Soft Cover. Condition: Very Good. Text in English. 251 pp. Title page has inscription by Matti Hyvärinen. Minor shelfwear. The institutions of social science are international through and through. We read the very same books, don't we?The really big names travel well from country to country. Everything is OK, right? Oh, come on! Have you ever tried to practice social science on the periphery? (Well, which regions actually belong to the periphery is a negotiable fact but, after all. what is not?) Have you ever tried to practice social science in a language which has just five million active speakers? Try once, and you will soon know. how fantastically easy it is to translate social, political, and cultural phenomena into other languages: We have tried it and in this book we proudly present the main department of the Research Institute for Social Sciences (RISS), University of Tampere, Finland, Northern Europe, to an international audience. This book, written by the staff of the RISS, tries to cover the topics and problems under investigation at our Institute, in all of its plurality. We assume that you do not count yourself as being in the company of those who voluntarily read leaflets, therefore we approach you with this book. The contributors discuss various institutions from newspapers, elections, racism, the perfect community, judical decisions, science, and autobiography to the political language of power, and endeavor to present themselves as well. Nevertheless, the institution in charge is the Research Institute for Social Sciences. Seller Inventory # 6146
