In this essay i present a study on political learning of a minority ethnicity whose political history in the institutional form began in 1993. The ethnicity in question is the Sami’s and in 1993 the Sami Parliament was established. The establishment of the Sami parliament radically changed the preconditions for political work. Sami politics came to be pursued in an organized manner in the form of a public authority and democratically elected units. In these study Sami politician's perceptions of political learning is investigated. Special attention is directed towards individual- as well as organizational and institutional level. The theories used are Vygotsky's sociocultural perspective on learning complemented with a Foucault-inspired discourse analysis. The method used is semi-structured interviews. The results show that learning is essentially perceived to take place on an individual level and that the organizational and institutional level only to some extent supports the individual level of learning
