      Nyyssönen, Jukka (Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2022-06-06)
      This chapter discusses the ways in which the Sámi and their host states were framed during the final phase of Lappological research (1923–1954).

      Nyyssönen, Jukka (Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2021)
      In Finland, the involvement of scholars in politics has been particularly strong: scholars and professors have occupied positions in high politics, produced research that was meant as a direct comment on topical political debates, and been active in civil society (Häggman, 2012). In addition to advising high politics and acting in civil society, the Finnish committee institution, a third emerging ...

The political space underwent profound changes in the 1970s. ...

      Den norske historieskrivingen om samene og kvenene har fra 1970-tallet av vært preget av skiftende måter å fortelle om disse store nordlige etniske minoritetenes historie. I denne artikkelen diskuterer vi hvilke fortellingsmønstre som har preget den norske historieskrivingen om samene og kvenene, og hva slags betydning de ulike fortellingsmønstrene kan sies å ha hatt.

      Nyyssönen, Jukka (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      In previous research on the history of the Second World War in Finland and Norway, relations between the German and Austrian occupying forces and the Sami people have generally been considered to be good. The occupant gaze upon the Sami has been interpreted as exoticizing and “touristic”. Historical encounters and the Sami position in the literary discourse are discussed and explained in this article, ...

      Nyyssönen, Jukka (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017)
