  • Indigenous Rights to Defend Land and Traditional Activities: a Case Study of the Sami in Northern Sweden
    RDFG – Revista de Direito da Faculdade Guanambi v. 5, n. 1, janeiro-junho 2018 Doi:10.29293/rdfg.v5i1.211 INDIGENOUS RIGHTS TO DEFEND LAND AND TRADITIONAL ACTIVITIES: A CASE STUDY OF THE SAMI IN NORTHERN SWEDEN DIREITOS INDÍGENAS PARA DEFENDER A TERRA E ATIVIDADES TRADICIONAIS: UM ESTUDO DE CASO DO SÁMI NO NORTE DA SUÉCIA Apostolos Tsiouvalas1 University of Akureyri (UNAK), Iceland. [email protected] Margherita Paola Poto2 K.G. Jebsen Centre for the Law of the Sea (UIT), Tromsø, Norway. [email protected] Abstract: One of the largest remaining unexploited iron ore deposits in Europe is the Kallak Iron Deposit in the province of Norrbotten in northern Sweden, where a significant Sámi population is located. Since 2011, the UK- based company, Beowulf Mining, has begun a large campaign for extraction in northern and southern Kallak. However, the Sámi of the region, together with environmentalists and non-Sámi individuals have drastically expressed their opposition blocking with various ways the processes. The Sámi being aware of the environmental risk have concerns about their ability to drive reindeer across the land, and the impact Beowulf’s operations are likely to have on the reindeer migratory patterns. Nowadays, seven years after the initial application for licensing, the approval of the application is still pending and Beowulf is pressing more and more the Swedish authorities for a final response in order to start extracting. Only the County Administrative Board of Norrbotten, despite its initial consent, still advocates for Sámi and their reindeer refusing to issue licensing for the British company. Accordingly, this article was designed as a descriptive study of the legal framework of the implementation of this endeavour addressing the legal arguments of both sides as they derive from a qualitative study of official documents, environmental reports, and relative articles of scholars.

Discuss.: 26 August 2015 Revised: 1 April 2016 – Accepted: 5 April 2016 – Published: 26 April 2016 Abstract. The paper deals with the comparison of the time series drawn from different climate databases. We compared the observed data with the modeled data of monthly and seasonal temperature means and precipitation totals. Reliable and longest available time series of such data represent the basic starting point of dendroclimatic analyses. We evaluated the differences in the growth response of spruce derived using different databases of the considered climatic variables. The stem cores used to derive the cross-correlation function were taken from Hårås locality situated in the boreal zone of the Swedish part of Lapland. We compared the observed records from the nearest weather stations situated 18, 40, 70 and 110 km away from the locality with the interpolated data from four modeled temperature databases and four modeled precipitation databases generated by KNMI Climate Explorer.
