Author Biography
Dirk Gindt is Professor of Theatre Studies at Stockholm University. His current research studies the history of Sámi performance in the Swedish part of Sápmi, with an emphasis of the decolonial labour of the involved artists, and charts the struggles to inaugurate a National Sámi Theatre in Sweden. The project adheres to ethical research guidelines and protocols as formulated by the Sámi Parliament of Sweden (Sámediggi) and is conducted in close dialogue and collaboration with Giron Sámi Teáhter.
