Sami in Finland and Sweden
A baseline study of socio-economic effects of Northland Resources ore establishment in northern Sweden and Finland Indigenous peoples and rights Stefan Ekenberg Luleå University of Technology Department of Human Work Sciences 2008 Universitetstryckeriet, Luleå A baseline study of socio-economic effects of Northland Resources ore establishment in northern Sweden and Finland Indigenous peoples and rights Stefan Ekenberg Department of Human Work Sciences Luleå University of Technology 1 Summary The Sami is considered to be one people with a common homeland, Sápmi, but divided into four national states, Finland, Norway, Russia and Sweden. The indigenous rights therefore differ in each country. Finlands Sami policy may be described as accommodative. The accommodative Sami policy has had two consequences. Firstly, it has made Sami collective issues non-political and has thus change focus from previously political mobilization to present substate administration. Secondly, the depoliticization of the Finnish Sami probably can explain the absent of overt territorial conflicts. However, this has slightly changes due the discussions on implementation of the ILO Convention No 169. Swedish Sami politics can be described by quarrel and distrust. Recently the implementation of ILO Convention No 169 has changed this description slightly and now there is a clear legal demand to consult the Sami in land use issues that may affect the Sami. The Reindeer herding is an important indigenous symbol and business for the Sami especially for the Swedish Sami. Here is the reindeer herding organized in a so called Sameby, which is an economic organisations responsible for the reindeer herding. Only Sami that have parents or grandparents who was a member of a Sameby may become members. -

How People Regard the Mine Establishment in Kaunisvaara, Tapuli and Hannukainen Areas
A baseline study of socio-economic effects of Northland Resources ore establishment in northern Sweden and Finland How people regard the mine establishment in Kaunisvaara, Tapuli and Hannukainen areas Peter Waara, Leif Berglund, Leena Soudunsaari and Ville Koskimäki Luleå University of Technology Department of Human Work Sciences 2008 Universitetstryckeriet, Luleå A baseline study of socio-economic effects of Northland Resources ore establishment in northern Sweden and Finland How people regard the mine establishment in Kaunisvaara, Tapuli and Hannukainen areas Peter Waara, Leif Berglund, Leena Soudunsaari and Ville Koskimäki Department of Human Work Sciences Luleå University of Technology 2 Summary of interview study. It is difficult to define who is or is not a legitimate stakeholder when it comes to issues that most likely will affect a community and a region for some 30 or 40 years. With regard taken to known sources of influence, such as environmental effects open pits eventually will give raise to, the dimensions of not yet acknowledged risks, effects and other factors will, sooner or later, be addressed in debates, thoughts and also actions of various kind. Who will be more or less likely to act and to react against the opening of mines in these remote areas in Finland and Sweden? Such questions will not be answered in this paper/report, since we have no possibility to foresee how people actually will respond to both positive as well as negative effects of the development of iron ore mining in Kaunisvaara and in Haanukainen. Our report aims to define and present on a descriptive level how a sample of people from both Finland and Sweden today, before the mines are opened, think about opportunities and risks associ- ated to the exploitation of iron ore in this region. -

After a preface, we will first try to depict the history of the Geophysical Observatory in Sodankylä (SGO) by referring to the personalities who have run and have shaped the observatory. Thereafter, we describe the history from a technical point of view, i.e., what the measurements were, and which instruments were primarily used at the observatory. We will also refer to present operational forms and techniques. We start with the very first systematic meteorological and geophysical observations made in Finland and end by referring to the involvement in ongoing international scientific programs. 1 Preface thereby, developed to the current Finnish Meteorological In- stitute (FMI; see below). Sodankylä (SOD)1 is a village located about 800 km (950 km The University of Helsinki abandoned its magnetic obser- by car) north of Helsinki, the capital of Finland. From the vatory in 1881, and the observatory was transferred to the Arctic Circle, it is about 125 km northward to the village. It management of the Finnish Society of Sciences and Letters is embedded in the auroral belt. (FSSL)2, which was established in 1838. The priorities of the Regular meteorological observations in Finland started observatory changed from magnetism to meteorology, but in the middle of the 18th century at the Royal Academy magnetic measurements have continued up to today. -

Baltic Forestry, 13 (2): 179183. Abstract Anthropogenic stress has affected forest trees for decades and will continue to do so in the foreseeable future. The Scots pine tree condition was evaluated and tree height was measured at age twelve in provenance field trial established on two sites under strong and weak pollution levels in Kola Peninsula, NW Russia. The seedlings of three Finnish origins (Muonio, Ylitornio and Suomussalmi) were used for establishment of the trial. Based on needle, bud and stem observations, the evaluation of the condition was performed. Surprisingly the condition was better and trees were slightly taller on the strongly than weakly polluted site with significant differences among some provenances from northern Finland. The trees had a significantly higher condition (p<0.05) in the northernmost provenance (Muonio) than in the more southern ones (Ylitornio and Suomussalmi) under weak pollution. On the strongly polluted site, the differences between provenances were insignificant. -

Finnish Swedish Infrastructure.Pdf
The Swedish-Finnish railway bridge over Torne River in Haparanda/Tornio. The Swedish part is blue and the Finnish part is grey. Photo: Thomas Johansson Abstract North Finland and North Sweden are sparsely populated areas with rich natural resources, forests, nature as tourist industry and especially exploitable deposits. There are also plenty of activities supporting that industry in the area. Long transports pose a challenge. A driving force behind this study is the demand for raw materials on the world market and the rise in market prices which led the mining industry to invest in research in the region. This is combined with the need to regard national infrastructure development also in a European and international perspective. This study is concentrated on iron ore transports in Pajala-Kolari area because the mines, with a size comparable with the Swedish iron ore mine in Malmberget, cannot be opened without an efficient chain of logistics. The transports from and to the planned mines will also mean considerable changes to the transport patterns in the North. The mining activities will create up to 1800 new jobs in Sweden and Finland and the investments in the necessary infrastructure will add the job opportunities during the construction period. The cost benefits of the different alternatives of the whole chain of transport from mine to customer as well as the models of implementation suitable for major infrastructure construction projects, were evaluated and compared. In addition the socio-economical consequences of the mining operations and costs for the construction of infrastructure and transports were assessed. The result is thus based on several technical and economical sub-surveys made during this study as background studies. -
