Kaikissa EU-maissa on laadittu ensimmäiset vesienhoitosuunnitelmat, joiden avulla tavoitellaan pinta- ja pohjavesien hyvää tilaa vuonna 2015. Pohjavesin osalta tavoitteena on pohjavesien hyvä kemiallinen ja määrällinen tila. Vesienhoito on osa koko Euroopan laajuista, vesipolitiikan puitedirektiiviin pohjautuvaa työtä. Kokemäenjoen-Saaristomeren-Selkämeren vesienhoitoalueelle laaditussa vesienhoitosuunnitelmassa asetettujen tavoitteiden saavuttamiseksi on Lounais-Suomen alueen pohjavesille laadittu toimenpideohjelma. Lisäksi alueelle on laadittu kaksi pintavesien hoidon toimenpideohjelmaa, joista toinen Varsinais-Suomeen ja toinen Satakuntaan. Lounais-Suomen pohjavesien toimenpideohjelmaan vuoteen 2015 on koottu tiedot pohjavettä heikentävistä toiminnoista, riskipohjavesialueista ja selvityskohteista sekä pohjavesien määrällisestä ja kemiallisesta tilasta. Toimenpideohjelmassa esitetään myös tärkeimmät toimenpiteet, joiden avulla pohjavesien määrällinen ja kemiallinen hyvä tila pyritään saavuttamaan ja ylläpitämään vuoteen 2015 mennessä. Pohjavesien osalta tarkastelu kohdistuu vedenhankinnan kannalta tärkeisiin pohjavesialueisiin (luokka I) ja vedenhankintaan soveltuviin pohjavesialueisiin (luokka II). Lounais-Suomessa pohjavesialueita on yhteensä 295, joista I-luokan alueita on 219 kappaletta ja II-luokan alueita 76 kappaletta. Toimenpideohjelmassa tarkastellaan tarkemmin pohjavesialueita, joilla pohjaveden tila on heikentynyt tai hyvä tila on uhattuna ihmistoiminnasta johtuen. Lounais-Suomen alueella merkittävimmät pohjavettä vaarantavat ja muuttavat toiminnot ovat teollisuus ja yritystoiminta, pilaantuneet maa-alueet, liikenne ja tienpito sekä asutus ja maankäyttö. Myös maa-ainesten otolla, maa- ja metsätaloudella sekä vedenotolla ja tekopohjaveden muodostamisella voi olla pohjaveden laatua heikentäviä vaikutuksia. Riskialueiksi nimettiin 34 pohjavesialuetta, selvityskohteiksi 48 ja seurantakohteiksi 5 pohjavesialuetta. Huonoon tilaan on kemiallisen tilan arvioinnin kautta luokiteltu 9 pohjavesialuetta, joiden ongelmat johtuvat mm. torjunta-aineista, kloridista, liuottimista, polttonesteiden lisäaineista ja raskasmetalleista. Pohjavesien määrällinen tila on kaikilla Lounais-Suomen pohjavesialueilla hyvä. Kemiallisen hyvän tilan saavuttaminen ja sen ylläpitäminen vaativat toimenpiteitä, joista tärkeimpiä ovat riskitoimintojen ohjaaminen pohjavesialueiden ulkopuolelle, pohjavesien suojelusuunnitelmat, pilaantuneiden maa-alueiden tutkimukset ja kunnostukset sekä tiealueiden pohjavesisuojausten rakentaminen. Pohjavesien hyvää kemiallista tilaa ei saavuteta kaikilla pohjavesialueilla vuoteen 2015 mennessä, vaikka esitetyt toimenpiteet toteutettaisiin. Toimenpideohjelma tarkistetaan kuuden vuoden välein, jolloin arvioidaan uudestaan pohjavesien tila ja toimet pohjavesien hyvän tilan saavuttamiseksi.

Nature, science and technology. The image of Finland through popular enlightenment texts 1870-1920 This doctoral thesis looks at how Finnish popular enlightenment texts published between 1870 and 1920 took part in the process of forming a genuine Finnish national identity. The same process was occurring in other Nordic countries at the time and the process in Finland was in many ways influenced by them, particularly Sweden. In Finland the political realities under Russian rule especially during the Russification years, and the fact that its history was considered to be short compared to other European countries, made this nation-building process unique. The undertaking was led by members of the national elite, influential in the cultural, academic as well as political arenas, who were keen to support the foundation of a modern Finnish identity. The political realities and national philosophy of history necessitated a search for elements of identity in nature and the Finnish landscape, which were considered to have special national importance: Finland was very much determined as a political entity on the basis of its geography and nature. Nature was also used as means of taking a cultural or political view in terms of, for example, geographical facts such as the nation s borders or the country s geographical connections to Western Europe. In the building of a proper national identity the concept of nature was not, however, static, but was more or less affected by political and economic progress in society. This meant that nature, or the image of the national landscape, was no longer seen only as a visual image of the national identity, but also as a source of science, technology and a prosperous future. The role of technology in this process was very much connected to the ability to harness natural resources to serve national interests. The major change in this respect had occurred by the early 20th century, when indisputable scientific progress altered the relationship between nature and technology. Concerning technology, the thesis is mainly interested in the large and at the time modern technological manifestations, such as railways, factories and industrial areas in Finland. Despite the fact that the symbiosis between national nature and international but successfully localized technology was in Finnish popular enlightenment literature depicted mostly as a national success story, concerns began to arise already in last years of the 19th century. It was argued that the emerging technology would eventually destroy Finland s natural environment, and therefore the basis of its national identity. The question was not how to preserve nature through natural science, but more how to conserve such natural resources and images that were considered to be the basis of national identity and thus of the national history. National parks, isolated from technology, and distant enough so as to have no economic value, were considered the solution to the problem. Methodologically the thesis belongs to the genre of science and technology studies, and offers new viewpoints with regard to both the study of Finnish popular enlightenment literature and the national development process as a whole.

The development of botanical Finnish: Elias Lönnrot as the creator of new terminology In the 19th century the Finnish language was intentionally developed to meet the demands of civilised society and Finnish-language science. The development of the language involved several people from different fields of science. This study examines this enormous project in the field of botany. By which methods were scientific terms formed, and for which reasons were those terms used? Why has a certain word been chosen to represent a particular concept? The material of this study is the terminology of plant morphology in Finnish that Elias Lönnrot developed in the middle of the 19th century. The terms of plant morphology denote and describe the parts of the plant and the relationships between those parts. For instance, the terms emi pistill , hede stamen , terälehti petal and verholehti sepal , which are nowadays familiar in the general language, were used for the first time in Lönnrot s texts. The study integrates the methods of lexicology and terminology. In lexicology, the word and its various meanings serve as the focus, whereas the theory of terminology focuses on the concept and concept systems. A new, consciously developed terminology can be understood through the old, familiar vocabulary and structures as well as through the new, logical term system. Lönnrot s botanical terminology can be divided into three groups depending on their origin: 1) 19% of all terms have been accepted from the existing vocabulary and used in their original meanings, 2) 11% of all terms have been chosen from the existing vocabulary and used in the new, specific botanical meanings, and 3) 70% of all terms have been created on the basis of the existing vocabulary and used in the new, specific botanical meanings. Therefore, the study reveals that domestic materials primarily morphosemantic neologisms form the Finnish terminology of plant morphology. Characteristic of Lönnrot s botanical terms is the utilisation of the vocabulary of various Finnish dialects and particular repeating elements. Repeating elements include, for example, the prefixes that come from botanical Latin or Swedish as well as the particular Finnish derivation types. Such structures form term systems that reflect scientific concept systems. Two thirds of the created new words are formed loosely or precisely according to either Latin or Swedish terms; one third is formed completely differently from its equivalents in the foreign languages. Approximately half of the chosen terms are formed differently from the Latin and Swedish terms. It is worth noting that many loan translations use rare vocabulary from Finnish dialects as equivalents to foreign parts of terms. Lönnrot aimed to inspire scientific terminology with Finland s own language, thus making scientific text accessible to the Finnish agricultural population.

The international aid that the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland received between 1945 and 1948 is the topic of this historical study, in which the process of reconstruction of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland is examined in a European context. The key questions are related not only to the achievements of the reconstruction programs but also to the purposes and objectives of the donating churches. The study pays particular attention to the changes in the ecclesiastical, political and economic fields after the Second World War and asks how the tense political atmosphere of a divided world affected the reconstruction programs of the churches. It is possible to distinguish three periods within the European church reconstruction process. To begin with, the year 1945 was, in general, the year of organization. Many churches had started planning reconstruction work already during the war, but only after the conflict in Europe had ceased did they have a chance to renew contacts, assess the damage and begin operations. The years 1946 and 1947 were the main years of the work. Large reconstruction organizations from American churches donated money, food, clothes and vitamins worth millions of dollars to the European churches. The work started to diminish as early as 1948, partly because Marshall Plan aid and the rising standard of living had reduced the need for material assistance in many countries and partly because other problems overshadowed the reconstruction work of the World Council of Churches: for example, most WCC resources at this time were directed to refugee programs and to Third World churhces. The most important donors from the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland's point of view were the American Section of the Lutheran World Federation, the World Council of Churches and the Churches of Denmark, Sweden and England. The amount of money and value of goods received by the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland totaled approximately 2.5 million dollars, from which about 60 per cent came from the Lutheran churches of America. The importance of the Lutheran World Federation was even greater because of the productive financial arrangements that increased the American Lutheran funds. In addition the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland imported hundreds of tons of tax-free coffee and sold this to Finns. The money gained was used mostly to rebuild destroyed church buildings and to support the work of different ecclesiastical organizations. Smaller amounts were used for scholarship programs, youth work, and supporting sick and disabled church workers.

The dissertation analyzes Finnish consensual culture in public discussion and journalism in Helsingin Sanomat (HS). The consensual Finnish political culture has evolved and persisted over a long period of time and it has been affected by historical circumstances as well as the dynamics of political and journalistic structures and actors. A historical chronology is drawn in the study regarding the nature and development of consensus culture in 20th century Finland. This political culture is traced by looking at public discussion on globalization at the turn of the millennium. Globalization as a concept has been contested and various societal actors have given different meanings to it. This research looks at how the globalization discussion in HS during the years 1992-2004 constructs consensus. Helsingin Sanomat (and its predecessor Päivälehti) has been an important actor in Finnish journalism and the public sphere almost since its founding 120 years ago. The history of the paper is tightly connected to Finland s general political history and history of the public sphere. Moreover, the paper s connections to the societal elite have always been close. The central question in this research was to see how the globalization discussion in HS evolved in relation to consensus as well as legitimate controversies. As a result it is stated that the globalization question has clearly divided the Finnish societal actors. The most powerful societal elites (government, most civil servants, corporate sector) had a profile of being pro globalization. They communicated their globalization strategy as a national, unified way of thinking. Other elites which have been losing their influence (the president, labor union, part of members of parliament), as well as civil society actors tried to bring forward conflicting views in relation to globalization. The paper did give some room to these elements, but on the other hand it also tried to keep up the consensual discussion culture especially in the editorial section. In line with its traditions Helsingin Sanomat strived to create national unity. At the same time it did not give adequate attention to the changes brought about by globalization to the positions and roles of various elites and civil society actors. In this discussion HS seemed more like a medium of the state than as a critical and independent actor. Journalism has an important role in upholding and also reviving the Finnish political culture and public discussion. From this point of view it is problematic if the area of so called legitimate controversy in broad societal questions like globalization becomes very limited. As the Finnish elites are small and there is no considerable competition between them, journalism should actively bring up controversial issues. This task becomes complicated, however, if the elite circles are closed up and no initiatives come from their ranks. Political decision making as well as democracy can suffer, if issues are not brought to the public agenda.

Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli selvittää, miten koetun oikeudenmukaisuuden eri ulottuvuudet ovat yhteydessä työntekijöiden sisäiseen ja ulkoiseen motivaatioon. Näiden lisäksi tutkittiin, onko jokin koetun oikeudenmukaisuuden ulottuvuuksista negatiivisessa yhteydessä motivaation puutteeseen (amotivaatioon). Tutkimuksen tavoitteena oli myös tuottaa käytäntöön sovellettavaa empiriaan perustuvaa tietoa koetun oikeudenmukaisuuden merkityksestä organisaatiokontekstissa työmotivaation näkökulmasta katsottuna. Oikeudenmukaisuutta lähestytään useamman teorian näkökulmasta, mikä näkyy myös käytetyn mittarin valinnassa. Motivaatiota käsitellään lähinnä itsemääräytymisteorian näkökulmasta. Samaan teoriaan pohjautuu tutkimuksessa käytetty motivaatiomittari. Tutkimus toteutettiin toimeksiantona. Aineisto kerättiin maaliskuussa 2010 kertakyselynä Nordea Pankki Suomi Oyj:n työntekijöiltä sähköisen kyselylomakkeen avulla. Ennen varsinaista kyselyä tehtiin lomakkeen esitestaus. Otos koostuu 1090 havainnosta. Aineisto kerättiin aluksi Webropoliin, josta se myöhemmin siirrettiin PASW 18.0 tilasto-ohjelmaan, jossa varsinainen aineiston analysointi tapahtui. Aineiston tutkiminen aloitettiin sitä kuvailevien tunnuslukujen avulla. Varsinaisina tutkimusmenetelminä käytettiin faktorianalyysiä sekä lineaarista ja logistista regressioanalyysia. Apuna käytettiin myös korrelaatiomatriisia. Tulokset osoittavat, että koettu oikeudenmukaisuus on positiivisessa yhteydessä työntekijöiden sisäiseen ja ulkoiseen motivaatioon sekä negatiivisessa yhteydessä amotivaatioon. Regressioanalyysin perusteella sisäistä motivaatiota selitti parhaiten menettelytapojen oikeudenmukaisuus. Myös vuorovaikutuksen oikeudenmukaisuus selitti sitä, mutta ei yhtä vahvasti. Ulkoista motivaatiota selitti parhaiten jakava oikeudenmukaisuus. Logistisen regressioanalyysin perusteella amotivaatiota ennusti parhaiten menettelytapojen oikeudenmukaisuuden puute. Myös koettu vuorovaikutuksen oikeudenmukaisuuden puute ennusti amotivaatiota, mutta ei yhtä vahvasti.

Goals. Immigrant pupils are over-represented in special education. Linguistic difficulties are the most pivotal reasons for social exclusion of immigrant pupils during their school career. Addedly reading, writing, and language development disorders are the most common reasons for both part-time and extensive special education. I studied class teachers' perceptions of the typical linguistic difficulties of pupils who speak Finnish as their second language and of those who have dyslexia, because I suspect that telling the difference between linguistic competency in progress and the symptoms of dyslexia isn't easy. I look for overlappings in the perceptions of linguistic difficulties, their causes and their support measures, which would reveal the challenges in recognizing linguistic difficulties, which in turn might partly explain why immigrant pupils are over-represented in special education. Methods. This study was carried out as structured individual interviews with nine class teachers from the Helsinki Metropolitan Area. To increase reliability, complementary information was gathered about the same phenomenon with a questionnaire that each interviewee filled out at the end of the interview. It was required that the interviewees have experience of teaching both dyslexic pupils and pupils who speak Finnish as a second language. The material analysis was mainly deductive, but the material that wasn't in line with the theoretical frame of reference was analyzed inductively. Results and conclusions. There were overlappings in the class teachers' perceptions of the linguistic difficulties, support measures fitting them and, based on the questionnaire results, also of the causes of these difficulties. Additionally all the interviewees said it to be difficult to recognize dyslexia in a pupil who speaks Finnish as a second language. I came to the conclusion that distinguishing different linguistic difficulties from one another is a challenge to which class teachers don't always feel competent to rise, which is why they consider the assistance of special teachers and other professionals beneficial.

This study describes how students influence their possibilities of participating in whole-class conversation. The main objective is to investigate the verbal and non-verbal resources used by students to modify the participant roles of the ongoing conversation. The resources studied are attention-getting devices such as hand-raising and address terms, recycling and other forms of collaborative talk, means of reference to persons, such as pronouns, as well as gaze and other embodied resources. The theoretical and methodological framework adopted in this study is that of conversation analysis. The data consist of ten videotaped lessons of Finnish as a second language in three secondary schools (grades 7 9) in southern Finland; the number of students per group varies from five to ten. Finnish has a triple role in the data as the medium of teaching, the target language, and the lingua franca used by the participants. The findings show that the multi-party context of the classroom conversation is both a disadvantage and an affordance for student participation. The students possess multiple tools to overcome and deal with the encumbrances posed by the large number of participants. They combine various techniques in order to actively compete for public turns, and they monitor the ongoing conversation carefully to adjust their participation to the activities of other participants. Sometimes the whole-class conversation splits into two separate conversations, but participants usually orient to the overlapping nature of the talk and tend to bring the conversations together rapidly. On the other hand, students skilfully make use of other participants and their talk to increase and diversify their own possibilities to participate. For example, they recycle elements of each other s turns or refer to the currently speaking student in order to gain access to the conversation. Students interact with each other even during the public whole-class conversation. Students orient to one another often even when talking to the teacher, but they also address talk directly to one another, as part of the public conversation. In this way students increase each other s possibilities of participation. The interaction is constantly multi-layered: in addition to the pedagogic agenda, the students orient to social goals, for example, by teasing each other and putting on humorous performances for their peer audience. The student student participation arises spontaneously from a genuine need to communicate and thus represents authentic language use: by talking to each other, often playfully, the students appropriate Finnish vocabulary, grammar, and expressions. In this way the structure of the interaction reflects the particular nature of Finnish as a second language lessons: all talk serves the pedagogic goal of enabling students to communicate in the target language.
