Eli-Anita Romsa, Miessemánnu 2018 i Abstract This master’s thesis examines how Sámi people were represented in postcards from Norwegian Sápmi during the late 19th century to present day. The study explores how postcards can unveil both grand narratives and personal and local stories. Portraying Sámi people and culture as exotic and different, is a commonality in touristic representations of the Sámi. Postcards with Sámi motifs are no exception. I argue that the postcards depict the Sámi in an “emblematic” way, through a focus on nature, reindeer herding and traditional clothing. This kind of representation is not only conducted by outsiders, and I maintain that emblems are likely to be utilized as a strategy to satisfy the demands in the tourism market. Postcards trigger memories, and can therefore be used to bring personal and local stories to the forefront. As such they serve to individualize rather than objectify, reconstruct stories of the past, and shed light on Sámi agency. Further, postcards can be instruments for the Sámi themselves. When they produce their own postcards, or repatriate old postcards through artistic work, the postcards become powerful tools in revitalization processes and contribute in shaping Sámi identities. ii Abstrákta Dán váldofágabarggus iskojuvvo movt sámi álbmot ovddastahttojuvvui boastagoarttain norggabeale sámis 1800-logu loahpas gitta dálá áigái.

  • Tautra and Hoklingen, Based on a Compilation of 14C-Dates
    NGU BULLETIN, RESEARCH ARTICLE Age of the Younger Dryas ice-marginal substages in Mid-Norway – Tautra and Hoklingen, based on a compilation of 14C-dates Olsen, L.1, Høgaas, F.1 and Sveian, H.1 1 Geological Survey of Norway, P.O. Box 6315 Sluppen, N-7491 Trondheim The ice-marginal Tautra and Hoklingen Substages in the Trøndelag counties, Mid-Norway, have for a long time been referred to as of early and late Younger Dryas (YD) age, respectively. The basis for this is the regional distribution and morphological correlations of the associated moraines and a number of 14C- datings, mainly of marine shells, previously presented in different papers and map-sheets. In this overview article we present a collection of all 14C-dates associated (more or less accurately) with the Tautra and Hoklingen Substages, a number of 49 and 27 respectively. Using all these dates for a first approximation constrain the Tautra Substage to the age interval 13000 – 12500 cal yr BP and the Hoklingen Substage to 12180 –11600 cal yr BP. Improved accuracy of the age intervals can be obtained by further weighing of geology and stratigraphical positions of the dates. Omitting of dates considered to be slightly too old or too young to be strictly representative, have reduced the number of representative dates for Tautra to 24 and for Hoklingen to 22. The corresponding age intervals are now 12900 – 12620 cal yr BP and 12180 – 11760 cal yr BP, for Tautra and Hoklingen respectively. The Vedde Ash Bed, with established age 12066 ± 42 cal yr BP in western Norway, and dated near Trondheim to 12055 ± 35 cal yr BP, is recorded distally to the Tautra Substage and between the Tautra and Hoklingen Substage deposits, but not closer distally than 5 km and not proximally to the latter.

  • Nkps Presse I 1920-Årene
    Tidsskrift for arbeiderbevegelsens historie, 1, 1979 Einhart Lorenz NKPs presse i 1920-årene. Betydningen av proletarisk pressevirksomhet som agitasjons- og propagandamiddel ble tidlig erkjent av DNA. Allerede i 1912 grunnla det sitt eget nyhetsbyrå. Etter at den «nye ret­ ning» vant fram, ble partiets pressetjeneste utbygd. Dette skjedde under Christian Hilts ledelse. Antallet DNA-aviser økte. Ser en bort fra hovedorganet, ble avisene tradisjonelt ikke underlagt noen kontroll fra sentralstyrets side. Avisene tilhørte snarere de lokale partiorganisasjonene. På den måten kunne de også etter 1918 gi uttrykk for opposisjonelle ret­ ninger. DNA var ikke i stand til å oppfylle Kominterns 21 opptaksbetingelser hvor det bl.a. het: «både den periodiske og ikke-periodiske presse(...) skal fullstendig underlegges par­ tiets sentralkomité». Men for Komintern var det neppe om å gjøre at denne bestemmelsen ble etterlevd, for da forholdet til DNA-flertallet tilspisset seg, viste det seg at det fortsatt var mulig for Komintemtilhengere å redigere DNA-aviser, selv etter Tranmæl-fløyens seier i 1923. Av DNAs 16 dagsaviser i tiden for splittelsen, hadde 7 av dem redaktører fra mindretal­ let. Når det gjaldt de 14 avisene som kom ut tre ganger i uken, hadde bare 3 Tranmæl-tilhengere som redaktører. Splittelsen i november fikk også betydning for pressesitua- sjonen. DNA-joumalistenes organisasjon, Norges kommu­ nistiske presseforening, delte seg. Flertallet fulgte NKP.1 Foruten å avgjøre framtidig partimedlemskap, måtte lokalor­ ganisasjonene også bestemme hvem avisen skulle tilfalle. Metodene som ble brukt under disse stridighetene, gjorde uten tvil den allerede eksisterende bitterheten mellom de to fløyene enda større. Resultatet falt uheldig ut for NKP.

  • The Story of MIT-Fablab Norway: Community Embedding of Peer Production
    Journal of Peer Production ISSN: 2213-5316 http://peerproduction.net The Story of MIT-Fablab Norway: Community Embedding of Peer Production Cindy Kohtala and Camille Bosqué Abstract: MIT-Fablab Norway was one of the first Fab Labs ever established, in northern Norway in 2002. Despite this auspicious beginning to a network that is rapidly growing, surprisingly little has been written about the genesis of the network or the Fab Lab itself. We therefore aim to contribute to this knowledge gap with a narrative account of our independent ethnographic research visits to the Lab. We combine our researcher perspectives, which are informed by, on the one hand, Aesthetics and a phenomenological understanding and, on the other, Science and Technology Studies, with Design Research bridging both. Our account aims to richly describe the Lab’s unique profile in the MIT Fab Lab network as a socially shaped entity and product of a particular time and place. Most salient in this narrative is the role of its charismatic founder, whose stories and metaphors become vehicles by which we come to understand how a Fab Lab forms its own identity, balancing the relationships with local stakeholders against those with the Fab Lab network; how it promotes certain principles and values of peer production; and how it represents itself to both maker insiders and outsiders. While situated and particular to this Lab, our interpretations may have implications for the trajectories of other Fab Labs and makerspaces, as well as our understanding of peer production as a new paradigm. Keywords: Fab Lab, ethnography, MIT-Fablab Norway, material peer production Cindy Kohtala and Camille Bosqué In spite of this emerging body of work, there remains a certain mystique that surrounds Fab Labs, their objectives and activities.
