This volume is devoted to aspects of space that have thus far been
largely unexplored. How space is perceived and cognised has been
discussed from different stances, but there are few analyses of
nomadic approaches to spatiality. Nor is there a sufficient number
of studies on indigenous interpretations of space, despite the
importance of territory and place in definitions of indigeneity. At
the intersection of geography and anthropology, the authors of this
volume combine general reflections on spatiality with case studies
from the Circumpolar North and other nomadic settings. Spatial
perceptions and practices have been profoundly transformed by new
technologies as well as by new modes of social and political
interaction. How do these changes play out in the everyday lives,
identifications and political projects of nomadic and indigenous
people? This question has been broached from two seemingly
divergent stances: spatial cognition, on the one hand, and
production of space, on the other. Bringing these two approaches
together, this volume re-aligns the different strings of
scholarship on spatiality, making them applicable and relevant for
indigenous and nomadic conceptualizations of space, place and
territory.
