Exploring the catalytic power of temporary urbanism through a binary approach
The temporary use of vacant spaces has become integrated into formal urban development practices. This paper seeks to explore the catalytic power of temporary urbanism for sustainable urban development by focusing on the tension between temporary and permanent and the dynamics through which temporary urbanism becomes catalytic. The case study focuses on a six-year experimental period of the Hiedanranta brownfield until the city started to build t…
How do time-bound practices initiate local sustainability pathways
This paper examines the micro-scale ignition of sustainability pathways in multi-actor collaboration in an urban living lab in Tampere, Finland, and aims to capture the reconfigurations that lead to urban sustainability. The conventional model of sustainability focusing on economic, environmental and social pillars does not correspond to the dynamic nature of urban sustainability. Thus, we utilise a sustainability framework that is more sensitive…
The role of national affluence, carbon emissions, and democracy in Europeans’ climate perceptions
There are differences across Europe in elements of climate citizenship, including climate concern, perceived responsibility, and willingness to support and take climate action. This paper examines how individual-level climate perceptions correspond to a country's contribution to climate change and its ability to develop climate policies. Data from the European Social Survey Round 8 (23 European countries, n = 44,387) was used to explore how natio…
Inhuman hands and missing child: Touching a literacy event in a Finnish primary school
This paper explores an inhuman reading of ‘hands’ with/in visual images of a Finnish literacy lesson. Inspired by Karen Barad’s agential realism and the ontological turn, we disrupt a metaphysics of presence, the temporality of progress and binary logic, to reconfigure the child in literacy practices as a sympoietic phenomenon, always already assembled in human and more-than-human company. We think with/in the concept of ‘touch’ as a method to re…
A Queer Cyborg Ethnographer in the Performative Friction of Dissenting Ontologies
The reader of this article is invited to join an encounter of methodological experimenting, productive tensions and a way of writing that seeks to challenge conventional human- and language-centered scholarly discourses. This article speculates with the possibility of two dissenting ontologies co-existing simultaneously and making each other visible. Troubling moments of the ontologies rubbing together are elaborated as friction and demonstrated …

Consumer consciousness on meat and the environment — Exploring differences
Consumers’ perceived barriers to following a plant-based diet
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to analyze the barriers perceived by consumers to lowering their meat consumption levels and adopting a plant-based diet, which means a diet that includes mainly non-meat foods, yet it can contain both vegetarian and meat meals. Design/methodology/approach – The prevalence of different barriers for following a plant-based diet is addressed, as well as consumer profiles considering socio-demographics, values …
Citizen Attitudes to Farm Animals in Finland: A Population-Based Study
Public Perceptions of Mental Capacities of Nonhuman Animals: Finnish Population Survey
Mental capacities are an essential basis on which people give moral concern to nonhuman animals. Hence, it is important to investigate public perceptions of animal mind and the factors underlying these perceptions. Although research into citizen beliefs in animal mind has been increasing, population-based studies utilizing multivariate methods have been scarce. In this article, public perceptions of animal mind are investigated with a nationwide …
Attitudes towards Farm Animals as a Part of Belief Systems
In this paper, we explore whether attitudes towards farm animals belong to a larger set of societal values which we label "belief systems." Our empirical analysis is based on a postal survey conducted in 2010: a random sample of 4,000 Finns aged from 18 to 75 years was selected from the Finnish Population Register database. Analysis techniques consisted of descriptive statistics, principal component analysis, and correlation analyses. Three diffe…

Advanced industrial countries: Europeanisation and ecological modernisation: agri-environmental policy and practices in Finland
This study addresses Europeanisation and ecological modernisation, using the case study of Finnish agriculture. It analyses the assumption that there has been a general transition towards the policies of ecological modernisation by examining changes in institutional arrangements, discourses and policy practices in the last three decades. The findings on Finnish agri‐environmental policy are somewhat contradictory. On one hand, especially in the p…

Unity in Environmental Discourse? The role of decision makers, experts and citizens in developing Finnish environmental policy
English This article deals with the construction of the content and goals of Finnish environmental policy. The basic issue is whether there are discourse and strategy coalitions of key players to be identified as well as interests with which the discourses and strategies coincide. In the study, 41 key players in the Finnish National Commission on Sustainable Development were interviewed. The main result is that environmental discourses show diver…
Agricultural policy community and the challenge of greening: The case of Finnish agri-environmental policy
What has been the main model of the agri‐environmental policy in Finland, and what kinds of interests has the policy promoted? Answers can be suggested by identifying political and cultural factors which have effects on the agricultural pollution issue, and by adopting a policy network approach using the concepts of policy community and issue network. On the one hand, the main model of the Finnish agri‐environmental policy has been stable. This i…
