It argues that both the term and the concept of national park evolved in a long-lasting deliberative pro- cess between competing definitions. The main actors in this process were geographers, forestry scientists and NGOs devoted to popular edu- cation and the promotion of tourism. As a result of the debates, iconic landscapes and species were located in Finnish nature inside the wholly artificial boundaries of the national parks. Eventually, both the science and tourism poles of the decades-long debate were incorporated into the plans and visions for Finland’s national parks in the early twentieth century. The national park debate between the 1880s and 1910s focused mainly on landscapes, land formations and vegetation zones, and not so much on the wildlife or indeed the people who lived inside these areas.

Viewed from the perspective of several hundred years of history, the Arctic character and Northernness have never been recorded in the development plans or government programmes for the area that later became known as Finland in as much detail as they were in Finland’s Arctic Strategy published in 2010.

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.

  • Crisis Management in Finnish National Parks
    Out of the Woods: Crisis Management in Finnish National Parks Heidi Painilainen Bachelor’s Thesis Degree Programme in Tourism 2011 Abstract Degree programme in tourism Author or authors Group or year Heidi Painilainen of entry Autumn 2007 Title of report Number of Out of the Woods: Crisis Management in Finnish National pages and Parks appendices 56 + 5 Teacher/s or supervisor/s Eva Holmberg, Annika Konttinen The objective of this thesis was to study the crisis management of Finnish national parks. In practice this involves assessing the possible crises that could actually occur in the national parks, how these could be prevented and, finally, what kinds of tools are used for managing these. The theoretical framework of the study introduces crisis management, life-cycle of crisis and national park management. To get a closer look at the national parks, five case studies of different Finnish national parks were conducted. The chosen nation- al parks include Archipelago National Park, Oulanka National Park, Pallas- Yllästunturi National Park, Patvinsuo National Park and Päijänne National Park. These parks were selected since they represent different locations, sizes, environ- mental features and, therefore, also potential crises. The approach of the study is qualitative and the semi-structured interview was cho- sen as the main method of research. A representative of each selected national park was interviewed individually. The interviews resulted in five 29–55 minute recorded conversations which were subsequently transcribed for the purpose of analysis. The interviews were conducted in February 2011 and four of them were executed by Skype due to the long distances.

  • Mo Birget Soađis (How to Cope with War) – Strategies of Sámi Resilience During the German Influence
    Mo birget soađis (How to cope with war) – strategies of Sámi resilience during the German influence Adaptation and resistance in Sámi relations to Germans in wartime Sápmi, Norway and Finland 1940-1944 Abstract The article studies the Sámi experiences during the “German era” in Norway and Finland, 1940-44, before the Lapland War. The Germans ruled as occupiers in Norway, but had no jurisdiction over the civilians in Finland, their brothers-in-arms. In general, however, encounters between the local people and the Germans appear to have been cordial in both countries. Concerning the role of racial ideology, it seems that the Norwegian Nazis had more negative opinions of the Sámi than the occupiers, while in Finland the racial issues were not discussed. The German forces demonstrated respect for the reindeer herders as communicators of important knowledge concerning survival in the arctic. The herders also possessed valuable meat reserves. Contrary to this, other Sámi groups, such as the Sea Sámi in Norway, were ignored by the Germans resulting in a forceful exploitation of sea fishing. Through the North Sámi concept birget (coping with) we analyse how the Sámi both resisted and adapted to the situation. The cross-border area of Norway and Sweden is described in the article as an exceptional arena for transnational reindeer herding, but also for the resistance movement between an occupied and a neutral state. Keyword: Sámi, WWII, Norway and Finland, reindeer husbandry, local meetings, Birget Sámi in different wartime contexts In 1940 the German forces occupied Norway. Next year, as brothers-in-arms, they got northern Finland under their military command in order to attack Soviet Union.
