Bedeutung
To look at something with scrutiny.
Kultureller Hintergrund
Critical thinking is a core part of the Finnish national curriculum from primary school onwards. Public broadcaster Yle often uses this phrase to encourage citizens to verify information. In Finnish universities, 'kriittisyys' is considered the highest form of intellectual maturity. Finns value 'suoruus' (directness), so critical examination is seen as efficient, not rude.
