 Northern political economy
We study the connections between power, wealth and well-being. Our common interest is to investigate the politics entailed in different conceptions of Arctic development. While our research focus is the Arctic and its socioeconomic, environmental, political and legal developments, we view these as interlinked with global processes.
Critical Arctic Studies – University of Arctic Thematic Network.
 Our research
Our recent book with contributions from the research group members “Resources, social and cultural sustainabilities in the Arctic" (M. Tennberg, H. Lempinen & S. Pirnes, eds., Routledge 2020) presents well our diverse research. Also, recent publications by our research group members include Hanna Lempinen’s book “Arctic energy and social sustainability” (Palgrave 2018) and a book by Marjo Lindroth and Heidi Sinevaara-Niskanen “Global politics and its violent care of indigeneity: Sequels to colonialism” (Palgrave 2018).
 The research group
The research group is organized as a collaborative network of researchers working in the Arctic Centre, different faculties of the University of Lapland and other universities representing different fields of expertise and stages in research careers.
The group is led by Research Professor Monica Tennberg.
