Jean Sibelius -viulukilpailun näkyvyys, argumentointi ja viihteellisyys valtakunnallisessa lehdistössä 1965 ja 2005

Kansainvälinen Jean Sibelius -viulukilpailu on järjestetty Suomessa kymmenen kertaa vuodesta 1965 lähtien, ja se on vakiinnuttanut asemansa musiikki-instituutiona niin Suomen kulttuurielämässä kuin valtakunnallisessa mediassa. Tässä tutkimuksessa selvitetään kilpailun reseptiota, eli millaista näkyvyyttä Sibelius-viulukilpailu on saanut valtakunnallisissa viestintävälineissä vuosina 1965 ja 2005. Journalistisesta aineistosta poimitaan esiin niitä teemoja ja ilmaisun tapoja, jotka ovat korostuneet kilpailuun liittyvissä teksteissä. Tutkimuksessa pohditaan, onko toimittajien kirjoittamien tekstien argumentointi muuttunut neljänkymmenen vuoden aikana, ja kuinka internet sekä median viihteellistyminen ovat muuttaneet journalistista kilpailua eri viestinten kesken. Tutkimusongelmia lähestytään kvalitatiivisesti viestinnän oppiaineen tutkimusmenetelmiä hyödyntäen. Ensin sisällönanalyysin avulla hahmotetaan kokonaiskäsitys aineistosta, minkä jälkeen yksittäisiin teksteihin pureudutaan argumenttianalyysin keinoin. Tutkimusaineisto on rajattu valtakunnallisiin viestintävälineisiin, joita ovat suurimmat sanoma- ja aikakauslehdet, Yleisradion kilpailuaiheiset televisio- ja radio-ohjelmat sekä viulukilpailun internet-sivut. Sanomalehdissä julkaistu aineisto on laajuutensa ja monipuolisuutensa vuoksi tarkimpana analyysikohteena; muu tutkimusaineisto täydentää lehtitekstien perusteella tehtyjä havaintoja. Tutkimustulokset osoittavat, että Sibelius-viulukilpailu on ollut näkyvästi esillä valtakunnallisessa lehdistössä niin vuonna 1965 kuin 2005. Molempina vuosina kilpailun näkyvyys pohjautui hyvin vahvasti painettuun sanomalehteen. Lehdistöaineistosta erottuivat selvästi kansallisuuden, rodun ja sukupuolen käsittelyn näkökulmat, vaikka kielellinen ilmaisu onkin ajan mittaan neutraloitunut. Sisällönanalyyttinen tarkastelu ja argumenttianalyysit osoittavat, että toimittajien käyttämä argumentointi on muuttunut neljän vuosikymmenen aikana. Toimittajien työnkuva on monipuolistunut, ja viihteellisyys on vähitellen soluttautunut iltapäivälehdistä niin sanottuihin laatumedioihin . Internet on tehnyt kilpailun reaaliaikaisesta seuraamisesta entistä nopeampaa ja helpompaa.

Rätt som argument : Leo Mechelin och finska frågan 1886-1912

Right as an Argument. Leo Mechelin and the Finnish Question 1886-1912 At the turn of the 20th century the Finnish Question rose up as a political and juridical issue at the international arena. The vaguely précised position of Finland in the Russian empire led to diverse conclusions concerning the correctness of the February manifesto of 1899. It was predominantly among a European elite of politicians, cultural workers and academics the issue rose some interest. Finns were active making propaganda for their cause, and they put an emphasis on the claim that the right was on the Finnish side. In the study Elisabeth Stubb compare the Finnish, Russian and European statements about the Finnish Question and analyse their use of right as an argument. The Finnish Question offers at the same time a case study of a national entity which possesses a political sphere of life but is not fully independent, and its possibilities to drive its interests in an international context. Leo Mechelin (1839-1914), the leader of the Finnish propaganda organization abroad, is used as a point of departure. The biographical stance is formed into a triangle, where Leo Mechelin, the idea of right and the Finnish Question abroad are the three cornerstones. The treatment of one cornerstone sheds a ligth on the two others. The metaphor of triangulation also worked as a method to reach "a third stance" in a scinetific and political issue that usually is polarised into two opposite alternatives. An adherence to a strict legal right could not in the end offer a complete, unquestionable and satisfactory solution to the Finnsih Question, it was dependent on "the right of state wisdom and sound insight". The Finnish propaganda abroad used almost completely alternative ways of making politics. The propaganda did not have a decisive effect on countries' official politics, but gained unofficial support, especially in the public opinion and in academic statements. Mechelin claimed that the political field was dependent on public opinion and scientific research. Together with the official politics these two fields formed a triangle that shared the task of balancing the political arena and preventing it from making unwise decisions of taking an unjust turn. The international sphere worked as a balancing part in the Finnish Question. Mechelin tried by claiming the status of state for Finland's part to secure the country a place at the official international arena. At the same time, and especially when the claim was not fully adopted, he emphasised, and in a European context worked for, that right would become the guiding light not only for international relations, but also for the policy making in the inner life of the state.

Juoksuhaudoista yhteiskuntaan : Vuosien 1965-1975 sotilaallista maanpuolustusta ja puolustusvoimia koskevan joukkotiedotuksen diskursiivinen tarkastelu

The Finnish society developed rapidly in the 1960´s and 1970´s. This was result of international trends. Development of education, urbanization and wide organization of society increased discontent towards prevailing social structure and towards the power elite. Development of technology created possibility to present radical perspectives in mass media. This caused widely spread discussions dividing opinions. The purpose of this thesis was to complement research on national defence and the Finnish Defence Forces especially between years 1965 and 1975. The task of research was to clarify how changes in society and how the significance of this change was interpreted in public discussion about national defence and development of the Defence Forces. The most essential points for this thesis turned out to be discourses structured from public discussion. Main research material consisted of approximately 35000 news, editorials, articles and opinions presented in mass media supplemented by literature, committee reports and other archival sources. Frame of reference for this thesis is based on relativistic worldview. According to this, social reality is relative and there is no single truth. Environment has significant influence on the issue how knowledge and truth are formed. Data analysis was based on critical discourse. The key objective was to clarify the effects of broad changes in society using discursive methods. One essential goal was to form order of discourse using linguistic analysis and also connect discourses to wider sociocultural custom. On this thesis I came to the conclusion that on the review period there were five significant ensembles of discourse. They consisted of several discussions focused on different themes. The discourse of official security policy aimed to define national defence and the position of the Defence Forces as parts of foreign policy. Foreign policy is often perceived as the most significant part of security policy. Historical memory, geographical position of Finland and also the state contracts, changes in international warfare, tasks of the Defence Forces and increasing critic of national defence and the difference in thinking between generations formed the discourse of security policy. In the discourse of the liability to military service, the issue was about individual responsibility to society and national defence. Resisters and unarmed defence demands, encouraged by international examples were the themes. The discourse pointed out how mass media is used to influence and forced the Defence Forces to develop the practices in public information. The discourses of democracy and politics were closer to internal development of the Defence Forces to integrate more into society. The discourse of democracy focused in changing power relationships of the Defence Forces that were known as authoritarian. Issues like conscript and personnel union activity had lot of similarities to general social development. The discourse of politics presented how the Defence Forces were pushed towards parliamentary decision making. The personnel was granted the same rights as other population. Themes related to the discourse on the will to national defence were development of mental national defence, increasing education on national defence and creation of more open public information culture. According to discourses presented above I can state, that the position of the Defence Forces in society was changed between years 1965-1975. This change was advanced by the Defence Forces reformed attitude towards mass media and public information in general. Active participation in public information important became important instead of only answering topics. This positive development created an atmosphere, that was easier for the public to understand and create own pictures of the armed forces. Due to this, I can describe that the defenders and supporters of the armed forces were stuck in their trenches, until discussions presented in discourses and themes developed the Defence Forces to be better fitting part of society. Key words; society, national defence, Defence Forces, discourse, mass media, security policy, liability to military service, conscription, democracy

Vector summed sine wave tailored waveforms for dipolar excitation of ions in Paul trap mass spectrometers

A simple method to generate time domain tailored waveforms for excitation of ion axial amplitude in Paul trap mass spectrometers is described. The method is based on vector summation of sine waves followed by time domain sampling to obtain the discrete time domain data. A smoothing technique based on the time domain Kaiser window is then applied to the data so as to minimize the frequency domain Gibb's oscillations. The dynamic range of the time domain signal is controlled by phase modulation and time extension of the time domain waveform. Copyright (C) 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
