Previous studies had shown an association between the a-active radon daughters and elevated lung cancer risk among miners. Convincing evidence of the risk among the general population exposed to radon indoors was, however, lacking. A descriptive analysis was first conducted in an area in southern Finland with high indoor radon exposure.

First and foremost, I would like to mention Vilho NIITEMAA, Professor Emeritus of General History at the University of Turku, who originally guided me to a topic of research which has since then dominated my activities in many ways. In conjunction with Professor Niitemaa's Migration History Project, I have had a number of opportunities to carry out research in the United States and Canada. These visits have also given me the personal occasion to interiorize those factors making to diminish or increase the probability of return, towards which each and every migrant was forced to clarify his stance, and which form the central theme in my dissertation.

The reasons for the school shooting were multifarious and complex, and the shooting constituted a deliberate criminal act showing the methodical nature that constitutes an essential element of murder. The marginalization of the perpetrator was of a special kind, the result of several contributory factors. The family, upbringing and the school community but also society as a whole, nowadays including the Internet environment, are in a prime position for preventing marginalization.

Muuttaminen pääkaupunkiseudulle kohensi työttömien työllistymismahdolli- suuksia erityisesti pitkällä aikavälillä. Myös työmatkapendelöinti oli tyypillistä Uudenmaan työmarkkinoille. Tämä on seurausta siitä, että pääkaupunkiseutu on merkittävä työssäkäyntialue lähialueiden työllisille. Pääkaupunkiseudun työssä- käyntialue laajentui 1990-luvulla erityisesti muun Helsingin seutukunnan alueel- le. Lopuksi arvioitiin tulevaa työvoiman kysyntää ja avautuvien työpaikkojen määriä erilaisissa ammattiryhmissä suhteessa Uudenmaan omien nuorisoikäluok- kien tuoman työvoimatarjontaan ja toisaalta Uudenmaan työvoiman muuttovoit- toon ja pendelöintiin.

The study aims at examining the complex issue from various societal view- points, at recognizing the desired future path and further examining the measures that need to be carried out in order to achieve the desired future. The theoretical framework consists of different sectors in future studies. The research methodology includes mapping of the current circumstances and defining the key fac- tors. Furthermore, the theory section covers the field of futures studies on a general level and the most distinct research principles and -methods are presented. The circumstances in Vihti today are challenging regarding public transportation. Vihti is not a member of a regional transit joint local authority, even though regional transport system plans cover Vihti as well. There are no railway connections for public transportation in Vihti. Public transportation is organized with bus connections on a market-basis and the share of public transportation users among all commuters is ra- ther small. This study aims at recognizing societal chains of influence regarding public transpor- tation. A most desirable future image was chosen through workshop procedure using a futures table. The objective is to describe the deeper understanding of entities that form through futures research.

  • The Uusimaa Road Region 75 Years
    The Uusimaa Road Region 75 years 1995 Og 'Where di7it all start..1____ In the 16th century, Finland had some 4,000 kilo- metres of public roads. Road construction and maintenance was the responsibility of peasants. The governors of provinces, rural police chiefs and bridge bailiffs served as the local road authorities. The Kings of Sweden and their Councils issued road decrees, but centralized administration was not created until 1797. This administration, or the Royal Rapids Clearing Board, led by Field Marshal, Count Wilhelm Klingsborg, was mainly responsible Mauritz for the clearing of rapids and construction of mills for hydropower. Peasants were still required to maintain roads. When Finland was annexed to Russia after the war of 1808-1809, the Board con- tinued its work under different names: the Board for Rapids Clearing and Canal Operations (1816- 1840), the Board for Roads and Waterworks (1840-1860), and finally the Supreme Board for Roads and Waterways (1860-1925) For the management and supervision of work, the country was divided into six regions: Oulu, Vaasa, Tampere (since 1869 Western Häme), Päi- janne, Kuopio, and Saimaa. Each region was headed by a regional engineer. Most of Uusimaa The 'real' Karl Fredrik Appeigren worked as the regional engi- neer in the Uusimaa Region, first temporarily from 1920 to 1925, and then on a permanent basis from 1925 to 1931. -;, ,.-., Province was originally included in the Paijänne Region, with the exception of some areas in western Uusimaa.
