Sustainable education should include Indigenous knowledge
The Research and Advocacy Group for Hunter Gatherer Education
Contemporary hunter-gatherers are among the most marginalized peoples in the world today, and face severe threats to their cultures, their livelihoods, and in many places – their very existence. Although formal education – schooling – is often presented as a solution for marginalized groups, generally social hierarchies are reproduced through such systems, and the extreme marginalization of hunters and gatherers in modern societies is mirrored in…
Sannhetskommisjoner: Om institusjonalisert kunnskap, kritisk distanse og andreantropologiske utfordringer
Denne artikkelen ser på noen aspekter av en sannhetskommisjon som er oppnevnt i Norge. Den første delen skisserer bakgrunnen for oppnevnelsen og diskuterer de argumentene som ble fremlagt, supplert med sitater fra en avisdebatt. Den andre delen setter denne debatten inn i en bredere sammenheng av norsk-samiske relasjoner og gir noen eksempler på samisk kommunikasjon om rett til å være forskjellig. Ved bruk av begrepene fordeling (redistribution) …

Regional and indigenous identities in the high north: Enacting social boundaries
This paper addresses two processes of social and cultural mobilisation. The first example is a regional movement, as manifested in social and cultural expressions of a north Norwegian identity that was particularly marked in the 1970s and early 80s. The other is the Saami movement, coming out strongly at about the same time, and being part of a global process of indigenous mobilisation. It is argued that although they are similar in the way they …
The University of Botswana and the University of Tromsø Collaborative Program: Its Relevance to Minority Education and San Youth Capacity-Building
This article highlights a multidisciplinary collaborative program between the University of Botswana and the University of Tromsø, Norway, focusing on San research and capacity-building. After 12 years of operation, this program led, in April 2010, to the creation of a new Research Center for San Studies at the University of Botswana. This research center will build on and expand the efforts of the initial collaborative program, which include res…

Impact of international mechanisms on indigenous rights in Botswana
This article looks at the inter-relationships between the global indigenous movement on the one hand, and the national policies and the changing fortunes of local indigenous organisations on the other. It provides a case study of a court case contesting the removal of San inhabitants of the Central Kalahari Game Reserve (CKGR) in Botswana that went on from 2004 to 2006. The focus is on the transnational aspects of events leading up to, taking pla…
News Notes on the outcome of the ruling in the Central Kalahari Game Reserve case, Botswana
The ruling in the case on rights to the Central Kalahari Game Reserve can be looked at from three perspectives. a) The judgement on December 13 was considered a success from the point of view of the applicants. b) The follow up has sought to minimise the impact as much as possible, heralded by a rather restricting statement from the Attorney General. c) And there has been a new kind of engagement by Botswana’s government in the international aren…

Improving their lives’: State policies and San resistance in Botswana
A court case raised by a group of San (former) hunter-gatherers, protesting against relocation from the Central Kalahari Game Reserve, has attracted considerable international attention. The Government of Botswana argues that the relocation was done in order to ‘improve the lives’ of the residents, and that it was in their own best interest. The residents plead their right to stay in their traditional territories, a right increasingly acknowledge…

Dilemmas in Norwegian Development Assistance to Indigenous Peoples: A Case-Study from Botswana
This article chronicles Norwegian support to the Remote Area Development Programme in Botswana. It includes background on Norwegian international commitment to the development of indigenous peoples, and explores the way these principles have been handled in a concrete case of development assistance. The analysis demonstrates how an emphasis on poverty alleviation may lead to welfare policies and a clientisation process that come in opposition to …
