Focusing on the Spmi region of Northern Europe as a point of departure, this book enriches and sharpens the concept of the North. It combines detailed empirical research on the Smi people and their life-worlds with theoretical contributions from leading scholars. The authors consider the European North not only as a geographical site or an object of academic research, but as a particular way of knowing and being, with its own needs, practices, concepts, and imaginings. The North, as an epistemic position, offers its own conceptions of politics, human agency, history, and social relations, which this book studies and describes. The volume challenges us to consider social scientific knowledge, its significance, and the practices of producing it in a new way.

Searching the mysterious core of Kaldoaivi
Helsingin Sanomat, the newspaper with the largest circulation in Nordic countries, published an article in its NYT supplement on September 22nd, 2000, entitled Kaukana kaikesta (Far from Everything). The purpose of the article was to determine the remotest place in Finland and go there to see what it looks like. Journalist Sami Soininen writes that the first task was to define what remotest means and then study maps to see where a place matching such criteria could be found. By remote, he meant a place that was uninhabited, as far from roads or other thoroughfares as possible and accessible only on foot. Studying maps revealed to Soininen that such places in Finland can only be found in Laplands great national parks and wilderness areas, such as the Ksivarsi wilderness area, Lemmenjoki national park and the remotest parts of the Kaldoaivi wilderness area. After a closer examination, he concluded that the remotest place in Finland can only be found in the Kaldoaivi wilderness in Finlands northernmost municipality, Utsjoki, because it is the only one among the above-mentioned areas that is completely located within the territory of the state of Finland. The decision is made. The mysterious core of Kaldoaivi had to be the remotest place in Finland, Soininen writes, and specifies further that the mysterious core is located on the northeast shore of Njallajvri.
