Changing Lapps A Study in Culture Relations in Northernmost Norway
is a study of culture contact between the Saami and the
Scandinavians, chiefly Norwegians, in an historical perspective.
This study is based primarily on literary sources and official
records supplemented by field work. In order to correct the
stereotype of the Saami as being a homogeneous people and entirely
nomadic reindeer breeders, Gjessing describes Saami social
structure and the functional aspects of the contact in terms of
three Saami sub-cultures, those of the sea Saami, Reindeer Saami,
and the permanently settled inland Saami. Gjessing points out that
there is an increasing feeling of solidarity following economic
lines rather than the local and cultural lines among the Saami
