Also settler-colonial theory is relevant to Sweden and Norway and Finland wrt Sami peoples. I haven't read anything by or about Sapmi specfically though, so can't suggest any readings there, but the last four recommendations above are works on the topic wrt other places and more generally. Norway of course also has the oil state aspect, which isnt exactly a politically neutral source of wealth but likely needs no further explanation.
edit: added Cope's book after re-reading and realising i forgot to add it
You need this book which explicitly addresses OP's objections: Riding the Wave: Sweden’s Integration into the Imperialist World System by Torkil Lauesen
