The ‘Year’ That Changed How We View the North This book is about a new theoretical approach that transformed the field of Arctic social studies and about a program called International Polar Year 2007–2008 (IPY) that altered the position of social research within the broader polar science. The concept for IPY was developed in 2003–2005; its vision was for researchers from many nations to work together to gain cro- disciplinary insight into planetary processes, to explore and increase our understanding of the polar regions, the Arctic and Antarctica, and of their roles in the global system.

”Mi mamma kan ikkje rape. I et heilt år har vi venta på at ho ska lære sæ det.” Slik begynner denne boka, som inneholder ei samling av replikker på ekte nordnorsk dialekt. Ja, her serveres humor og alvor i skjønn forening. For slik blir det gjerne, når ungene selv får øse av sitt eget, grenseløse univers. Denne boka er skrevet i dyp respekt for den oppvoksende slekt. Og kanskje har vi voksne også noe å lære av slike hverdagslige betraktninger, framstilt på en sånn ekte og ærlig måte?

Ronny Trælvik kommer fra Senja i Troms og har tidligere skrevet en rekke bøker, blant annet lokalhistorie, humor, lyrikk, krim og biografi.
