Kehittääkö hyvä ihminen paremman maailman vai onko ensin rakennettava parempi maailma, joka synnyttäisi hyvän ihmisen? Tästä teemasta löytyy pohdintoja. Kirja kertoo ihmislajin kehityksestä, perimästä ja solidaarisuudesta. Ihmisen perus- ja muista tarpeista esitellään sosiaalipoliittisia näkökulmia. Kansakunnan perusvastakohtaisuudet muuttuvat aikojen kuluessa. Suomalaisen yhteiskunnan jakautuminen ja yhdistyminen on vuosikymmeniä kestänyt ajanjakso. Hyvinvointivaltion syntyyn liittyi yhteiskunnallinen kritiikki. Pekka Kuusen askelmerkit loivat tavoitteen sosiaalipolitiikan kehittämiselle.

Finland celebrated its 85th year of independence in 2002. It is one of the thirteen countries of the world that have preserved their democracy uninterrupted since the First World War. Despite its modest origins and difficult wartime experiences, this dynamic country is now a world leader in many spheres. In 2001 it was named the world's most technologically advanced and also the least corrupt country. Other studies have shown it to have one of the three most competitive economies, the best environmental sustainability, and the second most equal society. Such rapid development has increased the need for information about Finland and what can be learned from its unique experience. This book offers an introduction to the country today, focusing on the most recent research into its politics, policies, and society, viewed in a comparative context. Dynamic Finland has been written for a general audience by two eminent scholars.
By analysing the experience of Finland, Risto Alapuro shows how upheavals in powerful countries shape the internal politics of smaller countries. This linkage, a highly topical subject in the twenty-first century world, is concretely studied by putting the abortive Finnish revolution of 1917-18 into a long historical and a broad comparative perspective.
