(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-08-26)Skolen legger føringer for undervisning om samisk historie, språk, kultur, samfunn og rettigheter.

Learning to aspire, aspiring to subvert: Namibian San youths' narratives about the future as mimetic work of resistance
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-03-06)This article examines Namibian San youths’ aspirations about the future. Based on 170 essays, the analysis shows that disadvantaged San students aspire for future lives radically different from the lives of their families. We argue that San students have acquired the repertoire of “the good Namibian citizen” as a form of resistance through mimesis. These assertions create an opening for the projection ... -
Cryptic impact: Visual detection of corona light and avoidance of power lines by reindeer
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-02-06)Assessing the impact of human development on animals is complicated by the fact that overt effects may have covert causes. Cryptic impacts (sensu Raiter et al. 2014) can arise where sensory stimuli to which species respond fall outside the human sensory range. Ultraviolet (UV) light, which is detected by a range of nonprimate mammals, is a potential example. We review evidence that dark-adapted eyes ... -

The state as a whiteman, the whiteman as a |'hun: Personhood, recognition, and the politics of knowability in the Kalahari
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-02-24)The Ju|’hoansi of east central Namibia sometimes refer to the state as a whiteman and to the whiteman as a /’hun (steenbok). In this article, I contextualize these naming practices by tracing the history of colonial encounters on the fringes of the Western Kalahari through a small-scale animist perspective. I then discuss what this means for the concept of ‘recognition’, which I treat as a two-way ... -

(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-08-01)How does the often-invisible nature of pollution affect people's physical health and psychosocial relations, and their well-being near major industrial projects? Based on long-term ethnographic fieldwork in Northern Alberta, Canada, this article explores this question by focusing on oil sands extraction on Cree, Dené and Métis nations' homelands with its environmental and socio-cultural consequences. ... -

Perpetuating the myth of the "wild Bushman": Inclusive multicultural education for the Omaheke Ju|'hoansi in Namibia

Despite these positive provisions, severely marginalized groups, such as the Omaheke Ju|’hoansi, continue to underperform and drop out of school at greater rates than ... -

The shrinking resource base of pastoralism: Saami reindeer husbandry in a climate of change
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-02-10)The productive performance of large ungulates in extensive pastoral grazing systems is modulated simultaneously by the effects of climate change and human intervention independent of climate change.

We used Saami reindeer husbandry in Norway as a model in which to examine ...
