Book chapter (peer-reviewed)abstract
- This article accounts for the history of Swedish state regulations against the Samipeople in terms of numbers, heritage and decision-making. For instance, currentlyit is not the Sami People as a People, that are considered to be Sami. The currentofficial number of Sami often referred to in official documents are based onthose Sami working in the profession of reindeer herding the number of Samiwho owned reindeer at a specific period, around 1965-71. The actual much largernumber of Sami is hidden by State-based regulations and categorizations. This isdue to a century long racist Lap-should-be-Lap policy, aiming at invisibilising and reducing the number of Sami persons, and thereby phasing out the Sami culture.In the article the author describes how performing Sami genealogy research andpublishing the results four times per year in the newsletter (Medlemsnytt)of the Sami association Silbonah Sámisijdda is a resistance practice against this colonialinvisibilisation of the Sami. It is a reclaiming of Sami history and memory. Theauthor also shares some background for understanding from her own family history,and how this history is interlinked with the genealogy and heritage of the Sami ingeneral. Lastly, some reflections on the future of Sami genealogy are discussed.

Book chapter (other academic/artistic)abstract
- Den här artikeln behandlar svenska statens bestämmelser gentemot det samiska folket beträffande antal, arv och beslutsfattande. Ett exempel är att någon folkräkning av samerna aldrig har gjorts. Det officiella antalet samer är baserat på renlängder över renägare för tiden 1965-1971. Detta innebär alltså att de samer som inte arbetar inom rennäringen har blivit utdefinierade från officiell statistik. De räknas inte som samer. Det aktuella mycket högre antalet är dolt i statliga bestämmelser och kategoriseringar. Det härrör sig från en sekellång rasistisk politik, som syftar till att osynliggöra och minska antalet samer och därmed ge ett underlag för att kunna radera den samiska kulturen.I artikeln beskriver författaren hur samisk släktforskning bedrivs och att resultaten publiceras fyra gånger per år i Medlemsnytt, Silbonah Sámesijddas medlemstidning, som en motreaktion i praktiken mot det koloniala osynliggörandet av samerna. Det är ett återtagande av den samiska historien och minne, som författaren genom sin bakgrund har erfarenhet av och kunskap om, och visar hur historien är länkad till släktforskningen och det samiska arvet. Avslutningsvis reflekteras över framtiden i den samiska släktforskningen.Arbete med denna artikel har delvis finansierats via forskningsprojektet "Älvar, motstånd, resiliens: Hållbara framtider i Sápmi", lett av Fil.Dr May-Britt Öhman och finansierat av Formas, 2012-2015.

Re-voicing Sámi resistance against hydropower exploitation in early 20th century: : Erik Olofsson Rim
- 2012
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Erik Abraham Olofsson Rim, 1844-1920, was a Sámi, commonly remembered for allegedly having sold his land and water rights to the State Power Company, Vattenfall, for the first large scale hydropower plant, Porjus – on the Lule River in Sapmi, Sweden. When Erik is mentioned in historical books and PR-brochures about Porjus, his Sámi name “Rim” has most of the time been taken away, as well as his Sámi identity. He is instead referred to as the “old man” of Porjus.At the time when the Vattenfall started showing interest for Porjus, Erik lived with his family off self-subsistence agriculture and from guiding tourists in the area. Erik disapproved of the selling, and claimed he had been deceived by Vattenfall.When the Porjus power station was inaugurated on February 8th, 1915, Erik was invited to the inauguration lunch along with several prominent guests. However, Erik opted to not attend, and to move from Porjus on this very day. In the contemporary media, referred to as the King of Porjus, he was accused of being greedy, doing this silent protest just to get more money out of the deal.So far very little work in regard to Sámi resistance against hydropower exploitations in the early 20th century has been made. It has proved difficult to find examples. The intention of this paper is to revoice Erik’s story, as part of revoicing Sámi resistance against the hydropower exploitations in Sapmi.The study is based on archival documents, contemporary newspaper articles and earlier literature.
