摘要 尽管环极地北部不同地区的接触逐渐加强，但北极地区的性别研究仍然是一个支离破碎的领域——尤其是因为语言障碍。这里介绍的四个案例均来自俄罗斯远北地区，旨在补充北美和北欧国家的性别研究。我们还希望他们能够鼓励在地理和社会科学领域更广泛地使用女权主义方法。在首次概述性别如何成为北极圈研究主题之后，介绍将重点关注特定性别的流动和不动形式。接下来，将讨论殖民和后殖民条件下性别与身份和交叉性的关系。此后，女性主义政治生态学和其他理论方向被描述为研究性别经济的理论方法。这种北极性别研究的背景为本期特刊中四篇论文的简短总结奠定了基础，最后对未来研究方向进行了简短的陈述。特别是交叉性概念被认为是研究性别、本土性和经济差异的有用基础。
ABSTRACT Notwithstanding the gradual intensification of contacts across the different parts of the circumpolar North, research on gender in the Arctic is still a fragmented field – not the least because of language barriers. The four cases presented here, all from the Far North of Russia, are intended to complement research on gender in North America and the Nordic countries. We also hope they will encourage wider use of feminist approaches in geography and social sciences. After a first overview of how gender emerged as a topic of study in the circumpolar North, the introduction will focus on gender-specific forms of mobility and immobility. Next, gender will be discussed in relation to identity and intersectionality under colonial and post-colonial conditions. Thereafter, Feminist Political Ecology and other theoretical directions are portrayed as theoretical approaches to studying gendered economies. Such contextualization of the study of gender in the Arctic prepares the ground for short summaries of the four papers in this special issue, to be concluded by a brief statement about future directions of research. Particularly the concept of intersectionality is favored as a useful basis for examining gender, indigeneity, and economic differences.
