title: Discourse in a modern Arctic: can we supplant sovereignty? – commentary to Pawliw, Berthold and Lasserre
date: 2021-06-24
words: 1435
flesch: 50
summary: In the article (Pawliw et al. 2021), discourse is understood as a method of influence (Seignour 2011), to create or rewrite the narrative of Canadian sovereignty. The article written by Pawliw, Berthold and Lasserre (2021) is an apt discussion of fluctuating attitudes to the Arctic in political discourse, and poignantly highlights that political discourse changes to suit political motivations.

summary: We often witness child rights advocates (who seem to rely on the ‘ideal white pupil’ imagination) drawing attention to the cultural reasons why children’s rights to education are not fulfilled or the political economic and material deprivation that hinders effective learning in schools. In other words, we recognize the philosophical value of Ubuntu for a decolonial, childist approach to global education, but we exercise caution in so far as we do not automatically favor ‘local pride’.

summary: The authors display a comparison between Stephen Harper’s (2006–2015) and Justin Trudeau’s (2015–present) official discourses concerning Franklin’s lost expedition and show how the same discourse – specifically the role of Inuit Arctic knowledges and the collaboration between Canadian searchers and Inuit inhabitants of the region – can be interpreted in various ways to suit various political agendas. In a certain way, the revalorization of Inuit oral history and testimonies in the historiography of Franklin’s lost expedition can be understood as an example of “recomplexification” of the North and of the Arctic.

summary: Here, social capital is defined as ‘social materiality’, as certain type of ‘class space’ (Marsden et al. 2003), or ‘soft infrastructure’ (Barraket et al. 2019), which forms an important part in the construction of local communities (Scott et al. 2017). However, the study also indicates that the distribution of rural municipalities into municipality districts can jeopardise local coherence and socio-cultural sustainability.

summary: However, no major research and development projects on local planning, including the role of politicians and political parties, in shrinking rural regions in Norway have been undertaken. It is crucial, therefore, both to develop knowledge of why local planning in Norway disregards shrinkage as well as the consequences this has for planning and the future of rural societies, and to develop theories, concepts and models for more suitable knowledge-based and innovative local planning that can meet this complex societal challenge.

summary: However, an assumption that proximity to municipal centres is ‘good enough’ for resource access is dangerous when applied to village populations as a whole (Humer & Granqvist 2020). With village populations expected to continue to age, this is of course not just an issue of school access.

summary: A commitment to hungry translation – or the work of engaging in an ongoing relation between self and other despite the unevenness of the terrain in which such translations take place – is an essential practice for reclaiming theory for collective liberation. We were wondering whether you see hungry translations – the work of engaging in an ongoing relation between self and other despite the unevenness of the terrain in which such translations take place – also as a way of reclaiming theory for collective liberation.

summary: Lohues (2008) – singer-songwriter from Drenthe, the Netherlands With her keynote and publication in Fennia, Josefina Syssner (2022) offers a very comprehensive overview of how the research agenda’s for understanding rural shrinking geographies have developed over the past decades. In the Netherlands, and probably other North-Western European countries as well, we mostly witness a large share of older migrants as a cause of rural population growth.

summary: Highlighting the topic of shrinking geographies at an international geographic conference held in a Nordic regional centre surrounded by shrinking places was a natural choice as it directly addresses issues of local concern. The COVID-19 pandemic questioned previsions of continuous urbanisation as rural living trends became increasingly popular and provided hope for, at least, a temporary window of opportunity for shrinking places.

summary: In one of our seminars, our excellent keynote speaker Anna Lundberg reminded of this with the ethics checklist that she had developed in the context of refugee research, upon which we expanded in a blog piece on research ethics (Leinonen et al. 2020). With this short reflective piece, then, I would like to turn my attention to this dual imperative in conjunction with openly exploring the kinds of challenges I have faced whilst aiming to conduct refugee research that is at the same time relevant for policy and policy critical.

Finally, the emergence of the techno-borderscape (Godin & Doná 2020) has moved large parts of arrival infrastructures, both the bordering and the support that these represent, and possibilities of home-making online, with many migrants simultaneously having reduced access to the digital spaces.

summary: When dealing with development research, it is fundamental to discuss about human capacity de- velopment as part of undertaking research, espe- cially when developing societies and their prob- lems are in focus. Thus, human capacity building should be extended into academic development research through shared research and teaching activities between partners involved.

summary: In North-Central Namibia, the area studied in this paper, land use was based on communal own- ership, so that the allocation of land, its inherit- ance and various issues related to land use rights were resolved in consultation with the local kings or headmen and their representatives at the village level. This paper examines changes in property and particu- larly land use rights in North-Central Namibia, paying special reference to gen- der inequality in access to land.

We regard state investments in this paper as in- struments which tell us something crucial about the changing interaction between a state and its territory.

Fig. 9), and does not reflect the abrupt change in soil moisture conditions and soil acidity.

From a rural perspective, however, the crucial issue is what the impacts of such a nationwide path creation proc- ess may be for rural areas, given that it is not en- dogenous from the beginning.

summary: A short excursion into the past For the best understanding of the specificity of Vyborg Karelia development during the Soviet and post-Soviet periods it is necessary to point out the most crucial events in the previous history of the region, events which had influenced the per- ception of the area by St. Petersburgers as well. The new geographic names in Vyborg Karelia belong to three main categories: 1) in memory of soldiers and officers of Soviet Army killed on the Karelian Isthmus during 1941–1944: Simagino (former Joutselkä), Larionovo (Norsjoki), Tsve- lodubovo (Kauko-Lempiälä) etc.; 2) ideologically coloured names: Lake Komsomolskoje (former Kiimajärvi), Lake Pionerskoje (Kuolemajärvi), Leninskoje (Haapala) etc.; and 3) neutral “land- scape” names such as Berezovo (former Pukinnie- mi, from Russian bereza – birch), Lugovoje (Sa- apro, from Russian lug – meadow), Ozerki (Seivästö, from Russian ozerko – little lake) etc.

summary: In contrast to most of the raised bogs, aapa mires are not convex, but usually concave and inclined in profile (Fig. 2D). As aapa mires occur in those parts of Fin- land where snow depth is considerable and the snow melts rapidly in late spring, spring floods that inundate the mire surface are of great signifi- cance for the mires‘ development and vegetation (Ruuhijärvi 1960).

summary: Temper- ature sums and lengths of various thermal seasons have also frequently been used to characterise tree lines (Tuhkanen 1980, 1984, 1993). It has already been suggested that tree growth has accelerated recently, especially at high elevations, due to the increased atmospheric carbon dioxide content (e.g., Cooper et al. 1986), but not all researchers share this view unreservedly.

summary: The disparity in living standards has only been ac- centuated by the fact that Finnish border regions are net recipients of public income transfers, whereas in Russia the mechanisms of interregion- al redistribution have been diminished by the eco- nomic crisis (Alanen & Eskelinen 2000: 63). State borders, in partic- ular, have still been seen to form an essential sym- bolic part of daily life and culture (see, e.g., van Houtum 1998) even to an extent that we are caught in a “territorial trap” – fixation on state- centric thinking (Agnew 1998: 51–52).

summary: The archipelago and its inhabitants and cultural land- scapes had been depicted earlier, of course, but chiefly in Swedish-speaking artistic circles, where- as the question of national landscapes had been very much concerned with the Finnish cultural identity. The ar- eas that had been lost could no longer be held to represent national landscapes and views, and many of the symbolic landscapes of Karelia and Lapland had to be reconstructed within the coun- try’s new boundaries.

summary: In the northern boreal zone, summer temperature is the most important factor influ- encing tree growth (Hustich 1948; Mikola 1950; Briffa et al. 1990; Briffa 1994; Lindholm 1996; Lindholm et al. 1999; Jalkanen & Tuovinen 2001; Mccarroll et al. 2003; Helama et al. 2004; Tuo- vinen 2005), so that periods of low growth in the past are generally interpreted as having had cool summers. However, in addition to the importance of tem- perature, many other environmental factors affect tree growth, mainly through three primary physio- logical processes: photosynthesis, transpiration, and the uptake of nutrients and water.

Shaped by the actor’s positionalities and related knowledge networks, perceptions regarding the quality of forest management practices and technologies used to achieve sustainability differ and thereby shape governance processes.

summary: The interpretation of spatial relations to the resource rich North is in- spired by the works of Löw (2001, 2008) and the geographers Massey (2005) and Cresswell (2004) in terms of understanding how people experience this northern space – exemplified by YNAO and KMAO in this article – as both ‘extreme’ and ‘nor- mal’ at the same time (Eilmsteiner-Saxinger 2013a, 2013b). 84 FENNIA 193: 1 (2015)Gertrude Saxinger At the same time, employment in the petroleum industry is becoming increasingly unpredictable due to the rise in the number of short-term con- tracts in the North, particularly in the construction sector.

summary: However, the means by which local difference orientated policies redefine the national is understudied. This article bridges this gap with a case study analysis of Marseille and Lyon to assess and typologize the ways that difference is deployed in local policy to in- fluence, contest and negotiate the discursive performance and construction of the nation.

summary: Similar to Bell’s (1995) activist approach in chal- lenging the placelessness of geographies of bisex- ualities (also Binnie & Valentine 1999), this paper is an attempt to critically revise conceptualisations of sexual space, and bisexual space in particular. Pioneering work by Clare Hemmings (2002), her book Bisexual spaces, is understood as an excellent starting point for this paper as it successfully opens up questions on sexual spaces, bisexual spaces, and bisexuality.

summary: According to one wilderness tourism entrepreneur there are current- ly 15 enterprises offering snow shoeing tours in Es- tonia, introducing mire landscape to around 5,000 to 10,000 people a year (Rähni 2012). The narrowing of the term’s content in popular usage occurs as well – people often do not describe wet forests as soo although those habitats are mires ac- cording to the landscape ecological definition. Objectives and aims of the article Today the fate of natural mires in Estonia is deter- mined by mainly two different institutional aims: their industrial use and/or conservation.

The kind of nation she is put- ting forward, through the lived performances of migrants, is one which is agency-centred, prag- matic, non-discursive, progressive, emplaced, dynamic and experiential.

summary: Although some scholars may still regard tourism as a service sector issue, a purely econom- ic phenomenon and/or an academically tedious activity based on wealthy people’s voluntary mo- bility and related consumption during their free time, research on tourism geographies since the 1970s has promoted much more pluralist and criti- cal views on the phenomenon and the relationship between tourism and development and tourism and places, for example (see Britton 1982; Hall & Page 2009). In addition, as Chris Gibson (2008: 418) has noted, tourism geography “appears to be on the whole more cosmopolitan” with “its own geography of production and circulation, variegat- ed differently than for other parts of geography.”

Answering the above questions gives a picture of the labour-market dynamics involved in the decline of agricultural employment in Sweden.

The land-use categories of business and commercial development, infrastructure, and housing and public needs are here categorised as conflicting with agriculture land, as new establishments can interfere with the farming that is ongoing.

summary: However, some comments also demonstrate empathy with the plight of urban animals. Drawing upon earlier work on attitudes towards animals (Kellert & Westervelt 1984; Kellert 1993) but also geographical literature, Bjerke and Østdahl (2004) surveyed Norwegian residents’ attitudes towards common urban animals.

summary: The depth of radicalisation among traditional EU political parties is of such magnitude that the problem is not even an ideological contest between the merits of either socialism or liberalism or between conservative and progressive ideologies. Hence, the ‘normalisation-of-the-extreme’ agenda that we are seeing in today’s EU politics is arguably no less than perhaps the most self-harming political movement since the Second World War.

summary: Building on Kirsi Pauliina Kallio’s (2017) editorial on subtle radical moves in academic publishing, my goal here is to offer some further reflections on an area of publishing practices where potential interventions, even small ones, could be made toward creating a more pluralistically international publishing environment – as one modest step toward decolonizing the discipline. Given the dominance of English language publishing in international academic work and the broader geopolitics of knowledge production through which some contexts, approaches, and modes of knowledge are regularly devalued, I suggest that – to the extent that publishing outlets are evaluated or ranked – they should be evaluated and ranked, in part, based on their contribution to a pluralistically international academy.

summary: Contrarily to the historical use of lingua franca as a simplified system of transnational communication that facilitates the pragmatics of economic and cultural exchange, academic English is instead used vernacularly and becomes an excluding barrier.

summary: Ever more assessments and criteria, models and formula are creating a widening disconnection between university management and academic staff, and are indeed reducing the quality of academic research, preventing critical interrogations, critical thought and pedagogy, for fear of not fitting into this narrow model (Gray 2003). A present tragedy of publishing in the academic world is that, as international scholars, we are all increasingly pressured to produce research papers that meet certain externally imposed standards.

Besides collecting and publishing the recordings of environmental sounds (e.g. World Soundscape Project 1973), Schafer (1977) was dedicated to create and develop a series of concepts to address sound qualitatively, most notably the concept of soundscape (originally presented by Southworth 1969) which refers to the set of sounds hearable at a certain location.

summary: What perhaps particularly distinguishes the current moment is the wholesale capitalization of this economy of academic prestige, which has been facilitated through various forms of quantification that all contribute to translating the symbolic prestige of academic publishing into concrete cash-in-hand for individual academics (new positions, publication bonuses, etc.), universities (research evaluation frameworks, grants), and the whole billion-dollar global academic publishing industry dominated by a small number of for-profit enterprises, generally producing perverse profit margins. As noted by Fyfe and colleagues (2017) in a recent paper on the relationship between academic prestige and scientific publishing: “…[I]n Britain in the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, scholarly reputation was still closely correlated with social standing.

For the last few decades, Palestinian national identity has been evolving with continuous alteration that encompasses local political discourse in the Palestinian community.

summary: In many observed cases, the involvement of strong NSAs was rather unbalanced as it repro- duced north-south, urban-rural relations of power, and did not allow local groups to use their own capacities and assets. The current funding mechanisms are not suit- able for local groups and often suffocate commu- nity initiatives.

summary: By the downward trends, increasing demographic isolation, power imbalances and the absence of realistic alternatives for diversified development, the vulnerability has become a characteristic of resource peripheries (Freudenburg 1992). For resource peripheries, the initial boom cycle results from the extraction of natural resources.

summary: This is illuminated, for example, in the way how the rescues are often thought of in opposition to border security, despite the recent trend whereby an increasing integration of these responses within a common emergency frame has become reality (Cuttitta 2014; Pallister- Wilkins 2015). The offers of a strong nation state as a solution for the perceived chaos have resonated well with the consequential public discourse in many EU member states, whereby the original idea of open borders has become effectively shot down (Ahtisaari 2017).

summary: To conclude this discussion over two issues of Fennia, Elisa Pascucci (2018) moves the debate elsewhere, and draws on recent research with aid workers in Jordan and Lebanon – as well as on examples from Greece and Italy – proposing the notion of refugee welcome as care work as a possible way to achieve grounded critical understanding. Importantly, the response offers a number of insights that challenge Eurocentric humanitarian conceptions of welcoming refugees, like the centrality of emotional labour and the emerging South-South geographies of hospitality and aid.

summary: The study of resistance of concrete structures is a good metaphor for social research; and yet, quantitative/ positivist researchers, in their search for “falsifiable generalizations”, often forget about the omnipresence of error, let alone adopt the factors of safety. By casting such doubts, I advocate for a more relaxed (but not less rigorous) approach to social research and its complexity.

summary: Concluding discussion This research set out to explore the importance of the value of forest holdings owned by entrepre- neurs for the economic performance of micro- firms, with a hypothesis that assets stemming from forest ownership benefit firms and provide them with financial stability and resilience to economic fluctuations. Compared to, for instance, entrepreneurs who rely on private housing mortgages as a means to acquire neces- sary capital (Storey 1994; Shane 2003) to self- finance business ventures – which incidentally is the most common financial strategy of entre- preneurs (Shane 2003), presumably particularly in the case of the smallest firms, which rarely rely on external funding (Holmes et al. 2010) – forest owners have additional assets that may be used to this end.

summary: Conceptually, I am concerned with 1) the conflation of positivism and quantitative methods and 2) the binary of quantitative/positivist methods versus qualitative methods. You argue that there are links between quantification (large data sets and sample sizes), generalizations, and theory building – and that practitioners using quantitative methods deny qualitative methods the ability to generalize due to small data sets.

summary: But literary fiction, in its various forms, has always been concerned with counterfactuality – with imagining the not-yet; with juxtaposing different possible worlds and with considering possible futures, from small-scale deliberations about whom to marry (the famous dilemma of Rastignac, in Balzac’s Le Père Goriot [1835]), to momentous changes in world history (such as in Dick’s The Man in the High Castle [1962]). These examples provide but some of the ways in which literature fiction can make us look at possible futures with a new awareness of the situated future lives that will inhabit them.

summary: In- deed, many authors have recently explored how nightlife gentrification involves a certain spatial marginalization of working-class night-time leisure activities in today’s Western cities. Furthermore, I argue that the consumption of this recently promoted vintage nightlife as a new form of social distinction can be also seen as the (re)production strategy of a socially and morally sani- tized nightlife which marginalizes everyone who is seen as inappropriate, or in other words, socially perilous to the city branding of Lisbon.

summary: Emotions silenced, traumas downplayed The current and ongoing silencing of emotion within geographical accounts of field research, identified as a concern by Davidson, Bondi and Smith (2005), can be traced back to two key influences. In particular, universities play a significant role in preparing graduate students for field research through the provision of intellectual support, mentorship, and access to insurance protections.

summary: Border studies as a field of interest Borders have long been one of the most central topics to political geography. However, the focus of border studies has gone through substantial changes as it has developed in relation to the pre- dominant geopolitical models and visions – from studying borders as delimiters of territorial control and ideology towards areal differentiation and lat- er towards more dynamic role of borders as bridg- es rather than barriers.

summary: Yet, I contend the task of researchers who stand in support of young people as leaders on climate action (Hagedorn et al. 2019, 364) as well as those researchers who hold a more detached scientific interest in young climate activists and their work, is to work beyond that framing. In this significant and provocative article, an analysis is provided of the potential – and the need – for empirical work at local and international levels concerning youth climate activism that recognizes the often complex, liminal nature of young political agency and the diverse, intersecting motives that lead young people to demonstrate for action on climate change.

summary: An estimate, which appears to be trustwor- thy, of the population of Sarayaku was provid- ed for the years 1888−1889 by a missionary who travelled widely in the region and record- ed the number of inhabitants of over 20 settle- ments or forest areas, in some of which he even distinguished between ‘infidels’ and ‘Christians’ (Magali 1978: 45). Thus, much of the conclusions reached here may be generalizable for large areas outside the study area itself, although such extrapolation al- ways must be done with great care, considering possible differences in human history as well as in the natural environment.

Arctic Inuit citizenry in the Circumpolar Declaration Articles 1.5–1.8 makes apparent an emerging tale in new sovereignty: that of layered sovereignty.

summary: We welcome further contributions to our Reflections section from anyone willing to participate in this discussion on the neoliberalization of academia, and to reflect upon industrial action at UK universities and the changes to working conditions and knowledge production at universities globally. Such principles resonates with inclusive values in the welfare states, including university democracy and worker rights but are increasingly being regarded as non- competitive, and therefore ignored as universities are thought of as generic economical organizations.

summary: Massey (2005, 141) describes places “temporary constellations”, arguing that places are, in fact, transient due to the amount of changes that take place in the everyday lives of people. Thirdly, translocal place-making is framed by material and symbolic forms of mobility: physical travelling within and between localities across local, regional and national scales, participating in flows and networks (e.g. McKay 2006; Luedicke 2015), imaginaries of personal, societal and political links between several places, and the maintenance of these imaginaries through, for example, subjective choices of cultural expressions and consumptions (e.g. Main & Sandoval 2015).

summary: Based on qualitative analysis, the core focus is on local perceptions, waste management infrastructure and local spatial components that highlight the incompatibility between the current institutionalised planning documents and visions of waste policy in Russia and the geographical realities in the places of materialisation. Hence, empirical data collection engages with local waste policy implementation and translation practices through a rather unstructured and self-unfolding series of observations, conversations and engagements in the case study localities, but also related to the regional waste policy sphere.

summary: Occupying the second position in the world in terms of total cases and deaths, behind only the United States, Brazil is probably close to an unprecedent catastrophe: 'inspired' by examples of inconsistency given by the government itself, many people have gradually started to flock to the streets and even to the beaches, without paying attention to the prescriptions regarding physical distancing and the use of protective masks. No Recourse to Public Funds is a condition applied to many migrants, meaning that a person has no entitlement to welfare benefits, to asylum support or public housing, which puts many people and families at high risk of homelessness and destitution.
