    • Hva gjør vi med reindriften? 

      Bjørklund, Ivar (Chronicle; Kronikk, 2013)
      Den samiske reindriften står i dag ved en skillevei – sammen med norske myndigheter. Veivalget handler om man fortsatt vil opprettholde den siste samiske kulturbærende næring eller om man vil handle på tvers av folkerettslige forpliktelser, lovfestede rettigheter og allmenn politisk anstendighet. Reindriftens skjebne er at den alltid har vært forvaltet og forstått gjennom de ideologiske oppfatninger ...

This paper is a reflection on the experiences in ...

      Marin, Andrei Florin; Bjørklund, Ivar (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015-03)
      Reindeer herding in Finnmark has been widely perceived during the last few decades as a perfect example of the tragedy of the commons. The present article claims that this discourse relies on flawed assumption regarding land tenure. Our historical analysis of the term ‘common’ in relation to resources in Finnmark shows the term to reflect a misunderstanding of local categories, practices, and concerns ...
