  • Some Principles of the Use of Macro-Areas Language Dynamics &A
    Online Appendix for Harald Hammarstr¨om& Mark Donohue (2014) Some Principles of the Use of Macro-Areas Language Dynamics & Change Harald Hammarstr¨om& Mark Donohue The following document lists the languages of the world and their as- signment to the macro-areas described in the main body of the paper as well as the WALS macro-area for languages featured in the WALS 2005 edi- tion. 7160 languages are included, which represent all languages for which we had coordinates available1. Every language is given with its ISO-639-3 code (if it has one) for proper identification. The mapping between WALS languages and ISO-codes was done by using the mapping downloadable from the 2011 online WALS edition2 (because a number of errors in the mapping were corrected for the 2011 edition). 38 WALS languages are not given an ISO-code in the 2011 mapping, 36 of these have been assigned their appropri- ate iso-code based on the sources the WALS lists for the respective language. This was not possible for Tasmanian (WALS-code: tsm) because the WALS mixes data from very different Tasmanian languages and for Kualan (WALS- code: kua) because no source is given. 17 WALS-languages were assigned ISO-codes which have subsequently been retired { these have been assigned their appropriate updated ISO-code. In many cases, a WALS-language is mapped to several ISO-codes. As this has no bearing for the assignment to macro-areas, multiple mappings have been retained. 1There are another couple of hundred languages which are attested but for which our database currently lacks coordinates.

  • Researching Less-Resourced Languages – the Digisami Corpus
    Researching Less-Resourced Languages – the DigiSami Corpus Kristiina Jokinen University of Helsinki, Finland and AIRC, AIST Tokyo Waterfront, Japan [email protected] Abstract Increased use of digital devices and data repositories has enabled a digital revolution in data collection and language research, and has also led to important activities supporting speech and language technology research for less-resourced languages. This paper describes the DigiSami project and its research results, focussing on spoken corpus collection and speech technology for the Fenno-Ugric language North Sami. The paper also discusses multifaceted questions on ethics and privacy related to data collection for less-resourced languages and indigenous communities. Keywords: corpus collection, under-resourced languages, North Sami with new technology applications. The main motivation 1. Introduction was to improve digital visibility and viability of the target languages, and to explore different choices for encouraging Several projects and events have increased research and maintaining the use of less-resourced languages in the activities for under-resourced languages during the past digitalized world. The goals of the DigiSami project are years. For instance, the DLDP-project (Digital Language discussed in Jokinen (2014) and Jokinen et al. (2017). Diversity Project) is to advance the sustainability of Europe’s regional and minority languages, while the Flare- The DigiSami project deals with the North Sami language net network and the LRE Map (Calzolari et al. 2012) have (Davvisámegiela) which belongs to the Fenno-Ugric had a big impact on sharing language resources and making language family and is one of the nine Sami languages speech corpora freely available.

  • ILO Convention No
    Juridica Lapponica 37 TANJA JOONA TANJA The academic dissertation: “ILO Convention No. 169 in a Nordic Context with Comparative Analysis: An Interdisciplinary Approach” represents a study in the fields of international law and international relations with a focus on indigenous peoples and their special rights to land. The interdisciplinary study adopts a comparative perspective in regard to the International ILO Convention No. 169 in a Nordic Context with Comparative Analysis: An Interdisciplinary Approach Analysis: An Interdisciplinary Context with Comparative in a Nordic Labour Organization (ILO) Convention No. 169 concerning the rights of indigenous peoples. While the focus is on Nordic countries, particularly Finland, Sweden and Norway, the importance is been placed on evaluating the reporting processes related to the ratification of the Convention. These reports are examined by the Committee of Experts of the ILO (CEACR) and, thus, represent mostly interesting and valuable Latin American examples. Two themes arise within the context of this study: the first are the land rights articles of ILO Convention No. 169, while the second are the subjects, or beneficiaries, of those rights. These two themes are placed within the broader context of the study through the explanation of the system of state sovereignty at the beginning of the thesis. The TANJA JOONA concluding chapter presents liberal perspectives on human rights. It can be argued that indigenous ILO Convention No. 169 peoples’ claims to prior and continued sovereignty over their territories question the source and in a Nordic Context with Comparative Analysis: legitimacy of state authority.

First, I am grateful to the University of Tromsø that opened my path to an international academic milieu by admitting me to the Indigenous Master Programme where I met my classmates from all over the world, Saami professors with personal experience in the indigenous self-determination movement, and other researchers on indigenous issues. Moreover, the Centre for Sámi Studies played an active role in my educational process, by organising seminars (at Skibotn) and conferences (the Forum for Development Cooperation with Indigenous Studies), trips to Finnmark (Karasjok, Kautokeino, Alta) and to Kåfjord (Manndalen) and finally, funding my research project. My gratitude goes as well to the Norwegian State Educational Loan Fund (Lånekassen) and the Centre for Environment and Development (SEMUT) for their financial support that made this research possible. My greatest gratitude and thanks go to my supervisor Bjørn Bjerkli, Associate Professor at the Department of Social Anthropology at the Tromsø University, who devoted a great deal of his time reading and commenting on my work.

  • International Year of Indigenous Languages – Sami People and Languages in the EU
    AT A GLANCE International Year of Indigenous Languages – Sami people and languages in the EU Indigenous languages are the essence of indigenous peoples' culture and traditions. They constitute the majority of the almost 7 000 languages spoken all over the world, yet, tragically, almost half of them are threatened with extinction. The loss of an indigenous language results in the loss of culture, tradition and ancestral knowledge, mainly botanical, gathered throughout the ages by those who speak it, resulting also in the loss of biodiversity. In light of this, the UN General Assembly declared 2019 the International Year of Indigenous Languages. United Nations International Year of Indigenous Languages In 2007, the UN General Assembly adopted the UN Declaration on the rights of indigenous peoples, among them their linguistic rights, including their right to education and culture in their own language and to establishing their language media. In December 2016, the UN adopted its resolution on the rights of indigenous peoples and proclaimed 2019 the Year of Indigenous Languages (IYIL), drawing attention to a vast number of endangered languages, particularly indigenous ones, and the urgent need to preserve, promote and revitalise them. The loss of indigenous, regional or minority languages diminishes linguistic diversity and reduces the world's cultural richness. These languages are important for the preservation of indigenous cultures and traditions as well as for indigenous peoples' survival, health, participation in economic and social life, access to justice, and the prevention of abuses against them in the countries they live in. Indigenous peoples and languages There is no single universal definition of indigenous peoples, but Unesco defines them by their descent from ancestral local populations and their distinct social, cultural and economic conditions.

  • Sami in Spreminjajoča Arktika
    UNIVERZA V LJUBLJANI FAKULTETA ZA DRUŽBENE VEDE Lana Vidmar The Sami and the Changing Arctic Sami in spreminjajoča Arktika Magistrsko delo Ljubljana, 2016 UNIVERZA V LJUBLJANI FAKULTETA ZA DRUŽBENE VEDE Lana Vidmar Mentor: prof. dr. Mitja Žagar The Sami and the Changing Arctic Sami in spreminjajoča Arktika Magistrsko delo Ljubljana, 2016 I would like to thank Mrs. Anita Žagar and Mrs. Tatjana Zajc for technical support, understanding and patience through all my student years, all the participants in the survey, especially those who left inspiring and kind comments, professor Per Selle for sharing his in-depth understanding of the Sami politics and letting me join his class and Marianne Tøraasen for her help with the Norwegian version of the survey. I am grateful to my supervisor, professor Mitja Žagar, for all his time, effort and kindness. And finally, I am always in debt to Ivana Ivković for her inspiration, motivation, time management and love. Izjava o avtorstvu Sami in spreminjajoča Arktika Magistrska naloga obravnava dva pojava: ljudstvo Sami in Arktiko. Ljudstvo Sami je avtohtono prebivalstvo Norveške, Švedske, Finske in Rusije. So ljudstvo, ki živi v štirih državah in si v njih prizadeva za vzpostavitev svoje neteritorialne avtonomije. Glavni instrument njihovega političnega vpliva so ”Sami parlamenti” v državah, katerih državljani so, v Rusiji pa imajo zelo omejene pravne možnosti za participacijo in vpliv na svoj položaj. Arktika je najsevernejši del Zemlje; zajema ogromen ocean, ki je večinoma prekrit z ledom, in kopno, ki ga obdaja. To je domovina ljudstva Sami. Pet obalnih držav, ki so Združene države Amerike, Kanada, Rusija, Norveška in Grenlandija (Danska), je skupaj z Islandijo, Švedsko in Finsko ustanovilo Arktični svet, medvladno supranacionalno organizacijo Arktike; v okviru Arktičnega sveta sprejemajo vse pomembne odločitve.
