This report presents new and updated knowledge about Nordic coastal communities and their socio-economic situation. We investigate key structures and value chains in eight coastal communities in Greenland, Iceland, the Faroes, and Norway. The report highlights local variations in the interaction between value chains and local resilience and provides a comparative perspective. The report uncovers new trends and important development characteristics for Nordic coastal communities, with diversification, continued household-based activities and person-specific factors found to be key for success in business life and for resilience at the local level. Our results also call into question some of the challenges and conventional truths facing coastal community development in a period where solutions are being sought for sustainability and the climate challenge.

Denne metodebog er den første, som sætter fokus på samfundsvidenskabelige praksisser i Arktis og Vestnorden. Bidragene i denne bog kommer fra forskere, hvis egen forskningspraksis tager afsæt i Arktis og Vestnordiske universitetsmiljøer. Med kapitlernes talrige metodiske tilgange illustreres det, hvorledes nordlige kontekster og ofte nære lokale forhold har en udpræget betydning for, hvorledes den samfundsvidenskabelige forskning metodisk skal tilvirkes. I bogen forklarer forfatterne, hvorledes de håndterer udfordringer med at skabe en forskningsmæssig kontakt til mindre samfund samtidig med at man skal kunne gå analytisk til arbejdet med at bedrive samfundsvidenskab. Hvordan evaluerer man vigtige samfundsområder som skolesystemet? Hvorledes får man det mest konstruktive samarbejde med en tolk? Kan man bruge fotografier i samfundsforskning? Hvorledes laves der gode surveys og feltarbejder? Disse og mange andre aktuelle metodiske overvejelser og bud på svar finder man i denne metodebog.
Samfundsvidenskabelig praksis – Arktiske perspektiver – består af 16 kapitler, hvor ledende vestnordiske og arktiske samfundsforskere skriver om, feltarbejde, etik, surveys, deltagerorienteret forskning, GIS, brugen af tolkning, evalueringsmetoder, aktionsforskning og lokalsamfundsstudier.
Bogens målgruppe vil være en bred læserskare; særligt studerende, men også forskere og andre fagfolk vil kunne finde bogen relevant.

Greenland and the Faroes are autonomous jurisdictions within the Danish Realm, having undertaken a continuous process of extended self-determination in the post-WWII era. In both jurisdictions there are strong movements of secession and counter-secession, whose respective strengths are largely achieved through external relations. This paper will first provide an introduction to the historical background and the formal relationship between the two jurisdictions and their metropolitan state. We will then extend the two cases with a description of how increased internal autonomy has evolved in a dynamic interaction with changes in international affairs. Whether the two jurisdictions may move towards full secession or new forms of unity is difficult to predict, but external relations keep on pushing at the formal structures and limits of the realm, which we will briefly reflect upon in the final section.
