The Prime Minister, Erna Solberg, justified these policies with reference to the rise of new COVID variants and the need to limit visitors to Norway as much as possible. As this approach has severe adverse effects on many people, ... -
A Sporting Nation: Creating Sámi Identity through Sport

This sporting identity has been based on an essentialized past, portraying Sámi culture and ... -

Mesolithic Pyrotechnology: Practices and Perceptions in Early Holocene Coastal Norway
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-09-01)Substantial pyrotechnological structures and large quantities of charcoal are rarely found on Early Holocene sites in coastal Norway. Nevertheless, information on the use of fire and fuel types is available and presented in this article, a survey of sites dating from 10,000 to 8000 uncal BP. Possible fuel types and preferences are discussed and it is argued that most fires would have been small and ... -

Learning island-insensitivity from the input: A corpus analysis of child- And youth-directed text in norwegian
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-09-20)Norwegian allows filler-gap dependencies into relative clauses (RCs) and embedded questions (EQs) – domains that are usually considered islands in other languages. We conducted a corpus study on youth-directed reading material to assess what direct evidence Norwegian children receive for filler-gap dependencies into islands. Results suggest that the input contains examples of filler-gap dependencies ... -

While the political system still defends a collectivist model, economic liberalism is bringing the Vietnamese ... -
SE in Spanish: properties, structures and analyses
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-12-01)This article provides an overview of Spanish SE, covering the main empirical facts, analyses and theoretical issues that it raises, and exploring the prospects to unify all uses –which are over a dozen in the literature– under one same object that keeps its surface properties invariable. We will show that it is almost inescapable to propose that SE is associated to two types of objects, defective ... -

Northern Norway has one of the world’s longest and best-preserved ...
