Introduction
I am independent scholar, adjunct Prof. (History of Criminal Law), non-fiction author and human rights activist.
My doctoral theses (2008) focused on the culture and system of public shaming in the Duchy of Bavaria in the 16th and early 17th centuries. My central research interests include gender and violence in historical and present-day contexts of criminal law, human rights and attitudinal change.

The approach includes the idea of partial parallels between the historical roots of...
Nuoriin kohdistuva sukupuolistunut väkivalta – miten kielenkäyttö luo todellisuuksia?
Sanavalinnoilla on aina seurauksensa, niin tieteessä kuin arjessa. Kieli kantaa asenteita ohjaten sekä ajattelua että toimintaa. Sen avulla voidaan tarkoituksellisesti mutta usein tiedostamatta pitää yllä syvältä historiasta juontuvia valtarakenteita, mutta myös...
Taivas ja syli tarkastelee parisuhdeväkivaltaa yhden ihmisen elämäntarinan kautta ja pohtii sen kytköksiä uskonnolliseen yhteisöön. Samalla väkivaltaa, sen uhkaa ja sen piilottamista käsitellään laajemmin, osana sukupuolittuneiden valtasuhteiden sekä auttamisjärjestelmän historiaa ja nykyhetkeä. Katse kohdistetaan myös väkivallan ylisukupolvisiin...

On child rape and sexual abuse (legislation and court practise) in early modern Bavaria.
On child rape and sexual abuse (legislation and court practise) in early modern Bavaria.
This is a short version of my doctoral dissertation (Zum Spektakel und Abscheu. Schand- und Ehrenstrafen als Mittel öffentlicher Disziplinierung in München um 1600) in Finnish.
In the conference I presented my paper in the session "Identity and Publicity". I found this title very appropriate to my subject. After all, the big question in my work is the relations between the community and a criminal. My main concepts are honor and shame, and they were not only inner or personal, but very public values in the late medieval G...

The project answers these needs for the training of teachers, teacher students and other school professionals by (1) producing a model for developing a web-based training programme, increasing awareness and building the capability to prevent and encounter forms of gender-based violence at school; and (2) training teachers, teacher students and other professionals at school to recognize and encounter children and youth exposed to gender-based violence, abuse and harassment by providing support and guidance to further services, and reporting abuse and violence to authorities.
