This chapter demonstrates the dynamics within current Nordic legal cultures; that is the oppositional struggle between ideological and legal forces and their influences in societal development.

Today, Sami law is considerably established not only in Scandinavian case law but also in discourses within legal scholarship and legal politics. The late modern legal paradigm has identified Sami law as a new field of law, which is visible in the legal culture, and the late modern nation state identifies minorities and new hierarchies, and introduces reconciliation as a new conflict resolution method.
