The Reception and Criticism of Geo Widengren in the Nordic Countries
Although Geo Widengren was seldom afraid to voice his opinion on any matter that had to do with the study of religions, it is surprising that he seldom if ever addressed the explicit criticisms he received from Nordic colleagues, such as the Norwegian Biblical scholar and philologist Sigmund Mowinkel (1884â1965) and the Finnish ethnologist and scholar of religions Rafael Karsten (1879â1956). Since we argue that a study of how Widengrenâs research was received by his contemporary colleagues in the Nordic countries casts light on some of the theoretical and methodological assumptions that explicitly or implicitly underpin his research, we will discuss Karstenâs extensive criticism of the two books of Widengren, namely Religionens vĂ€rld (âThe World of Religionsâ) and Religionens ursprung (âThe Origin of Religionâ).Peer reviewe
KenttÀtutkimuksen antia buddhalaisesta luostarista, osa 1
Dokumentoin kolmessa perĂ€kkĂ€isessĂ€ katsauksessa kenttĂ€tutkimustani Kandyn Malwatta VihÄran luostarista Sri Lankassa. Keskityn kolmeen teemaan: jĂ€lleentapaamisen kokemuksiin, buddhalaisen filosofian ja singalilaisen kulttuurin vĂ€liseen suhteeseen sekĂ€ munkkiudesta luopumisen syihin. Tulin jĂ€lleen kerran vakuuttuneeksi kenttĂ€tutkimuksen ylivertaisuudesta myös uskontotieteessĂ€. Vasta kentĂ€llĂ€, havainnoidessaan ja keskustellessaan buddhalaisten munkkien kanssa, buddhalaisuuden tutkija saa laajemman ja perusteellisemman ymmĂ€rryksen buddhalaisuudesta filosofiana ja uskontona.Non peer reviewe

Internetmarknadsföring inom turismen : Case Esbo Turism Ab
I detta arbetet behandlas kundförnöjsamheten med Esbo Turism Abs hemsidor, och ifall dessa kan förbÀttras ytterligare. Teorin baserar sig mycket pÄ marknadsföring samt kundens beteende och behov, internetsidor samt kvalitet och segmentering. Undersökningen har genomförts med hjÀlp av webbenkÀter och litet djupare e-post intervjuer under vÄren 2010.
I undersökningen deltog 30 personer i enkÀterna och tre stycken i intervjuerna. Störst svarskvot bildades av 15-25 Äringar frÄn Helsingfors. Resultaten skiljde sig inte mycket frÄn förvÀntningarna. Resultaten var att kunderna Àr nöjda med de nya hemsidorna, ÄtervÀnder gÀrna till dessa, och de flesta av respondenterna hade inte hittat sidan tidigare. Mest sökte kunderna information om Esbo stad, samt om mat och nöjen (restauranger och nattliv) i Esbo. Hemsidan upplevs som lÀtt att anvÀnda och majoriteten hittade vad de sökte. Kunderna skulle vilja ha mer information om staden, om mat och nöjen samt om aktiviteterna och kultur och sevÀrdheterna.
FörbÀttringsförslag som kom upp var frÀmst angÄende layouten och de tekniska detaljerna kring hemsidan, och berörde inte innehÄllet pÄ sidorna i större grad. Det som kunderna var mindre nöjda med var navigeringen, speciellt mellan de olika sprÄken, sprÄkvalen samt att marknadsföringen av hemsidan kunde varit bÀttre och aktivare.
Syftet med arbetet uppnÄddes, att redogöra för kundernas Äsikter om de nya hemsidorna samt som ett delsyfte fÄ fram förbÀttringsförslag.In this thesis customer satisfaction for Esbo Turism AbŽs web pages is treated, and also how the web pages can be improved further. The theory is mainly based on marketing strategies, customer relations and behavior, internet pages, and quality.

In the survey participated 30 persons by web surveys, and three persons in the interviews. The majority showed off to be from Helsinki, and in the age 15-25 and women. The results did not part much from the expectations. The results were that customers were mainly satisfied with the new web pages, and gladly return to them. Most of the participants were first timers on the pages, and searched information about Espoo city, and also about food and beverages in Espoo. Due to the participants in the survey, the web pages are easy to use, and the majority found what they were searching for on the pages. The customers would like to get more information about the city overall, and about the food and beverages (restaurants) inside the city. They would also like more information about the activities and the cultural heritage.
Improvements that could be made on basis of this survey is mainly on the technical side of the pages, and didnât concern the information on the pages. The customers suggested improvements on the navigation of the pages, especially between the languages, and also the language selection and the marketing of the pages could have been more active.
