    • Meeting Places and Integration: Participatory Mapping of Cross-Cultural Interactions in Norwegian 

      Taff, Gregory; Aure, Marit (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-12-02)
      Increased immigration into Scandinavia warrants the need for knowledge about differential uses of urban spaces by populations with various cultural backgrounds and the conditions that support cross-cultural interactions in these spaces. Immigrants and native Norwegians in Tromsø and Bodø were encouraged to log information about locations where they spend time on online participatory maps, along with ...
    • Mellom deltakelse og beskyttelse: Aksjonsforskningens mulighetsrom for barn og unge 

      Trondsen, Marianne Vibeke; Eriksen, Sissel H. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-02-01)
      Å gi barn og unge mulighet til deltakelse i forskning om temaer som angår deres liv og levekår er viktig. Samtidig innebærer forskning med mindreårige deltakere særskilte forskningsetiske og metodiske utfordringer. De har rett til beskyttelse, og deres integritet må ivaretas. Det kan oppstå et spenningsforhold mellom barns og unges deltakelse og deres rett til beskyttelse, særlig i forskning om ...
    • Methane emissions are lower from reindeer fed lichens compared to a concentrate feed 

      Hansen, Kia Krarup; Sundset, Monica Alterskjær; Folkow, Lars; Nilsen, Marte; Mathiesen, Svein Disch (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      Methane emissions from reindeer (Rangifer tarandus tarandus) fed lichens (mainly Cladonia stellaris) and a concentrate feed were determined using open-circuit respirometry. The lichen diet was low in crude protein (< 2.6% of dry matter [DM]), starch (6.0% DM) and acid detergent lignin (2.0% DM) compared to the concentrate feed (12.7, 22.5 and 7.2% DM, respectively), and high in neutral detergent ...

      Aure, Marit (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-04-24)
      This article examines the fathering practices of men in mobile work in the petroleum industry in Norway. In particular, it analyses the spatial mobility of these men and how their absence and presence impact their fathering. Drawing on insights from gendered migration and mobility studies, fathering and ‘new material’ approaches, this article nuances the understanding of current fathering practices ...
    • Modern wildlife conservation initiatives and the pastoralist/hunter nomads of northwestern Tibet. 

      Fox, Joseph L.; Yangzom, Drolma; Binrong, Xu; Mathiesen, Per; Næss, Marius W. (Journal article; Peer reviewed; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2004)
      In 1993 the Tibet Autonomous Region (TAR) of China established the 300 000 km2 Chang Tang Nature Preserve on the northwestern Tibetan plateau, an action precipitated by rapidly diminishing populations of chiru (Tibetan antelope) and wild yak. Some 30 000 nomadic pastoralists use areas within this reserve for livestock grazing, with many having traditionally depended in part on hunting for ...
    • Modernitet og modernitetskritikk i Emils Durkheims sosiologi 

      Guneriussen, Willy (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-09-07)
      Durkheims forhold til det moderne er preget av ambivalens. Han er kollektivist/holist når det gjelder sosiologiske forklaringer. Samfunnet er en egen realitet og en kraft som påvirker individenes tankeliv, følelser og motiver, om enn ikke i alle detaljer. Men selv om han er metodologisk kollektivist, er det ikke nødvendigvis slik at han også er kollektivist når det gjelder politiske og moralske ...
    • Mot avvikling av trålernes plikter? En gjennomgang av utkjøpsavtaler i nordnorske fiskerikommuner 

      Sørdahl, Patrick Berg; Henriksen, Edgar; Aarsæther, Nils (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2015)
      <p>The industry owned trawlers land-lock obligation, originally intended to ensure both greater seasonal distribution of raw material as well as settlement in coastal communities, function poorly and has been put under pressure. This is due to the industrial trawler concept being torn between its role as a raw material supplier with a social responsibility, and its role as profitable actor on a ...

    • Naturen som rekreasjon og heteroseksuell romantikk: En studie av russiske kvinnelige migranters poetiske fortellinger om natur og kjønn 

      Wara, Tatiana; Munkejord, Mai Camilla (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2016-02-10)
      Denne artikkelen undersøker forbindelser mellom natur og kjønn. Vi analyserer data fra feltarbeid og intervjuer med kvinnelige russiske migranter som har bosatt seg i en liten by i Finnmark sammen med en norsk mannlig partner. I artikkelen bygger vi på nyere antropologiske forståelser av natur, samt studier om hvordan natur/sted, kultur og kjønn gjensidig konstituerer hverandre. Basert på denne ...
    • Når kjønn «forsvinner» i regionale omstillingsprogram 

      Valestrand, Haldis (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-10-12)
      I denne artikkelen presenterer og diskuterer jeg manglende kjønnsperspektiver i det distriktspolitiske virkemidlet«regional omstilling», som er et program som kommuner kan søke på og iverksette. Ved hjelp av et konkret eksem-pel fra en deltakende kommune setter jeg søkelyset spesifikt på planleggingsprosessen av slike program og hvordanstrenge krav til organisering og innhold ser ut til å bidra ...
    • Nomadic pastoralism in the Aru basin of Tibet’s Chang Tang. 

      Lhagyal, Dondrup; Næss, Marius W.; Mathiesen, Per; Yangzom, Drolma; Fox, Joseph L.; Bårdsen, Bård J. (Journal article; Peer reviewed; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2004)
      Nomadic pastoralists live at the northern extent of human habitation within the ca. 5000 m elevation Aru basin, in the nortwestern part of the Chang Tang Nature Preserve, Tibet. These nomads herd primarily sheep and goats, a lesser number of yaks, and a few horses. Goats are increasing in importance because of the value of cashmere wool in national and international markets. Although sheep wool ...
    • The Nordic NATO pivot a stronghold for regional and global peace or a fragile region with turbulent seas and crowded skies? 

      Bleie, Tone (Chronicle; Kronikk, 2022-05-23)
      Imagine Nepal as a small state left an alliance-free foreign policy on short notice, seeking membership in a regional military alliance. Imagine your defense minister few weeks back said s/he was against membership and your prime minister expressed serious reservations. Imagine a historical decision is nevertheless taken in what is characterized as an unprecedented threatening context. Another ...

      Folkenborg, Håkon Rune (Research report; Forskningsrapport, 2009)
    • Nordområdenarrativer og identitetsbygging i nord 

      Steinveg, Beate; Medby, Ingrid Agnete (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-12-08)
      I denne fokusspalten tar vi for oss hvordan den norske nordområdepolitikken har blitt kommunisert gjennom bruk av politiske «narrativer». Ved bruk av narrativ politisk analyse belyser vi bruk av ideer om fortid, nåtid og fremtid i og som «nord». Innenriks har dette betydd en gjenfortelling av identitet og økt oppmerksomhet på elementer som hav- og kysthistorie, og utenriks har det betydd en reevaluering ...
    • Norge og EU : partnere i Arktis 

      Wegge, Njord (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2012)
      This article raises three main questions: (i) What characterizes the EEC/EU's relationship to the Arctic? (ii) What issues/areas have caused problems for the EU in becoming a more relevant actor in the Arctic? (iii) To what degree has Norway been able to exert influence on the Union's ongoing Arctic policy development? By chronologically reviewing the EEC/EU's relationship to the Arctic the article ...
    • Norsk-russisk miljø- og ressursforvaltning i nordområdene. 

      Hønneland, Geir (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2012)
      Since the end of the Cold War, a flourishing network of collaboration has grown up between Russia and neighbouring Nordic countries in the European North, especially Norway. The Barents Euro-Arctic Region (BEAR) was established in 1993 by several North European states and regional administrative entities in Norway, Sweden, Finland and Russia. Its aim is to promote relations across the old East-Westdivide ...

    • Numonu/moahau. Red feather coils from the Santa Cruz islands, Temotu Province, Solomon Islands 

      Crawford, Peter Ian (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      In the amazing building constructed in the early 19th century to house the Bank of Scotland, in the centre of Edinburgh, you will find the Museum of the Mound, a museum basically dedicated to anything to do with “money”. Its collection contains marvellous pieces of what we may call traditional forms of money from various cultures all over the world. What I would say is arguably the most spectacular ...
    • Nutrient fuxes from an Arctic seabird colony to the adjacent coastal marine ecosystem 

      Finne, Eirik Aasmo; Varpe, Øystein; Durant, Joël; Gabrielsen, Geir W.; Poste, Amanda (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-02-22)
      Seabirds are important vectors for nutrient transfer across ecosystem boundaries. In this seasonal study, we evaluate the impact of an Arctic colony (Alkhornet, Svalbard) of Black-legged Kittiwakes (Rissa tridactyla) and Brünnich’s Guillemots (Uria lomvia) on stream nutrient concentrations and fuxes, as well as utilization by coastal biota. Water samples from seabird-impacted and control streams ...
