Finnish dairy farmers’ perceptions of justice in the transition to carbon-neutral farming
Environmental and political debate concerning the role of agriculture in sustainability has long been on the agenda. However, owing to climate change, an analysis of the transition to a low-carbon society must also be considered from the perspective of justice. Dairy farming, in particular, faces pressure in this context, when contemplating changing consumer behaviors and reduction in the carbon footprint of dairy products. Accordingly, many dair…
Justice in transitions
Just transition is gaining increasing attention.The need to consider social justice in sustainability transitions is finally being acknowledged.Research on this issue has, to date, mainly concentrated on energy systems.In this paper, we examine how the elaboration of dietary transition widens the spectrum of justice questions in sustainability transitions research.We explicate the arising normative questions along the dimensions of distributive, …
Ancient Traditions and Modern Challenges
In order to show the mutual importance and usefulness of classical and modern Indology to each other, the author presents a series of cases, where ancient things are present (and often reinterpreted and modified) in modern India, in fields such as religion and philosophy, social hierarchy, popular entertainment, language and linguistics and traditions of scholarship

Supposed Graeco-Roman Goddesses and Related Matter in the Angavijjā
In his introduction to Muni Punyavijaya's edition/ of the important Prakrit manual of divination, the Angavijjd, Dr. Moti Chandra made some preliminary attempt at commenting on its varied contents. On page 42 he commented on the passage 9, 270 ff, calling it a 'List of Goddesses,' which should perhaps be slightly modified. In 9, 270 a general definition, amdnuse sadde, 'non-human female beings' is given. The text goes on listing such female being…

The Ethnography of the Fringes
The methods and the types of source criticism used by Herodotus in ethnographical matters were the same as in history- after all, ethnography was for him only a sub-genre of history. He made his own observations, collected local information, checked existing literary sources and analysed all these in the light of his own rational thinking. However, in the case of the fringes he rarely had a choice of source. There are two approaches to the study …

India and the Hellenistic World
Orality vs. written text
In this article my intention is to discuss in a general way the somewhat obscure period of Indian literary and religious history falling between the last phase of the creation of commonly recognised Vedic literature (the Smrti part of it) and the beginnings of the modern scholarship dealing with it. In short -the mediaeval period. However, there is an inherent danger in using schematic terms of periodisation, especially when originally brought fr…
Ctesias in transmission and tradition
Linguarum profession in the Academia Gustaviana in Tartu (Dorpat) and the Academia Gustavo-Carolina in Pärnu (Pernau)
Of the five universities of Sweden in the 17th and 18th centuries, the history of Oriental studies has been often dealt with in the cases of Uppsala, Turku and Lund. While the University of Greifswald, though politically under Swedish rule (1648–1815), belongs more to the history of learning in Germany, it is my task here to give a short survey of the Oriental chair in Dorpat (now Tartu) and of studies connected with it. The University of Tartu (…
