- With the title “Water regulations on life and death in the Lule River: Postcolonial and feminist technoscience perspectives” this article describes parts of my work within my postdoctoral research as well as the current project DAMMED: Security, Risk and Resilience around the Dams of Sub Arctica. (Swedish Research Council 2009–10 & 2010–12). I draw on examples from my study of the Lule River valley in Sápmi (Sweden), displaying voices by local inhabitants – mainly Sámi - on the one hand, and actors within the Swedish hydropower sector, on the other. I discuss the apparent conflicts over the usage of the water courses, currently and historically,between the local inhabitants – and the state powercompany, Vattenfall, and how these conflicts can be read from a context of earlier and ongoing colonization of Sápmi by the Swedish state. In particular I addressthe fatal dangers that local inhabitants face on, along,and below the hydropower plants and reservoirs.
