Indigenous Religion(s) in Sapmi : Reclaiming Sacred Grounds, Paperback / softback Book

Indigenous Religion(s) in Sapmi : Reclaiming Sacred Grounds Paperback / softback

Part of the Vitality of Indigenous Religions series

Paperback / softback

Description

Indigenous religion(s) are afterlives of a particular sort, shaped by globalising discourses on what counts as an indigenous religion on the one hand and the continued presence of local traditions on the other.

Focusing on the Norwegian side of Sápmi since the 1970s, this book explores the reclaiming of ancestral pasts and notions of a specifically Sámi religion.

It connects religion, identity and nation-building, and takes seriously the indigenous turn as well as geographical and generational distinctions.

Focal themes include protective activism and case studies from the art and culture domain, both of which are considered vital to the making of indigenous afterlives in indigenous formats.

This volume will be of great interest to scholars of Global Indigenous studies, Sámi cultural studies and politics, Ethnicity and emergence of new identities, Anthropology, Studies in religion, and folklore studies.
