The Sa´mi School System in Norway and International Cooperation

Abstract: This article discusses recent developments in Norway, where a separate curriculum for the primary and lower secondary schools in the indigenous Sámi areas has been introduced, and a part of the jurisdiction over the school system there has been transferred from the government to the Sámi Parliament. In particular, the increasing articulation of minority rights, and a related desire for autonomy, from national minority groups and indigenous peoples the world over, provide an important backdrop and crucial frame… Show more

“…The latter Act saw the formal promotion of the language within the Sámi Parliament, the courts of law, and all levels of education (see Corson 1995; Todal 1999).

Lo anterior se da en acoplamiento con el sistema judicial que otorga legalidad a la nueva configuración a través de leyes ad hoc y la Constitución.…”

“…Se ha contenido así, el grave proceso de desplazamiento que enfrentó la lengua desde inicios del siglo XX. En efecto, esta se ha expandido desde el ámbito exclusivamente familiar al que se vio confinada en la fase más acentuada de desplazamiento, hacia diversas funciones como la administración pública, educación, medios de comunicación, música y literatura (Aikio-Puoskari, 2018;Markelin y Husband, 2013;Todal, 2003).…”
