When the land becomes the sea and the sea becomes the land
Miärralándda ( Miärra : ocean or sea; lándda : land) is an Ume Sámi term that embodies the porosity between land and sea—worlds that merge into one inseparable reality. In this paper, we approach Miärralándda as a ‘figuration’ with the potential to disrupt the ongoing processes of land and sea extraction in the traditional territory of the Ume Sámi people, which are often masked as sustainable development. This land is simultaneously Sápmi and He…
Listening to/in the Field
This article reflects on the Exploring Arctic Soundscapes project, a transdisciplinary venture of seven natural scientists, social scientists, and artists that sought to explore how a focus on sound could spur development of a new research sensibility for generating insights beyond the comfort zone of any one discipline. Viewing sound less as an object of study (“what sounds define a place?”) or methodology (“how do we listen to a place?”) than a…
Samiske spor i arkivet
I denne artikkelen spør vi hva det innebærer å avkolonialisere arkiver. Vårt utgangspunkt er arkivet etter den samiske naturlegen Knut Lunde. Arkivet består av dokumenter fra en historisk periode der kolonialisering var ekspanderende og omfattende på alle samfunnsområder. I vårt arbeid med samlingen ser vi etter hvordan kolonialitet har vært rammene for hvordan pasientjournaler, brev, respondert på henvendelser og avisartikler er skrevet, og hva …
Indigenous Sámi
“Decolonization” has, since Linda Tuhiwai Smith published her critique of Western academic research, been a concept guiding scholars to address the unequal relationship between Indigenous and scientific knowledge. Decolonization is a move toward sovereignty regarding land, recognition of Indigenous ways of knowing, as well as rethinking education. Decolonial thinking is about attending to ontological troubles and about unlearning and undoing colo…
Improving the relationships between Indigenous rights holders and researchers in the Arctic
Truly transdisciplinary approaches are needed to tackle the complex problems that the Arctic is facing at the moment. Collaboration between Indigenous rights holders and researchers through co-creative research approaches can result in high-quality research outcomes, but crucially also address colonial legacies and power imbalances, enhance mutual trust, and respect the rights of Indigenous Peoples. However, to be successful, collaborative resear…
Decolonized Research-Storying
In this chapter we want to bring Indigenous ontologies and ways of knowing into the practices of decolonized research-storying. One implication about that is bringing Eana, Earth in North Sámi, as a narrator into the text. This text is a collaborative endeavour, where we write about and with our encountering and living with/in Indigenous societies and ontologies. Care becomes present both in creating space for Indigenous ontologies in research-st…
The multiple landscapes of Biedjovággi
In this article, we engage with environmental conflicts on indigenous land through a focus on an attempt to gain social licence to reopen and operate the Biedjovággi mine in Guovdageainnu/Kautokeino in Sápmi, Norway. We argue that mining prospects bring forth ontological conflicts concerning land use, as well as ways to know the landscape and the envisioned future that the land holds. It is a story of a conflict between two different ways of know…

Stories of reconciliation enacted in the everyday lives of Sámi tourism entrepreneurs
Reconciliation has gained political interest in Norway, where a commission was established in 2018 to investigate the injustices committed in the past towards the Sámi and Kven. In this article, we argue that reconciliation can also be found in the small stories and events enacted in everyday life. Our analyses are based on a collaboration with a Sámi reindeer herding family who, through objects, food and tales, invite visitors to get “A taste of…
Landskap som hjem
I denne artikkelen gjør jeg en nylesing av Marianne Gullestads bok Hverdagsfilosofer. Verdier, selvforståelse og samfunnssyn i det moderne Norge, med særlig vekt på hennes fortolkning av sjøsamiske Einars selvbiografi – og måter Einar reflekterer rundt minner og felles hukommelse gjennom landskap. For å kunne utdype argumentasjon om minner som del av et landskap, vil jeg sette Gullestads analyse i dialog med det kunstneriske forskningsprosjektet …
Turbulent indigenous objects
This article addresses an ongoing controversy in Noway around designing and naming Sámi (indigenous) objects. The authors argue that controversies in many academic debates have been framed in essentializing ways that stress identity politics and believe this framing to be analytically and politically unfruitful. There are ways of thinking about or narrating tensions that are not essentialist and that do not close down productive ways of recognizi…
What Alters When the Traditional Sámi Costume Travels? A Study of Affective Investments in the Sápmi
The multiplicity of affective reactions released by just one object is at the core of Chapter 8. The authors describe how a retail chain staged a kick-off in northern Norway in what is also the territory of the indigenous Sámi population. To make it ‘authentic’, mock Sámi costumes made in China were given to the employees. This event caused an intense debate in the local and national media where opinions about the rights of indigenous people, col…
Negotiating Terrains
In this article we develop some arguments from a research project where the researchers were also participants in the making of a multiplayer online game. The “Siida” project emerged as a challenge to the static and monolithic vision of Indigenous Saami culture and history. It seeks to create an arena for learning founded on new approaches to research-based historical pedagogy. This involvement became the grounds from where we could refl ect upon…
Le langage silencieux du don dans les communautés arctiques
Cet article examine le concept de la performativité du don dans une communauté côtière ethniquement diversifiée, composée majoritairement d'autochtones sames et de Norvégiens. Inspirée par Mauss puis par Ricœur, l'auteure avance l'idée que la pratique du don revêt une importance capitale dans ces territoires isolés et peut être vue comme facteur d'émergence d'un sentiment de communauté et d'identité. Le don devient un acte performatif de relation…
The silent language of ethnicity
The article argues that in everyday life, in ethnically mixed communities in the Arctic region, the concept of Saaminess is dynamic and situated. Social practices that sustain impure identity categories are in existence. People insist on ambiguity as a matter of resistance against Norwegian society as well as against the logic of nationalism, after a century of institutionalized assimilation. In the practice of everyday life, gift exchange become…
