According
to the aims and goals of the International Association of Circumpolar
Socio-Cultural Issues (IACSI), and the interchange of ideas, strategies
and scientific projects since 2001 between scientists from Social Sciences,
Anthropology and Humanities from Finland, Argentina, Iceland, Canada,
Norway and United Kingdom, a new annually published journal is launched.
During
these last years different ideas were interchanged in terms of concrete
aspects of this Journal between the Circumpolar Studies Program of the
Universidad del Salvador (Argentina), the Department of Social Sciences
and Philosophy of the University of Jyväskylä (Finland), the
Thule Institute of the University of Oulu (Finland), the Faculty of
Social Sciences of the University of Iceland (Iceland), and the Foundation
for High Studies on Antarctica and Extreme Environments (FAE, Argentina).
