A rapid-response analysis of material culture brings new perspective to disasters as they unfold. We present a case study of the coronavirus pandemic in Tromsø, Norway, based on fieldwork from March 2020 to April 2021.

    • Decolonizing production healing, belonging, and social change in sápmi 

      Magnani, Natalia; Magnani, Matthew Walker (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-07-06)
      The theory and practice of decolonization present an awkward paradox: How can social change occur in everyday life to disrupt state structures while entangled with the mundane, social, and institutional practices and representations that perpetuate state power? In Sápmi, the transborder Indigenous Sámi homeland, decolonization has been intertwined with the institutionalization of Sámi governance ...

Stressing the importance of ethical engagement with contemporary subjects, we adapt archaeological field methods—including geolocation, ...

    • Small collections remembered: Sámi material culture and community-based digitization at the Smithsonian Institution 

      Magnani, Matthew Walker; Porsanger, Jelena; Laiti, Sami; Magnani, Natalia; Olli, Anne May; Rauhala, Paula; Valkeapää, Henrik Samuel; Hollinger, Eric (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-09-18)
