based on a selection of papers presented at Johanna Leinonen and Auvo Kostiainen (Eds.) the conference FinnForum XI: Transnational Finnish Mobili- ties, held in Turku, Finland, in 2016. The twelve chapters dis- cuss two key issues of our time, mobility and transnational- ism, from the perspective of Finnish migration. The volume is divided into four sections. Part I, Mobile Pasts, Finland and Beyond, brings forth how Finland’s past – often imagined TRANSNATIONAL as more sedentary than today’s mobile world – was molded by various short and long-distance mobilities that occurred FINNISH MOBILITIES: both voluntarily and involuntarily. In Part II, Transnational Influences across the Atlantic, the focus is on sociocultural PROCEEDINGS OF transnationalism of Finnish migrants in the early 20th cen- tury United States. Taken together, Parts I and II show how FINNFORUM XI mobility and transnationalism are not unique features of our FINNISH MOBILITIES TRANSNATIONAL time, as scholars tend to portray them. Even before modern communication technologies and modes of transportation, migrants moved back and forth and nurtured transnational ties in various ways. Part III, Making of Contemporary Finn- ish America, examines how Finnishness is understood and maintained in North America today, focusing on the con- cepts of symbolic ethnicity and virtual villages. Part IV, Con- temporary Finnish Mobilities, centers on Finns’ present-day emigration patterns, repatriation experiences, and citizen- ship practices, illustrating how, globally speaking, Finns are privileged in their ability to be mobile and exercise transna- tionalism. Not only is the ability to move spread very uneven- ly, so is the capability to upkeep transnational connections, be they sociocultural, economic, political, or purely symbol- ic.

  • North Adams in Context
    Mill Town, Factory Town, Cultural Economic Engine: North Adams in Context Kay Oehler Stephen Sheppard Blair Benjamin C3D Report NA1.2006 Copyright 2006 Mill Town, Factory Town, Cultural Economic Engine: North Adams in Context We must examine social context to understand the community effects of a cultural organization. This is especially true for a newcomer to the neighborhood like MASS MoCA. Ethnographic and anecdotal evidence suggest that the most important signs of community development impact are at the neighborhood level. The social context of the community and the organization, and their relationship to one another, are what concerns us in this report. Drawing upon newspaper articles, local ethnographic sources, and Census and other town data we will provide a background on the development of the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art (MASS MoCA), how it came to exist, why it exists in North Adams, the cultural history of North Adams, and a brief economic history of North Adams. The study of North Adams is a first step in developing a template by which we can study and compare neighborhood regeneration through the introduction of a new cultural arts organization. Through a series of reports we will present a variety of perspectives – historical, anthropological, economic, and sociological – to analyze and discuss the results of North Adams’ attempt to regenerate itself by collaborating with the development of a major new cultural arts organization, MASS MoCA. The tools we develop throughout this project are replicable yet flexible enough to allow for comparable studies in a variety of neighborhoods and communities. The geographic location of North Adams has shaped its history Stephen Sheppard 2004 We will see that North Adams, while economically and socially troubled in the 1980s, has a rich social history.
