{"pk":43137,"title":"Transnational American Studies, Ecocritical Narratives, and Global Indigeneity: A Year of Teaching in Norway","subtitle":null,"abstract":"Texas and Norway may appear to be worlds apart—one flat, arid, and  sprawling across the vast US West, the other green, mountainous, and  defined by its waters. Yet they face surprisingly similar challenges  resulting from economies built on the oil industry in a world now  wracked by climate change. This essay assumes that indigenous  sovereignty and social justice issues are inextricable from  environmental concerns, and engages the experience of teaching and  researching indigenous texts and petro-fictions, from Saami novels to  writings about Standing Rock, during a Fulbright year in Norway.","language":"en","license":{"name":"Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives  4.0","short_name":"CC BY-NC-ND 4.0","text":"Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.
