This timely book supplements well-established Euro-Atlantic perspectives on the Arctic by offering fresh insights into emerging issues and opportunities in the region through the application of a North Pacific lens. The book brings together an array of perspectives including voices from China Russia and the United States along with the voices of Indigenous peoples and other Arctic residents. The result is a multidimensional assessment of the circumstances of the Arctic in increasingly turbulent times and an examination of opportunities for peaceful competition even under conditions of increased tension.<p><br /><br />To think constructively about the treatment of Arctic issues during the 2020s and beyond the authors argue that we must pay increased attention to the coupling of the Arctic with a range of processes playing out on a global scale. With chapters covering key topics such as the geopolitical situation economic development environmental challenges science-governance engagement and community wellbeing this book sets out a distinctive perspective on the changing role of the Arctic in the “new†global order.</p><p> <br /><br />The book is a valuable resource for environmental specialists those concerned with the role of regions in global affairs academics and students looking for an alternative Arctic narrative. Offering new insights on global institutionalized cooperation this book will also interest policymakers and practitioners specializing in environmental politics and international relations.</p><p></p> hardcover
