<p class="MsoNormal"><i><span lang="EN-US">Nordic Homicide in Deep Time</span></i><span lang="EN-US"> draws a unique and detailed picture of developments in human interpersonal violence and presents new findings on rates, patterns, and long-term changes in
lethal violence in the Nordics. Conducted by an interdisciplinary team of criminologists and historians, the book analyses homicide and lethal violence in northern Europe in two eras – the 17th century and early 21st century.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Similar and continuous societal structures, cultural patterns, and legal cultures allow for long-term and comparative homicide research in the Nordic context. Reflecting human universals and stable motives, such as revenge,
jealousy, honour, and material conflicts, homicide as a form of human behaviour enables long-duration comparison. By describing the rates and patterns of homicide during these two eras, the authors unveil continuity and change in human violence.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Where and when did homicide typically take place? Who were the victims and the offenders, what where the circumstances of their conflicts? Was intimate partner homicide more prevalent in the early modern period than in
present times? How long a time elapsed from violence to death? Were homicides often committed in the context of other crime? The book offers answers to these questions among others, comparing regions and eras. We gain a unique and empirically grounded view
on how state consolidation and changing routines of everyday life transformed the patterns of criminal homicide in Nordic society. The path to pacification was anything but easy, punctuated by shorter crises of social turmoil, and high violence.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">The book is also a methodological experiment that seeks to assess the feasibility of long-duration standardized homicide analysis and to better understand the logic of homicide variation across space and over time. In
developing a new approach for extending homicide research into the deep past, the authors have created the Historical Homicide Monitor. The new instrument combines wide explanatory scope, measurement standardization, and articulated theory expression. By retroactively
expanding research data to the pre-statistical era, the method enables long-duration comparison of different periods and areas. Based on in-depth source critique, the approach captures patterns of criminal behaviour, beyond the control activity of the courts.
The authors foresee the application of their approach in even remoter periods.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><i><span lang="EN-US">Nordic Homicide in Deep Time</span></i><span lang="EN-US"> helps the reader to understand modern homicide by revealing the historical continuities and changes in lethal violence. The book is written for professionals,
university students and anyone interested in the history of human behaviour.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-language:FI">This edited volume explores patriotism and the growing role of militarism in today’s Russia. During the last 20-year period, there has been a consistent effort in Russia to consolidate
the nation and to foster a sense of unity and common purpose. To this end, Russian authorities have activated various channels, from educational programmes and youth organizations to media and popular culture. With the conflict in Ukraine, the manipulation
of public sentiments – feeling of pride and perception of threat – has become more systemic. The traditional view of Russia being Other for Europe has been replaced with a narrative of enmity. The West is portrayed as a threat to Russia’s historical-cultural
originality while Russia represents itself as a country encircled by enemies. On the other hand, these state-led projects mixing patriotism and militarism are perceived sceptically by the Russian society, especially the younger generations.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-language:FI">This volume provides new insights into the evolution of enemy images in Russia and the ways in which societal actors perceive official projections of patriotism and militarism in the Russian

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">This multidisciplinary volume reflects the shifting experiences and framings of Finnishness and its relation to race and coloniality. The authors centre their investigations on whiteness and unravel the cultural myth
of a normative Finnish (white) ethnicity. Rather than presenting a unified definition for whiteness, the book gives space to the different understandings and analyses of its authors. This collection of case-studies illuminates how Indigenous and ethnic minorities
have participated in defining notions of Finnishness, how historical and recent processes of migration have challenged the traditional conceptualisations of the nation-state and its population, and how imperial relationships have contributed to a complex set
of discourses on Finnish compliance and identity.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">With an aim to question and problematise what may seem self-evident aspects of Finnish life and Finnishness, expert voices join together to offer (counter) perspectives on how Finnishness is constructed and perceived.
Scholars from cultural studies, history, sociology, linguistics, genetics, among others, address four main topics: 1) Imaginations of Finnishness, including perceived physical characteristics of Finnish people; 2) Constructions of whiteness, entailing studies
of those who do and do not pass as white; 3) Representations of belonging and exclusion, making up of accounts of perceptions of what it means to be ‘Finnish’; and 4) Imperialism and colonisation, including what might be considered uncomfortable or even surprising
accounts of inclusion and exclusion in the Finnish context.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">This volume takes a first step in opening up a complex set of realities that define Finland’s changing role in the world and as a home to diverse populations.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<a name="author-7150">Joseph John Viscomi</a> (eds.) <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Until today, anthropological studies of locality have taken primary interest in local subjects leading local lives in local communities. Through a shift of conceptual emphasis from locality to location, the present volume
departs from previous preoccupations with identity and belonging. Instead, <i>Locating the Mediterranean</i> brings together ethnographic examinations of processes that make locations and render them meaningful. In doing so, it stimulates debates on the interplay
between location and region-making in history as well as anthropology.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">The volume’s deeply empirical contributions illustrate how historical, material, legal, religious, economic, political, and social connections and separations shape the experience of being located in the geographical
space commonly known as the Mediterranean region. Drawing from research in Melilla, Lampedusa, Istanbul, Nefpaktos/Lepanto, Tunisia, Beirut, Marseille, and elsewhere, the volume articulates location through the overlapping and incorporation of multiple social
and historical processes.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Individual contributions are linked by the pursuit to rethink the conceptual frames deployed to study the Mediterranean region. Together, the volume’s chapters challenge strict geopolitical renderings of Europe, the Middle
East, and North Africa and suggest how the ‘Mediterranean’ can function as a meaningful anthropological and historical category if the notion of ‘location’ is reinvigorated and conceptualised anew.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Jukka Gronow’s book <i>Deciphering Markets and Money</i> solves the problem of the specific social conditions of an economic order based on money and the equal exchange of commodities. Gronow scrutinizes the relation
of sociology to neoclassical economics and reflects on how sociology can contribute to the analyses of the major economic institutions. The question of the comparability and commensuration of economic objects runs through the chapters of the book.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">The author shows that due to the multidimensionality and principal quality uncertainty of products, markets would collapse without market devices that are either procedural, consisting of technical standards and measuring
instruments, or aesthetic, relying on the judgements of taste, or both. In his book, Gronow demonstrates that in this respect, financial markets share the same problem as the markets of wines, movies, or PCs and mobile phones, and hence offer a highly actual
case to study their social constitution in the process of coming into being.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<a name="author-6441">Kenneth R. Westphal</a><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Immanuel Kant’s ‘Transcendental Deduction of the Categories’ addresses issues centrally debated today in philosophy and in cognitive sciences, especially in epistemology, and in theory of perception. Kant’s insights into
these issues are clouded by pervasive misunderstandings of Kant’s ‘Deduction’ and its actual aims, scope, and argument. The present edition with its fresh and accurate translation and concise commentary aims to serve these contemporary debates as well as continuing
intensive and extensive scholarship on Kant’s <i>Critique of Pure Reason</i>. Two surprising results are that ‘Transcendental Deduction’ is valid and sound, and it holds independently of Kant’s transcendental idealism. This lucid volume is interesting and
useful to students, yet sufficiently detailed to be informative to specialists.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><i><span lang="EN-US">Digital Histories</span></i><span lang="EN-US"> showcases this emerging wave of digital history research. It presents work by historians who – on their own or through collaborations with e.g. information technology
specialists – have uncovered new, empirical historical knowledge through digital and computational methods. The topics of the volume range from the medieval period to the present day, including various parts of Europe. The chapters apply an exemplary array
of methods, such as digital metadata analysis, machine learning, network analysis, topic modelling, named entity recognition, collocation analysis, critical search, and text and data mining.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">The volume argues that digital history is entering a mature phase, digital history ‘in action’, where its focus is shifting from the building of resources towards the making of new historical knowledge. This also involves
novel challenges that digital methods pose to historical research, including awareness of the pitfalls and limitations of the digital tools and the necessity of new forms of digital source criticisms.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

to capture the attention of Finnish politicians, civil servants, and journalists nationwide. With concrete detailed examples,
<i>Kingdom of Nokia</i> illustrates how Nokia organised lavishing trips to journalists and paid direct campaign funding to politicians to establish its role at the core of Finnish decision-making. As a result, the company influenced important political decisions
such as joining the European Union and adopting the euro, and further, Nokia even drafted its own law to serve its special interests. All this in a country considered one of the least corrupt in the world.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-language:FI">During the early modern centuries, gunpowder and artillery revolutionized warfare, and armies grew rapidly. To sustain their new military machines, the European rulers turned increasingly
to their civilian subjects, making all levels of civil society serve the needs of the military.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-language:FI">This volume examines civil-military interaction in the multinational Swedish Realm in 1550–1800, with a focus on its eastern part, present-day Finland, which was an important supply region
and battlefield bordered by Russia. Sweden was one of the frontrunners of the Military Revolution in the 16th and 17th centuries. The crown was eager to adapt European models, but its attempts to outsource military supply to civilians in a realm lacking people,
capital, and resources were not always successful.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-language:FI">This book aims at explaining how the army utilized civilians – burghers, peasants, entrepreneurs – to provision itself, and how the civil population managed to benefit from the cooperation.
The chapters of the book illustrate the different ways in which Finnish civilians took part in supplying war efforts, e.g. how the army made deals with businessmen to finance its military campaigns and how town and country people were obliged to lodge and
feed soldiers.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-language:FI">The devilish has long been integral to myths, legends, and folklore, firmly located in the relationships between good and evil, and selves and others. But how are ideas of evil constructed
in current times and framed by contemporary social discourses? <i>Modern Folk Devils</i> builds on and works with Stanley Cohen’s theory on folk devils and moral panics to discuss the constructions of evil. The authors present an array of case-studies that
illustrate how the notion of folk devils nowadays comes into play and animates ideas of otherness and evil throughout the world. Examining current fears and perceived threats, this volume investigates and analyzes how and why these devils are constructed.
The chapters discuss how the devilish may take on many different forms: sometimes they exist only as a potential threat, other times they are a single individual or phenomenon or a visible group, such as refugees, technocrats, Roma, hipsters, LGBT groups,
and rightwing politicians. Folk devils themselves are also given a voice to offer an essential complementary perspective on how panics become exaggerated, facts distorted, and problems acutely angled.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><i><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-language:FI">Arendt, Eichmann and the Politics of the Past</span></i><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-language:FI"> offers a critical analysis of the original American debate over Hannah Arendt’s
report of the trial of Adolf Eichmann. First published in 2008, Tuija Parvikko’s book discusses both the campaign against Arendt organised by American Zionist organisations and the controversy Arendt’s report caused within American Jewish intellectual circles.
Parvikko’s analysis carefully draws from the historical background of the report, discussing Arendt’s early studies of Zionism and her critique of the Jewish state. The volume also gives an account of Eichmann’s capture in Argentina and the reception of the
report among legal scholars and the world press.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><i><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-language:FI">Situating Sustainability</span></i><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-language:FI"> reframes our understanding of sustainability through an emerging international terrain of concepts
and case studies. These approaches include material practices, such as extraction and disaster recovery, and extend into the domains of human rights and education.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-language:FI">This volume addresses the need in sustainability science to recognize the deep and diverse cultural histories that define environmental politics. It brings together scholars from cultural
studies, anthropology, literature, law, behavioral science, urban studies, design, and development to argue that it is no longer possible to talk about sustainability in general without thinking through the contexts of research and action. These contributors
are joined by artists whose public-facing work provides a mobile platform to conduct research at the edges of performance, knowledge production, and socio-ecological infrastructures.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><i><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-language:FI">Situating Sustainability</span></i><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-language:FI"> calls for a truly transdisciplinary research that is guided by the humanities and social sciences

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-language:FI">National parks and other preserved spaces of nature have become iconic symbols of nature protection around the world. However, the worldviews of Indigenous peoples have been marginalized
in discourses of nature preservation and conservation. As a result, for generations of Indigenous peoples, these protected spaces of nature have meant dispossession, treaty violations of hunting and fishing rights, and the loss of sacred places.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><i><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-language:FI">Bridging Cultural Concepts of Nature</span></i><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-language:FI"> brings together anthropologists and archaeologists, historians, linguists, policy experts,
and communications scholars to discuss differing views and presents a compelling case for the possibility of more productive discussions on the environment, sustainability, and nature protection. Drawing on case studies from Scandinavia to Latin America and
from North America to New Zealand, the volume challenges the old paradigm where Indigenous peoples are not included in the conservation and protection of natural areas and instead calls for the incorporation of Indigenous voices into this debate.
