Description
The Arctic and World Order by Kristina Spohr, Daniel S. Hamilton, and Jason C. Moyer explores the rapidly changing frontier of the Arctic region, highlighting its role in global governance and climate challenges amidst geopolitical competition. As the world's fastest-warming place on earth, the Arctic is a critical indicator of the planet's climate crisis. The "regime" that governs this space has pioneered innovative means of cooperation among often-contentious state and non-state actors. This book delves into the huge political, legal, social, economic, geostrategic, and environmental challenges confronting the Arctic regime, shedding light on what these challenges mean for the future of world order. Scholars and practitioners from diverse backgrounds contribute to this comprehensive analysis, offering insights into the complex issues shaping the Arctic region.
