The Sámi World

This book provides a comprehensive and multifaceted analysis of the Sámi society and its histories and people, offering valuable insights into how they live and see the world. The chapters examine a variety of social and cultural practices, and consideration is given to environment, legal and political conditions and power relations. The contributions by a range of experts of Sámi studies and Indigenous scholars are drawn from across the Sápmi region, which spans from central Norway and central Sweden across Finnish Lapland to the Kola Peninsula in Russia. Sámi perspectives, concepts and ways of knowing are foregrounded throughout the volume. The material connects with wider discussions within Indigenous studies and engages with current concerns relating to globalization, environmental and cultural change, Arctic politics, multiculturalism, postcolonialism and neoliberalism. The Sámi World will be of interest to scholars from a number of disciplines, including Indigenous studies, anthropology, sociology, geography, history and political science.

For several decades now, there have been calls to decolonize research on the Indigenous Sámi people, and to make it accountable to the Sámi society. While this has contributed to the rise of a vibrant Sámi research community in the Nordic countries, less attention has been paid to what extent, and how the "Sámi turn" in research has been implemented in practice. Written by prominent Nordic and Sámi scholars anchored in the Sámi research communities in Finland, Norway and Sweden, this volume explores not only the meanings and implications of this turn across disciplines, but also some of the challenges that efforts to create space for Sámi voices, knowledges and perspectives still meet...

Risti ja noitarumpu

Enontekiön markkinat ovat juuri alkamassa. Vilinää ja vilskettä on tavallista enemmän; lapsia juoksentelee ympäriinsä, miehet ovat kauppatavaroineen päämäärätietoisia. Paikalle saapuu myös Enontekiön kappalainen, Olaus Sirma. Sirma on itsekin syntyperäinen saamelainen. Hänellä on kuitenkin edessään vaikea tehtävä. Kuinka istuttaa kristinusko Lappiin, jossa on vahva kansanusko? Mikä avuksi, kun kansa käy kirkossa mutta käyttää kuitenkin vapaa-ajallaan noitarumpuja? Sirma tekee myös suuren työn kääntäessään katekismuksen saamen kielelle. Risti ja noitarumpu on historiallinen romaani Olaus Sirman (1655–1719) elämästä. Arvi Järventaus (1883–1939) oli suomalainen kirjailija ja pappi. Järventauksen romaaneista tunnetaan parhaiten hänen esikoisteoksensa "Risti ja noitarumpu".

Queer Indigenous Studies

ÒThis book is an imagining.Ó So begins this collection examining critical, Indigenous-centered approaches to understanding gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, queer, and Two-Spirit (GLBTQ2) lives and communities and the creative implications of queer theory in Native studies. This book is not so much a manifesto as it is a dialogueÑa Òwriting in conversationÓÑamong a luminous group of scholar-activists revisiting the history of gay and lesbian studies in Indigenous communities while forging a path for Indigenouscentered theories and methodologies. The bold opening to Queer Indigenous Studies invites new dialogues in Native American and Indigenous studies about the directions and impli...
