Finlandia : 'our land' and a postscript.This book offers an incisive and analytical account of virtually all aspects of Finnish life - ranging from culture, parliamentarianism, arts, architecture, design, literature, education and health policies, information technology, to the development of multipolis technology clusters and networks. Demonstrating how civic attitudes have evolved over time mediated by the pressures of technology and modernity, Technology, Culture, and Public Policy ultimately transcends an examination of Finland's own successes and challenges, considering what lessons other countries might apply to their own intricate national contexts.FinlandHistory1981-FinlandEconomic policyFinlandSocial policyFinlandPolitics and government1981-320.6094897Kalu Kalu Ndukwe969976MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910154863803321Technology, culture, and public policy2289430UNINA
