Peripheries, second-homes – everyday and academic perspectives
• Periphery and boundary both are products of nation state building – in many respects e.g. Joensuu is much more peripheral in national than in global context
• Why to bother to study peripheries?– Problem sites, which preserve conservative values but ruin the nature, do not
offer decent income but imitate the ways of life from the centers– Idyll sites, where small is beautiful and where the assessment of societal
change and development can be done from the distance and deeply• “It is clear that peripherality is, or should be, a contextual category
rather than a mere technical instrument to be employed in the classification of social – mainly economic – space. … peripherality should be a contextual but is also a relativistic category; there are no ‘absolute’ peripheries.” (Paasi 1995, 253-4)
• ”However, there still seems to be some agreement that the role of second-home phenomena for regional development is not fully understood. Thus, Second Homes: Curse or Blessing? [1977] remains a powerful reminder that scientific problems are not solved easily, particularly since they are objects of continuous change and diversification.” (Müller & Hoogendoorn 2013, 366) 5.5..2015Esityksen nimi / Tekijä 2

Extensive perspectives to peripheries

The dimensions of (the Northern) peripheriesRegional differentiation can be divided into core areas and peripheral areas. We can
see this division on different regional scales from global to local. The cores are
typically diverse centres of economic growth, political power, culture life etc.
Main characteristics of peripheral regions:
“Peripheral in both a spatial and a social sense means being out of the centre of
resources, such as wealth, power, or connection” (Oksa 1995,183).• geographically remote (distance to/from centers), territorially
remote (border areas) • dependent up on external political and industrial decision-making• resource-based economy (agriculture, forestry, mining, fishing)• strong dependence on the state as provider of employment, services,
subsidies etc.• relatively low levels of income, education, health, housing etc.• culturally traditional• decline of population, employment, services• out-migration of young people, aging of the population• unfavourable climate and geological conditions (archipelago,
mountainous etc.)

Peripherality as an expenditure factor: some Nordic features
5.5..2015Esityksen nimi / Tekijä 6
LOW POPULATION DENSITY AND LONG DISTANCESA The share of people living outside population centres (the
share of people in sparsely populated areas)B The density of the people living in sparsely populated areas
- conventional density: average number of inhabitants/km2- grid square model of density: average number of inhabitants/populated km2-grids
C Wideness- the size of the area- the length of general roads- the average distance of farms from the population centre
REMOTE LOCATIOND The distance from the population as a demand potential
- the lack of collaboration possibilities- the lack of purchasing power- the lack of political power
E The distance to the town centresF The site of location on the border
OTHER FACTORS OF UNFAVOURABILITY (RELATED TO REMOTENESS)- bilingualism- special support for salaries in remote municipalities

Ongoing research project based on Nordplus-courses 1999-20151 How the students structure the problems of
regional development in the context of peripheral regions?
2 How the argumentation is connected to societal/grand principles and tensions (of e.g. efficiency and equity)?
3 What are main results/findings/observations/remarks in the study papers
4 Problem-solving and recommendations - what explains the orientation and articulation? (Zeitgeist?, EU-guidelines?, best-seller theoretical approaches?, charisma of teaching/supervision?, content of the courses?, intensive course dynamics?, general group dynamics?, group work habits like SWOT-analysis?)
5 The processes of knowledge in expert training and regional development work?

Approaches to study reports
• Periphery (dualisms)– global-local, state-municipality,
centralization-decentralization, vertical-horizontal, city-countryside, capital-labor, economy-culture, effectiveness-equity
• Competitiveness and welfare (three-fold analyses)– competence – connections – concept (Moss-Kanter 1995)– specialization – productivity – know-how – hierarchy – partnership – network – having – loving – being (Allardt 1976)
• Would these classifications reach the ideas of intensive development work …?

Dimensions and examples
• Reforms about how to secure regional equity of urban type of services (border regions are usually peripheral in nature, thus removing borders by creating sub-regional municipalities (larger functional urban-rural regions will decrease peripherisation)
more people and/or services on wheels revaluation of real estate property in the centres of suspended
municipalities Sustainability in terms of economic, social, political, cultural and
ecological change• The renaissance of industries based on natural resources.
Mining boom in Finland (e.g. 4 mines in action in Lapland and 7 more will be started up in the near future)
• ”Pop in/pop out countryside/peripheries”• Broadband networked regionalisation and remote
telecommuting work

Three perspectives of estimating development/change
a) Statistical indicators– Certainties at the level of large numbers and avarages– GNP, HDI …
b) Single success stories and failures– Options for understanding the mechanisms of change and
innovation processes– Uniqueness versus general lessons
c) Views from the bottom– Less developed areas / poor people as critical determinants
of ”real” development– e.g. absolute change of income at the lowest deciles of
distribution

An incident at the course 2013 • In year 2013 the expectations towards field studies were made as challenging as possible, since the preparation seminar ended up an open disagreement and miscommunication among teachers about strictly guided or more freely chosen methodological approach in front of the students.
• In the evening, just before students’ departure for field study locations, each teacher tried to calm down the situation within groups and by collectively shared e-mail with apologies, explanations and promises of full online accessibility of teachers during the field days.
• Work in high stress and time squeeze is very common in many organizations, nowadays even within an academia. Very turbulent time needs ever higher degree of flexibility, ad hoc solutions and good will for a proper communication. If you cannot make it then it will not cost you a job. Somehow by accident this was an opportunity to put our students’ abilities to the test.
• Obviously, the crisis before the field study strengthened the ties between group members as well as the working spirit. Students were doing so well that also local people seemed to recognize the good humour of the teams. They were wished to welcome and doors for interviews and observations opened easily to local authorities, services and industries.
• Consequently, students achieved materials they could analyze in the frameworks of knowledge/identity resources and codified/tacit knowledge. In many papers there were serious efforts to find means and matters to understand whether there is a phenomenon called local knowledge.
