For several decades now, there have been calls to decolonize
research on the Indigenous Sami people, and to make it accountable
to the Sami society. While this has contributed to the rise of a
vibrant Sami research community in the Nordic countries, less
attention has been paid to what extent, and how the "Sami turn" in
research has been implemented in practice. Written by prominent
Nordic and Sami scholars anchored in the Sami 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 Sami
voices, knowledges and perspectives still meet today. The book
provides a timely, interdisciplinary engagement with the central
themes that have framed the development of Sami research, and a
critical appraisal of the impact that efforts to decolonize
research in the Sami context have had upon Nordic societies and
state policies so far. Sami Research in Transition is valuable for
scholars and students interested in Sami history and society,
Arctic and Circumpolar Indigenous studies and critical studies on
the relationship between knowledge and social change.
