A Fractured North – Maintaining Connections
Für hervorgehobene Präsentation von Publikationen: featured
The volumes of the “Fractured North” trilogy address research collaborations in Siberia and the Russian North that are now at risk or frozen, and how partnerships might be restored, under the evolving political situation. The first two volumes explored ethical and moral dilemmas of continuing collaborative studies in the “fractured” North and the ramifications of ceasing such collaborations. While many scholars have pivoted their attention to other regions, others have maintained their focus on the Russian North, striving to sustain the circumpolar approach of the past decades. Contributions in this third volume deal with how we might move forward, despite the many fissures in our field. “Moving forward” includes a variety of approaches: adopting new(er) methodologies for carrying out studies from afar (e.g. netnography); establishing new connection hubs at Western institutions; maintaining already established collaborations via joint meetings on “neutral” territory, and more.
We anticipate that these volumes together will provide a record of the reflections, concerns, anguish, and inspirations of over fifty social scientists who chose the Russian North as their locus of research. We also dearly hope that it will serve as a historic account of a period of fracture that will before long heal.
