Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 ABSTRACT THE FIFTIES IN FINLAND Finnish society in the 1950s from the perspective of the cultural and industrial-banking elites The main topic of the dissertation is the 1950s in Finland, analysed from the perspective of the cultural and industrial-banking elites. During the first post-war decade, Finland witnessed an immense political reorientation in terms of both foreign and domestic politics occurring as a result of the war. Such circumstances were a salient influence on the position and role of the cultural and industrial-banking ehte who, like the rest of the Finnish society, were required to adjust to the post-war circumstances. The process of their adaptability is of particular significance for this study. The cultural and economic background of Finland in the 1950s is scrutinised within the thesis to illustrate the post-war situation and to facilitate an understanding of the subject. The first part embodies the definitions related to the role of the cultural elite. An emphasis is placed on the old Academy of Finland and the University of Helsinki, and their educational function in the post-war period. Two generations are involved in the study: the older, which comprises members of the cultural elite already active during the inter-war period; and the younger, who began their academic career after the war. Their mutual confrontation is widely discussed within the context of the dissertation. In the second part, the industrial-banking elite’s economic and social involvement is identified. The economic situation of post-war Finland is outlined together with the significance of Finnish integration into the Western European economic structures, which occurred during the 1950s. The role of the industrial-banking elite within the process of integration is emphasised as it was of crucial importance. The conclusion leads into a twofold comparison: firstly, between the younger and older generation of the cultural elite, where the first generation was strongly under the influence of the inter­ war ideology and the latter already enjoyed the new opportunities created in the post-war period. Secondly, a comparison is made between the adaptability of the cultural and industrial-banking elites, who both reacted differently to the post-war situation. This leads to the conclusion that the industrial and financial circles appeared to be more responsive to the changes and less dependent on Finnish inter-war patriotic ideology.

  • 4.Murtomäki 2017.10192 Words
    Sibelius in the Context of the Finnish-German History Veijo Murtomäki Introduction The life and career of a composer cannot be considered as an isolated case without taking into account the wider context. The history of ideas and ideologies is always part of any serious enquiry into an artist’s personal history. Therefore we must bear in mind at least four points when considering the actions of artist and his or her country. Firstly, as the eminent Finnish historian Matti Klinge has observed, "the biggest challenge for understanding history is trying to situate oneself in the preconditions of the time-period under scrutiny while remembering that it did not know what the posterity knows."[1] Writing history is not primarily a task whereby the historian provides lines for actors to speak, but rather is an attempt to understand and explain why something happened, and to construct a context including all of the possible factors involved in a certain historical process. Secondly, supporting (or not opposing) an ideology prevailing at a certain time does not mean that the supporter (or non-opponent) is committing a crime. We could easily condemn half of the European intellectuals for supporting Fascism, Nazism, Communism or Maoism, or just for having become too easily attracted by these – in their mind – fascinating, visionary ideologies to shape European or world history. Thirdly, history has always been written by the winners – and thus, historiography tends to be distorted by exaggerating the evil of the enemy and the goodness of the victor. A moral verdict must be reached when we are dealing with absolute evil, but it is rare to find exclusively good or bad persons or civilizations; therefore history is rarely an issue of black and white.

  • Strategic Low Profile and Bridge-Building: Finnish Foreign Policy During Mauno Koivisto's Presidency
    Strategic Low Profile and Bridge-Building: Finnish Foreign Policy during Mauno Koivisto's Presidency Michiko Takagi Graduate Student of Nagoya University 1. Introduction This paper focuses on Finnish foreign policy conducted by Mauno Koivisto, who was the President of Finland between 1981 and 1994. In the beginning of 80s when he took office as president, relationship between superpowers was aggravated and the international tension flared up again, just called as “New Cold War”. However, after the change of political leader of the Soviet Union in 1985, the East and West tension relieved drastically, which eventually led to the end of the Cold War and reunification of Germany. Furthermore, a number of remarkable transformations in Europe began to occur, such as democratization in East European states, collapse of the Soviet Union and acceleration of European economic and political integration. During the Cold War, Finland maintained its independence by implementing “good-neighboring policies” towards the Soviet Union based on YYA treaty, bilateral military treaty with the Soviet Union (1948)1）, on the other hand, in spite of this, by pursuing policy of neutrality. In the period of “Détente” of 70s, Urho Kekkonen, the President of Finland at the time, carried out policy of active neutrality, which culminated in success of “Helsinki Process” in 1975 and this Finnish policy of bridge-building between East and West increased its presence in the international community. However, Finnish position and presence as a neutral country fluctuated during the “New Cold War” and the following end of the Cold War.

Oikeistoradikalismin nousu sai aikaan tilanteen, jossa tasavaltalainen valtiojärjestys oli uhattuna. Oikeiston uhka kiteytyi kansalaisliikkeessä, jota kutsuttiin lapuanliikkeeksi. Käsittelen tutkimuksessani lapuanliikkeen aikaa, pääpiirteissään marraskuusta 1929 huhtikuuhun 1932. Kansallinen Edistyspuolue, jonka nuorsuomalaiset tasavaltalaiset olivat perustaneet joulukuussa 1918, seisoi vahvasti laillisuuden takana. Tutkimukseni pääosassa on edistyspuolueen keskeisten henkilöiden toiminta. Tässä toiminnassa korostuu pienen helsinki- läisyhdistyksen, Vapaamielisten Klubin, rooli.
