Digital seminar 31/1: What are the norms and legal concepts in Sami society?
What's new
In a new research project we will, among other things, investigate how we can understand the internal Sami norms. We now invite you to a seminar where we present the background to the project and the approach to investigate the content of the Sámi norm systems, especially regarding Sámi use of land, water and natural resources.
Cultural differences often lead to different views and perceptions of the rules that govern a society. Today, international legal developments emphasize the importance of understanding the rules that govern indigenous peoples' societies and lives, and the Supreme Court has pointed to the importance of such internal Sámi rules in the Girjas judgment regarding the Sámi right to small game hunting and fishing west of the cultivation boundary.
