Mosaics of nature, meaning, and politics: Conservation of coastal heathlands in Western Norway
In this paper, we seek to understand the practices that shape nature into governable objects by exploring the different framings of coastal heathlands and the political technologies that inform their governance. Through investigating national policy objectives alongside related management practices - and drawing on a case study from western Norway - we explore how conflicting values and aims may emerge in the governance and stewardship of these l…
Participatory topological mapping: A novel approach for exploring and communicating situated knowledge of complex socio-ecological systems
Land use change impacts on Sámi reindeer husbandry are well-documented, but existing maps often fail to capture socio-ecological relationships between herders, reindeer and nature. Conventional Geographic Information Systems (GIS) simplify these relationships, lacking local context and excluding valuable knowledge due to their rigid structure. This paper introduces participatory topological mapping, a low-tech, knowledge co-production method that…
The art of governing and everyday resistance: “Rationalization” of Sámi reindeer husbandry in Norway since the 1970s
Since the late 1970s, a policy objective in Norway has been to rationalize Sámi reindeer husbandry. Among the government officials, there is, however, a concern that this objective has not been successfully met in West Finnmark due to “too many reindeer” and “too many pastoralists” degrading the pastures and jeopardizing the economy of pastoralism. Engaging with the concepts of “the art of governing” and “everyday resistance”, we examined the sta…

Land-use conflicts between reindeer husbandry and mineral extraction in Finnmark, Norway: Contested rationalities and the politics of belonging
The article compares decision-making on two mining projects in Sámi reindeer pastures: the Nussir and Biedjovággi initiatives in northern Norway. Key actors are reindeer pastoralists, mining companies, local politicians and the state. Based on interviews, government documents, media debates and observations of meetings between the actors, the study examines the actors’ claim to land and rationalities used in political decision-making. The case co…
