  • 1 a Slightly Slummier Area? Negotiations of Place-Bound
    A slightly slummier area? Negotiations of place-bound identities through social spatialisations and unofficial toponyms1 Jani Vuolteenaho, Hanna Lappalainen & Terhi Ainiala University of Helsinki ABSTRACT: In the article, spatialisations (discourses of ideal or stereotyped spaces) are conceptualised as powerful discourses of the surrounding society, providing resources for place-bound identity construction in interaction. We combine a sociolinguistic analysis with Bakhtinian dialogism to understand how such ‘third’ voices in dialogue empower and pluralise self- and other- positionings embedded in the evocations of unofficial place names. Empirically, the focus is on toponyms that divide the socially mixed Vuosaari suburb in Helsinki into ‘older’ and ‘newer’ territories. The results show that when the stereotypes of ‘good’ and ‘bad’ neighbourhoods or other spatialisations interpenetrate the uses of ‘Old’ and ‘New Vuosaari’, they open room for the (re-)voicing of the meanings of these toponyms for highly differentiated social ends. With the Bakhtinian framework bridging between socio-spatial theory and sociolinguistics, the article develops a spatially sensitised approach to analyse the entanglements of the micro-level contexts of interaction with the macro-level discourses of meaning-giving. KEY WORDS: unofficial place names, social spatialisations, self- and other-positioning, place-bound identities 1 ABSTRACT IN FINNISH: Sosiaaliset spatialisaatiot ovat yhteiskunnassa vaikuttavia tilaa koskevia ideologisia diskursseja.

Samalla liitosalue siirtyy YTV:n lippujärjestelmän piiriin. Joukkoliikenne liitosalueelle hoidetaan ensimmäisessä vaiheessa pääasiassa U-linjoilla, joita täydennetään alu- een sisäisillä pienkalustolinjoilla. Osa pienkalustolinjojen vuoroista jatkaa Itäkeskuk- seen. U-linjoja ovat 830 Kampista Landbon kautta Kalkkirantaan, 835 Kampista Nik- kilään ja 840 Kampista Porvoon suuntaan. Tässä raportissa esitetään pienkalustolinjojen suunnitelma reitteineen ja aikataului- neen, sekä taustatiedoksi U-linjojen aikatauluja, väestötietoja ja infratarkasteluja. Suunnitelman lähtökohtana ovat U-linjojen ja väestötietojen lisäksi muun muassa koulumatkatarpeet. Pienkalustolinjat toimivat suunnitelman mukaan syöttölinjoina U- linjoille. Pienkalustolinjoja ovat linjat 91 ja 93. Linja 91 on suunniteltu koulumatkayh- teyksiä varten Länsisalmesta Sakarinmäen kautta Landbohon. K-lähdöt ajetaan Ta- losaaren ja Kappelin kautta. Linja 93 liikennöi Landbohon, K-lähdöt Karhusaaren kautta Landbohon ja V-lähdöt Karhusaareen. A-lähdöt ajetaan Itäkeskukseen. Liitosalueen tärkeimmät kohteet ovat Landbon ja Karhusaaren asuinalueet,

  • Analysing Residential Real Estate Investments in Helsinki
    Aleksi Tapio Analysing residential real estate investments in Helsinki Metropolia University of Applied Sciences Bachelor of Business Administration European Business Administration Bachelor’s Thesis 29.04.2019 Abstract Author Aleksi Tapio Title Analysing residential real estate investments in Helsinki Number of Pages 35 pages + 2 appendices Date 29 April 2019 Degree Bachelor of Business Administration Degree Programme European Business Administration Instructor/Tutor Daryl Chapman, Senior Lecturer Real estate is a commonly used investment vehicle. However, due to residential real estate’s heterogeneous market, picking a good deal is hard and participating can be scary due to its capital intensiveness. The investor has to understand the market and know how to conduct and analysis. The paper addresses the fundamentals of investing in Helsinki under the Finnish legislation. Helsinki has grown as a city for the past years. Evaluating the city’s growth opportunities wields the investors with confidence on the cyclical real estate market. The market analysis will also show the differences between the locations within Helsinki, opening up potential for investors of many kind. When looking at the process of analysing, the research in this paper focuses the whole spectrum of it: which tools can be used to save time, how to correctly calculate returns and risks and what are the downfalls and benefits of the calculations. The methodology of hedging risks in real estate investing will cover the common fears such as rising interest rate, and will discuss the use of real estate as a hedge against inflation. The paper uses public data sources for comparative data analysis to find variables which affect the price, and draw conclusions according to the data.

Thus, equal opportunities for exercising in different places is one important factor of environmental justice and segregation prevention. Currently, there are no openly available scientific studies about actual physical activities in different parts of the Helsinki Metropolitan Area other than sports barometers. In the lack of comprehensive official data sources, user-generated data, like social media, may be used as a proxy for measuring the levels and geographical distribution of sports activities. In this thesis, I aim to assess 1) how Twitter tweets could be used as an indicator of sports activities, 2) how the sports tweets are distributed spatially and 3) which socio-economic factors can predict the number of sports tweets. For recognizing the tweets related to sports, out of 38.5 million tweets, I used Named Entity Matching with a list of sports-related keywords in Finnish, English and Estonian.
