Research interests

In my doctoral dissertation (Intertwining science and politics: Foreign scholars of Finland and their Finnish collaborators, ca. 1870-1920), I examine five foreign researchers, who studied Finns and their culture in the late nineteenth century, and their cooperation with Finnish scientific community. I am interested in the transnational environment where these men interacted in and what part national sympathies had in their actions. Also, by examining their research on Finns, I try to find relevant aspects that give light to the wider scientific contexts of late-nineteenth-century Europe.

Projects as Principal investigator


Nb. In Converis, projects mean external funding related to JYU operations. More extensive studies (e.g. dissertations or Research Council of Finland CoEs) may include multiple funding components, each shown as a different project in Converis. Budget-funded studies (funding only from JYU) are not listed as projects. Regarding personal grants the data is not comprehensive. Start and end dates do not necessarily reflect exact months when the grant has been used. Project data has been recorded systematically since 2017.
