  • Economic system justification predicts stigmatization of mental illness in the United States
    Valtonen, Jussi; Azevedo, Flávio; Jost, John T. (American Psychological Association, 2026)
    Lehtiartikkeli
    Mental illness stigma remains persistent despite prominent public campaigns to combat it. We propose that system justification theory, which posits that people are motivated to see current institutions and arrangements as fair and legitimate, can help explain the near-universal stigmatization of mental illness. To investigate system justification and mental illness stigma, we conducted three studies comprising survey and experimental methods (total N = 1,514). In two surveys, including a nationally representative survey of U.S. adults, the tendency to view the current economic system as fair and legitimate was the strongest and most consistent unique predictor of stigmatizing responses across a wide range of measures. In an experiment, we manipulated the economic positioning of vignette characters meeting the diagnostic criteria for depression and social phobia. Participants’ responses were more stigmatizing when the character’s position in the economic system was low (vs. high), operationalized in terms of income. The findings support previous suggestions that system-justifying beliefs are relevant for mental illness stigma and indicate that reactions to mental illness are usefully seen in light of attitudes toward the social and economic system.
  • Developing bi-musicality through immersion in J-pop : Composition and performing processes
    Toivonen, Aarne (Taideyliopiston Sibelius-Akatemia, 2025)
    Opinnäyte
    This Global Music master’s thesis explores bi-musicality, an ability to better understand and perform another musical style, through immersion in J-pop. Through this thesis I investigated the musical elements and culture behind J-pop hoping to raise awareness and appreciation of the genre, and to give musicians tools to develop bi-musicality with J-pop as an example. I studied the musical elements and the culture of J-pop using artistic research methods such as musical immersion, song analysis, academic texts as well as field trips. I compared J-pop songs to Western pop songs to see the differences between the two genres, and found out that J-pop can have complex musical elements from a Western musician’s point of view, such as jazz harmony and progressive arrangements. During my field trips to Japan I learned more about some of the cultural and societal aspects of Japanese culture and how they might affect the sound of the genre, such as the working culture, education system and history. It seems that J-pop is a combination of Japanese traditionalism mixed with the country’s vast influences from Western musical traditions that have become integrated in the unique culture of Japan. With the knowledge and experiences that I got from these processes I did experimentation with my own songwriting processes being influenced by J-pop. As a musician with a background in different kinds of musical genres and traditions, I feel that it is essential to understand or at least to appreciate and be aware of different musical cultures. In this thesis I argue that through bi-musicality we can not only break the language barrier in music, but to engage in musical practices with more people and create new kinds of exciting music in an ethical way.

  • Vaelluksella vanhan musiikin maailmassa
    Mattila, Anssi; Järviö, Päivi (toim.)
    Sibelius-Akatemian julkaisuja : 34 (Taideyliopiston Sibelius-Akatemia, 2026)
    Kirja
    Kapellimestari, pedagogi ja vanhan musiikin vaikuttaja Anssi Mattilan kokemus musiikin – erityisesti barokkimusiikin – tekemisestä on kypsynyt pitkän ja vaikuttavan uran kuluessa 1980-luvulta nykypäi-vään. Hän on johtanut kaikkia Suomen kaupunginorkestereita ja vienyt tyylitietoisen barokkimusiikin sanomaa kaikkialle kotimaahan ja lukuisiin muihin maihin, joissa on konsertoinut. Mattila on jatkuvasti kehittänyt ajatteluaan ja oppineisuuttaan myös tuottamalla kirjoituksia vanhasta musiikista ja sen ym-päriltä niin ohjelmakirjoihin, erilaisiin aikakausjulkaisuihin kuin puheohjelmiksi radioon. Kokoelmaan valituissa teksteissä Mattila käsittelee laaja-alaisesti kaikkea mahdollista alaansa liit-tyvää vanhan musiikin esittämisestä sekä musiikin maailmasta muinoin ja nyt. Hän antautuu analyytti-siin pohdintoihin soittimista, säveltäjistä ja teoksista. Rehevä ilmaisutyyli vaihtelee pakinasta matka-kertomuksen ja tutkimuksen kautta yleiseen taivasteluun. Kirjaa voi nimittää vaikkapa esseekokoel-maksi, jonka ydin on musiikin merkityksissä ja sen roolissa yhtenä elementtinä satojen vuosien mittai-sessa eurooppalaisen taide-elämän kehityksessä. Mestarillista alan tuntemusta ja taiteilijan uteliaisuutta pursuava teos on kirjoittajansa rakkauden-osoitus musiikin historialle. Se on kirjoitettu kiinnostuneelle konserttiyleisölle, musiikin kuuntelijoille ja oikeastaan kenelle tahansa kulttuurista kiinnostuneelle ihmiselle.
  • West Side Story Abroad as an American Icon
    Ansari, Emily Abrams; Searcy, Anne; Laird, Paul R.; Monte, Gonzalo Fernández; Wells, Elizabeth A.; Kukkonen, Aino (Cambridge University Press, 2025)
    Kirjan osa
    West Side Story has long been important in the international market. This chapter provides four vignettes of its presence outside of the United States. Attempts to make the show one of the pieces of American culture that the US State Department allowed to tour in the USSR in the 1950s were unsuccessful, but the 1961 film helped make West Side Story known there and its sense of integration between various elements aligned closely with Soviet artistic conceptions. The film became very popular in Spain, where staged versions did not appear until tours in the 1980s. The first two professional Spanish productions premiered in Barcelona in 1996 and Madrid in 2018. Jerome Robbins took an American cast to England in 1958, creating a sensation first in Manchester and then in London. A Finnish production in Tampere Theater in 1963 proved popular and played briefly in Vienna in 1965.
  • On the interconnectedness of music and peacebuilding : A scoping review informing music education
    Kilpi, Jenni (Sage, 2025)
    Lehtiartikkeli
    This interdisciplinary study explores the interconnectedness between music and peacebuilding. The concept of interconnectedness shapes this study, in response to rapidly evolving global circumstances that require fresh interpretations of both peacebuilding and music. Through a scoping review, the aim of this study is to explore the characteristics of the available research literature bringing together music and peacebuilding. The explorative starting point is to examine both music and peacebuilding as social systems, focusing on their purposes and the respective contexts in which they operate. This study seeks to bridge the knowledge gap that remains, despite existing research, in identifying how this interconnectedness could be brought to life, and how it could inform the reflection of purposes and meanings in music education. A scoping review was conducted with 34 studies from 2013 to 2023. The inductive content analysis displayed geographic diversity with a specific focus on areas of past or present conflict. The characteristics of the studies were diverse, yet a tendency toward employing qualitative, ethnographic data was noticeable. As a result, five categories of interconnectedness between music and peacebuilding were identified: (a) music supporting understanding between differing groups, (b) music forming narratives to build peace, (c) music building peace within specific community settings, (d) music integrated into educational frameworks for peacebuilding, and (e) theoretical viewpoints on the interconnectedness between music and peacebuilding. These could be interpreted as glimpses of an emerging system, situated at the intersection of peacebuilding, music, and music education.
