Kähkönen remained a marginal book in the national debate—a book considered marginal for its theme by the itinerant church teachers called catechists. Esko I. Kähkönen, Katekeetat Suomen Lapissa 200 vuotta (Rovaniemi: Lapin korkeakoulun kasvatustieteellisiä julkaisuja A 4, 1988), passim.

  2. 2.

    The issue was raised in a ‘Suomi 100 seminar’, organised to discuss Finland’s 100 years of independence ‘Saamelaisten historia itsenäisessä Suomessa: politiikka ja kokemukset’ in Inari, Finland, 21 September 2017.
