Description
Britain's renewed interest in the Arctic is driven by pressing concerns about climate change, resources, trade, and national security. This shift has significant implications for the region's environment and geopolitics.
Duncan Depledge examines Britain's contemporary interests in the Arctic, tracing its transformation from an 'Arctic state' to a nation increasingly aware of these changes. He investigates the British government's response to the Arctic's growing importance, focusing on science, defence, and commerce.
This book will be valuable for both academics and practitioners seeking to understand Britain's role in the Arctic today.
