(Jyväskylä Studies in Education, Psychology and Social Research ISSN 0075-4625; 505) ISBN 978-951-39-5842-8 (nid.) ISBN 978-951-39-5843-5 (PDF) ‘Parliament’ has become an empty word. Contrary to their historical purpose, parliaments today are often considered as merely representative and legislative assemblies. They are treated as parts of the system of government, while paying little attention to their deliberative character or modes of proceeding. This is also the case in Finland, although Finnish parliamentarism was in fact original- ly developed through intra-parliamentary procedures. The study examines the learning and development of parliamentary rules and practices in the late nineteenth-century Finnish Diet and the early twenti- eth-century unicameral parliament, the Eduskunta. It highlights a lost history of Finnish parliamentarism. While parliamentary government was largely out of the question in the Finnish grand duchy of the Russian Empire, the discussions in Finland reflect an understanding of parliamentarism as a procedural mode of politics. Procedures were seen as the essence of parliamentary activity; they of- fered a means to introduce characteristics of modern parliaments within the obsolete four-estate system. Contrary to the standard interpretation, the thesis shows that the formula- tion of Finnish procedures was a process based on an active following of a vari- ety of foreign discussions. Utilising possibilities offered by the recent digitisa- tion of historic Finnish newspapers, the study sheds light on previously unstud- ied topics and explores the press as a means for learning and teaching foreign parliamentary models and as an arena for debating Finnish procedures. Finland was part of a European discourse: newspapers offered a means to fill gaps in the availability of parliamentary literature in the European periphery. The early debates that had a defining influence on Eduskunta procedures were struggles between different conceptions of parliament. The procedural debates were closely connected to political agendas and ideological positions. Consequently, political groups used foreign models selectively, giving parlia- ment different purposes and character. In the thesis, the Finnish discussions are analysed through international nineteenth-century parliamentary literature and authors such as John Stuart Mill and François Guizot.

I owe a debt of gratitude for this to the people I have had the pleasure to spend time and work with during my years at university. First and foremost I thank my supervisor Kari Palonen for his support and feedback. Kari encouraged me to continue with my studies after my master’s degree and offered me a start in his Academy of Finland Professorship project The Politics of Dissensus. I want to thank my second supervisor Jussi Kurunmäki for his valuable and detailed comments on my papers and especially on the manuscript. I am thankful to the reviewers of the manuscript, Henrik Stenius and Petri Koikkalainen, whose en- couraging feedback helped me to refine and further develop my ideas. A warm thanks is also due to Bill Hellberg for revising my English and helping me to clarify my style of presentation. I have been fortunate enough to enjoy the support and friendship of bril- liant colleagues at the Department of Social Sciences and Philosophy as well as at the various academic events in which I have participated in Finland and abroad. I am grateful to my long-time friend Anna Björk and to my university roommate Jouni Tilli. Both have been invaluable not only as colleagues, but in sharing and relieving the academic angst. Early on during my PhD Jouni tipped me about the digitised Historical Newspaper Library, which led my research to new fruitful paths. Expatriate Veli-Pekka Parkkinen deserves special thanks for his friendship within and without the academy as well as for understanding my taste in music. Dear friends at our department, such as Hannele Harjunen, He- lena Hirvonen, Henna Seinälä, Johanna Kivimäki, Laura Mankki, Melissa Plath and Antti Vesikko have been invaluable in reminding that the academic com- munity is not all about work. I would also like to thank Jarno Hietalahti for his daily morning drop-bys and companionship in bodybuilding. Members of our research team, initially organised around the Politics of Dissensus project, have offered important peer support throughout my PhD. I want to also thank Pasi Ihalainen and his team for the possibilities to share ide- as with inspiring researchers and for offering me the chance to take part in in- teresting academic events. For financial support I want to thank the Alfred Kordelin Foundation, the University of Jyväskylä, the Politics of Dissensus pro- ject, the Department of Social Sciences and Philosophy and the National Gradu- ate School of Political Studies (POLITU). I owe my warmest thanks to the ad- ministrative staff of the Faculty of the Social Sciences for their advice as well as for their regular treats of cakes and goodies. Friends outside the university, especially in the fields of fly fishing, foot- ball, floorball and music, have helped me to maintain a perspective and healthy balance in life. Finally, I am extremely grateful to my parents and Aada-Maria for their support and encouragement in my studies and in life in general.

  • A Diachronic Study of Unparliamentary Language in the New Zealand Parliament, 1890-1950
    WITHDRAW AND APOLOGISE: A DIACHRONIC STUDY OF UNPARLIAMENTARY LANGUAGE IN THE NEW ZEALAND PARLIAMENT, 1890-1950 BY RUTH GRAHAM A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Applied Linguistics Victoria University of Wellington 2016 ii “Parliament, after all, is not a Sunday school; it is a talking-shop; a place of debate”. (Barnard, 1943) iii Abstract This study presents a diachronic analysis of the language ruled to be unparliamentary in the New Zealand Parliament from 1890 to 1950. While unparliamentary language is sometimes referred to as ‘parliamentary insults’ (Ilie, 2001), this study has a wider definition: the language used in a legislative chamber is unparliamentary when it is ruled or signalled by the Speaker as out of order or likely to cause disorder. The user is required to articulate a statement of withdrawal and apology or risk further censure. The analysis uses the Communities of Practice theoretical framework, developed by Wenger (1998) and enhanced with linguistic impoliteness, as defined by Mills (2005) in order to contextualise the use of unparliamentary language within a highly regulated institutional setting. The study identifies and categorises the lexis of unparliamentary language, including a focus on examples that use New Zealand English or te reo Māori. Approximately 2600 examples of unparliamentary language, along with bibliographic, lexical, descriptive and contextual information, were entered into a custom designed relational database. The examples were categorised into three: ‘core concepts’, ‘personal reflections’ and the ‘political environment’, with a number of sub-categories. This revealed a previously unknown category of ‘situation dependent’ unparliamentary language and a creative use of ‘animal reflections’.

The aim is to compare how the different aspects of the economic crises are constructed discursively in newspapers texts, and how these differences shape the interpretations of the economic crises within the regions. The study is based on three methodological bases: it is comparative; it leans on methods of textual analysis (content analysis and discourse analy- sis); and it makes pragmatic use of theories within the critical tradition in the interpretation of the texts. It introduces a spatial approach to media studies, combining it with the theory of legitimation crisis and relational thinking as a way to construct identity, space, region, and change. For the study, four newspapers were selected from regions that were different, both economically and culturally. Theoretically, the regions are seen as dynamic entities consisting of different processes. The research ques- tions were approached with the help of data collected from the newspapers between the years 1988-1997. The time-span covers the last years of the economic boom of the 1980s, the economic crisis, and the recovery at the end of the 1990s.
