  • "Collective Rights in a Modernizing North – on Institutionalizing Sámi and Local Rights to Land and Water in Northern Norway"
    Paper for the IASCP Europe Regional Meeting ”Building the European Commons: From Open Fields to Open Source” Brescia, Italy; March 23-25, 2006 "Collective Rights in a Modernizing North – on institutionalizing Sámi and Local rights to land and water in Northern Norway". Audun Sandberg, Assoc. Professor, Faculty of Social Science, Bodø University College, Norway Summary: Devolution and the institutionalizing of indigenous and local rights in the northern areas of the world have been a lengthy process. Alaska, Canada, Russia and the Nordic countries have experienced long and painful constitutional processes that are far from resolved yet. Among these, one of the most interesting ones is the 25 year long Norwegian political and legal process to establish local property rights to “land and water” in the northern province of Finnmark. This paper gives an update and a framework for analysing this process at the verge of the implementation of a new property rights regime in the north. In this Northern Province, institutional developments have been distinctly different from the rest of Norway. This has been a meeting place between “the three tribes” (the Sámi, the © Audun Sandberg 2 Háløygs and the Kven) at the same time as the state has had a significant and powerful presence in the area since the 16th century. The evolving institutions are also characterized by a customary collective use of the harvestable resources on land and water in the entire area and the nomadic pasturing and managing rights of the reindeer herders which have evolved from ancient use and are independent of the rights of the owners of the ground.

Briefly about the Sami people and the Saami Council 1. Traditionally, the Sami people enjoyed a nomadic lifestyle, with hunting, fishing, and gathering as main livelihoods. Later, many Sami communities took up semi- nomadic reindeer herding, while other complimented their traditional livelihoods with farming. Yet others maintained and developed fjord and coastal fishing as well as freshwater fishing as their main livelihood or in combination with small farming. A large part of the Sami people lives and exercises their culture in the fjords and coasts of what is today Norway. 2. Reindeer herding is considered the most distinctive and characteristic among the Sami traditional livelihoods, and the most cardinal among the Sami cultural denominators. However, fjord and coastal fishing and salmon fishing in the rivers, often in combination with small farms, are equally important livelihoods for the Sami people in Norway. 3.

  • The Precambrian Schists and Gneisses of Lakselv Valley, Northern Norway
    The Precambrian schists and gneisses of Lakselv valley, northern Norway. liV DWIGHT CROWDER With 2 text-figures and 2 plates Abstract. The principal rocks of the Lakselv valley area are well-foliated hornblende schist and mica-quartz schists and lesser amounts of quartzite and marble. The hornblende schist overlies most of the mica-quartz schists and in several places is interlayered with them on a small scale. The structure of these layered rocks consists of several broad folds trending and plunging easterly. Most of these rocks probably represent sediments that were metamorphosed in Pre cambrian time under conditions of the epidote-amphibolite facies. Some of the hornblende schist has been transformed to small masses of hornblende gneiss and diorite, and a large sill of quartz diorite and a small stock of granite have been emplaced. These rocks, which were originally more or less massive, have been metamorphosed to gneisses; this metamorphism obscures their original mode of emplacement. More recently, horblende schist has been converted into chlorite schist in shear zones, and small sills of ultrabasic rock have been emplaced. Introduction. The Lakselv valley is at the head of Porsangerfjord on the north coast of Northern Norway (see Fig. 1). The rocks described in this report are the metamorphic rocks which occur in the Lakselv valley from Porsangerfjord on the north to near the hamlet of Skoganvarre on the south. Near the southern boundary the otherwise extensive out crops in Lakselv valley become very scarce due to a blanket of moraine. The metamorphic rocks of the valley are overlain uncomformably in the abrupt valley sides by beds of Caledonian sedimentary rocks; the contact between these sedimentary rocks and the metamorphic rocks forms the east and the west limits of the mapping.
