Net working / Networking: Citizen Initiated Internet Politics

Häyhtiö, Tapio; Rinne, Jarmo — Tue, 16 Jun 2009 14:20:17 +0300

Publisher: Tampere University Press

Net Working / Networking explores the variety in use and approaches to political participation and mobilisation occurring on the Internet. The Internet is viewed as a tool, channel and forum enabling citizens to make an impact on social, cultural and political change. Civic empowerment through the Internet emerges in people's everyday life. Big politics is broken into pieces to become a multitude of small, more personalised political engagements. The Internet is a powerful medium for gathering coalitions and organising mobilisations of all kinds. It also transforms political styles and types of activities.

The chapters in the book represent various viewpoints mixing theory with empirical cases. Topics addressed range from e-democratic participation to Internet piracy. The main focus of the studies in this book is to highlight the potential capacity of computer-mediated communication to increase people power. The Internet is crucially embedded in the activities of the multi-level political life-world and hardly any dedicated actor (or actors who want to influence public matters) can overlook its importance to contemporary politics. Our purpose is to outline political struggles arising from citizens' own experiences of creating virtual open spaces that they shape in personally distinctive ways.

Tutkimuksellinen kehittämistoiminta: Näkökulmia kehittämisprosessiin, osallistumiseen ja tiedontuotantoon

Työelämän muutokset ovat nopeita. Muutosten tuomiin haasteisiin vastataan muun muassa kehittämistoiminnan avulla. Sitä toteuttavat yksittäiset työntekijät, organisaatiot ja verkostot, mutta kehittämistoimintaa on myös paikallisella, alueellisella ja kansallisella tasolla. Sitä voidaan pitää keskeisenä nykypäivän työelämän osaamisalueena.

Kirja tarkastelee tutkimuksellisen kehittämistoiminnan metodologiaa. Kehittämistoimintaa lähestytään prosessin, toimijoiden osallisuuden ja tiedontuotannon näkökulmista. Tavoitteena on kiinnittää huomiota systemaattiseen kehittämistoimintaan. Kehittämistoiminnan prosessiin sisältyvä tutkimuksellisuus tukee käyttökelpoisen tiedon tuottamista ja levittämistä.

Kirja on työelämän kehittäjille ja korkeakouluopiskelijoille suunnattu oppikirja. Se kiinnittää huomiota kehittämistoiminnan periaatteisiin ja toteutustapoihin. Miten tutkimuksellinen kehittämistoiminta perustellaan metodologisesti? Onko kehittämismenetelmillä ja tutkimusmenetelmillä eroa? Eteneekö kehittämisprosessi suunnitelmallisesti vai prosessimaisesti? Mitä osallistavalla kehittämistoiminnalla tarkoitetaan? Kirjan voi tilata myös painettuna versiona Tampereen yliopiston kirjaston virtuaalikirjakaupassa.

Organisaatioteoriat

Johtajien on osattava organisoida asiat niin, että ne sujuvat inhimillisesti, innovatiivisesti ja tuloksellisesti. Taito organisoida on menestykselle jopa tärkeämpää kuin talous ja teknologia, koska organisaatio määrittää niiden aseman ja paikan kokonaisuudessaan.

Taito organisoida riippuu johtajien halusta ja valmiudesta ajatella organisaatioita eri näkökulmista ja ulottuvuuksista. Taito ajatella organisaatioita edustaa henkistä avaruutta, joustavuutta ja luovuutta. Se määrittää konkreettisten johtamistaidollisten työkalujen ja välineiden käytön organisaatiossa.

Kirja esittelee keskeisimmät teoreettiset tavat ajatella organisaatioita. Se on tarkoitettu jokaiselle, joka opiskelee, kehittää ja johtaa organisaatioita. Se osoittaa teoreettisen ajattelun dynaamisuutta, mutta myös aikaisempien teoreettisten saavutusten kestävyyttä ja merkittävyyttä ajan pyörteissä ja myrskyissä. Kirjan voi tilata myös painettuna versiona Tampereen yliopiston kirjaston virtuaalikirjakaupassa.

Alastomuuden oikeutus: Julkistettujen alastonvalokuvien moderneja ideaaleja Suomessa 1900-1940

Publisher: SKS -Suomalaisen Kirjallisuuden Seura

Alastomuus ja valokuva on yhdistelmä, joka monen mielessä herättää epäilyksiä kuvien kunniallisuudesta. Tutkimuksessaan Alastomuuden oikeutus Johanna Frigård tarkastelee erilaisia tapoja tuottaa alastonvalokuviin niitä puoltaneita ihanteita. Taiteeseen vetoaminen oli yksi tärkeimmistä oikeuttamisen keinoista, mutta ei suinkaan ainoa. Vuosisadan alun miesatleettien kuvat, 1920- ja 1930-lukujen naisalastontutkielmat ja kasvavan harrastajakuvaajajoukon lapsikuvat muovasivat kansalaisen, taiteilijan, uuden naisen ja lapsuuden ideaaleja populaarikulttuurin ja korkeataiteen välimaastossa. Moninainen aineisto osoittaa, että alastonvalokuvilla ei ole ennalta lukkoon lyötyjä ja itsestään selviä merkityksiä, vaan niiden välittämä sisältö muuntuu aikakauden, sukupuolen ja iän, kuvausympäristön ja kuvien esittämisyhteyden mukaan.
