syrjimisenä

Syrjimisenä is a Finnish term that translates to "as discrimination" or "in the manner of discrimination." It refers to the act of treating someone unfairly or prejudicially based on characteristics such as their ethnicity, gender, religion, age, disability, sexual orientation, or other personal attributes. This unequal treatment can manifest in various forms, including exclusion, denial of opportunities, harassment, or the imposition of disadvantages.

The concept of syrjimisenä is important in legal and social contexts, as many societies have laws and policies in place to prevent and address discriminatory practices. Understanding syrjimisenä involves recognizing that it is not simply about individual actions but can also be embedded in systems, institutions, and societal norms. It highlights the importance of equality, fairness, and the protection of human rights for all individuals. The term emphasizes the ongoing nature or the manner in which discrimination occurs, suggesting a process or a pattern of behavior rather than a single isolated incident.
