  • Divided Arctic in a Divided World Order 

    Bertelsen, Rasmus Gjedssø (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2025)
    Arctic order historically, currently, and in the future, reflects world order. The idea of “Arctic exceptionalism” is not valid and is a poor guide for policy. During Cold War bipolarity, the Arctic was divided between the Soviet Arctic and the Nordic and North American Arctic. US victory and Soviet defeat in the Cold War led to US unipolarity and hegemony which was the basis for a circumpolar ...
  • Kommunen som ankerfeste i Distrikts-Norge 

    Aarsæther, Nils Johan (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024)
    Ottar Brox gjekk bort tidleg i 2024, etter eit langt liv som forskar, politikar og samfunnsdebattant.

Dette er ein kommentar til Ottar Brox sitt perspektiv på lokal utvikling.
  • Regional utvikling i nord: En komparativ analyse av politikk og demografi i Nord-Norge og Nord-Sverige 

    Stein, Jonas (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-01-19)
    This study examines the political and demographic trends in Northern Norway and Northern Sweden, regions often perceived as distinct due to their peripheral status. Despite some differences, significant similarities exist in their political and demographic developments. Both regions have been historically dominated by social democratic parties, although with stronger support in Northern Sweden. ...
  • The Nordic Municipal CEO Model: Stability in Change 

    Hlynsdóttir, Eva Marín; Cregård, Anna; Hansen, Morten Balle; Sandberg, Siv; Solli, Rolf; Torjesen, Dag Olaf; Torsteinsen, Harald Henning (Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2024-07-12)
    In this concluding chapter of the book Managing Nordic Local Governments: Paradoxes and Challenges of the Municipal Chief Executive, we present the main findings in relation to the Nordic municipal chief executive officer (MCEO) model of embeddedness. The MCEO role is discussed in relation to each of the seven conditions: the local–national welfare state, the governance model, regional dynamics and ...
  • The Municipal CEO in The Nordic Welfare State 

    Hansen, Morten Balle; Torjesen, Dag Olaf; Torsteinsen, Harald Henning (Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2024-07-12)
    This book analyses the municipal chief executive officer (MCEO) of Nordic municipalities. The Nordic countries operate a distinct model of local government in the context of the welfare state. As there are some variations among the countries, it is important to analyse this model in comparative perspective. In the Nordic countries, the post-war expansion of the welfare state took place primarily in ...

  • Heart over profit: unravelling the discourse on the non- profit sector’s added value 

    Eidslott, Erika; Wæraas, Arild; Sirris, Stephen (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-11-12)
    This paper explores Members of Parliament (MPs) perceptions of non-profit sector added value by analysing Norwegian parliamentary debates (2018–2020) through Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA). It examines how parliamentarians discursively legitimize non-profit sector organizations in public service delivery, thereby providing a lens through which this sector’s added value can be understood. We find ...
  • Føles som hjemme. Menigheten som familie. 

    Magnussen, Ida Elise (Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2024)
    «Selv om vi var langt unna, med mange fremmede, føltes det fortsatt som hjemme», sa Ruth om menigheten hun var en del av. Men, hva er egentlig et hjem? Marianne Gullestad skriver at «ordet hjem bringer sammen i ett begrep både ideen om et sted og ideen om et sosialt fellesskap knyttet til dette stedet» (1989, s. 54). Som jeg vil vise i dette kapitlet, er ikke et hjem bare en fysisk struktur, men ...
  • A Temporal Perspective on Electronic Medicine Management Work 

    Warth, Line Lundvoll; Dyb, Kari (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-05-26)
    Poor communication between professionals across levels of care regarding patients’ medication can lead to errors. Norway has invested in several electronic initiatives to improve collaboration in medicine management. This study elaborates on collaborative electronic medicine management work in specialist and primary care, asking what the problems with electronically shared medicine information are ...
  • EU external differentiated integration as a crisis response tool? Evidence from Ukraine 

    Rabinovych, Maryna (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-09-19)
    Emerging scholarship on the EU and Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine on 24 February 2022 has predominantly focused on explaining the unprecedented strength of the EU’s response, especially its new far-reaching sanctions against Russia and the granting of a candidate country status to all three Eastern Neighbours. What is missing from the picture is the role of pre-war EU-Ukraine external ...
  • How journalism forgets: on the journalistic representation of colonial biopower in Greenland 

    Blaagaard, Bolette; Adrian, Stine Willum; Nordstrand, Signe (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-09-08)
    This article presents a postcolonial and feminist analysis of 44 newspaper articles published between 1965 and 2022 about “the coil campaign” in Greenland, which fitted Greenlandic Inuit women with the IUD in the 1960s and 1970s, at times without their knowledge or consent. Using a media archive search and conducting a discursive analysis, we explore how journalistic reporting and debates ...
  • The competitive edge of Norway's hydrogen by 2030: Socio-environmental considerations 

    Cheng, Claudia Siew Wan; van Greevenbroek, Koen; Viole, Isabelle (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-08-30)
    Can Norway be an important hydrogen exporter to the European Union (EU) by 2030? We explore three scenarios in which Norway's hydrogen export market may develop: A Business-as-usual, B Moderate Onshore, C Accelerated Offshore. Applying a sector-coupled energy system model, we examine the techno-economic viability, spatial and socio-economic considerations for blue and green hydrogen export in the ...

    Mohammed, Larry Ibrahim (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-09-19)
    Recent literature on energy justice highlights the need for intersectional considerations in energy decisions. This article addresses this research gap by presenting an intersectional analysis of a rejected wind power application in Northern Norway. By employing critical discourse analysis of the primary documents in the process, such as the wind power application, impact assessments, correspondences ...
  • Både Frankrike og Storbritannia trenger en reform av valgsystemet 

    Stein, Jonas (Chronicle; Kronikk, 2024-07-08)
    Fra et demokratisk perspektiv bør varsellampene blinke.
  • Uten velgere og lokalaviser svekkes demokratiet 

    Stein, Jonas (Chronicle; Kronikk, 2023-09-11)
    Statsvitere fra hele verden samlet seg nylig i USA. De fleste var lettere sjokkert over hva som møtte dem.
  • Myten om den åpne Nordlendingen - star den i veien for god rekruttering? 

    Aure, Marit Anne (Chronicle; Kronikk, 2024-09-04)
    Konkurransen om arbeidskraft og innbyggere er stor. Mange er opptatt av rekruttering, men oppmerksomheten om å få folk til å trives og bli værende er liten. Står myten om gjestfrihet i «verdens beste land» i veien for systematisk velkomstarbeid og fokus på at alle skal trives?
  • Hunter-Gatherer Children at School: A View From the Global South 

    Ninkova, Velina; Hays, Jennifer Lynn; Lavi, Noa; Ali, Aishah; Lopes da Silva Macedo, Silvia; Davis, Helen Elizabeth; Lew-Levy, Sheina (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-06-14)
    Universal formal education is a major global development goal. Yet hunter-gatherer communities have extremely low participation rates in formal schooling, even in comparison with other marginalized groups. Here, we review the existing literature to identify common challenges faced by hunter-gatherer children in formal education systems in the Global South. We find that hunter-gatherer children are ...
  • The Contemporary Norwegian Municipal CEO 

    Torjesen, Dag Olaf; Torsteinsen, Harald Henning; Saxi, Hans Petter; Kiland, Charlotte; Karlsen, Tor-Ivar (Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2024-07-12)
    This chapter describes the evolution of the Norwegian municipal chief executive officer (MCEO) from 1980 to 1992 and 2018, when the position was weakened politically but strengthened administratively. Today, the Norwegian MCEO corresponds to Mouritzen and Svara’s council–manager model, making it one of the most powerful in the Nordic region, second only to the Finish MCEO. Despite multiple significant ...
  • “That-which-must-not-be-named”: hunting, secrecy, and the ontology of meat in northeast China 

    Fraser, Richard Alan (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-07-22)
    In this paper, I describe the practice of sharing and eating wild meat amongst the Orochen in northeast China, a community of hunters who are no longer allowed to hunt due to state conservation policies. I show how for Orochen meat is the material intermediary between the human and nonhuman worlds, offered to the fire before meals and to animal spirit-masters during hunting. I suggest this demands ...
  • The quest for a sustainable industry: mining, path dependency and post-carbon regime in the European Arctic 

    Vidal, Florian (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-06-10)
    The goal of the European Union’s Green Deal industrial plan is to achieve an ecological transition over the next three decades. This transition includes the electrification of energy and transport systems. Achieving such a transformation requires access to critical raw materials for the technologies that will enable the post-carbon transition of European societies. In this context, the European ...
