Summary

"Globalization, climate change, and increased geopolitical competition are having a profound impact on the Arctic, affecting the ways we understand both sovereignty and security within the region. Further clouding our understanding is the fact that Arctic sovereignty and security are rarely, if ever, examined together. In Breaking Through, a diverse group of emerging and established scholars comes together to present theoretically robust and empirically grounded analyses of Arctic sovereignty and security in both historical and contemporary contexts. Throughout the volume, readers will discover insights from across the social sciences and fresh perspectives on under-studied dimensions of, for instance, how environmental changes, foreign and security policies, and Indigenous peoples interact to produce different meanings of sovereignty and security in the Arctic. Drawing on extensive primary and secondary research, Breaking Through offers important and timely conclusions for policymakers, advocates, scholars, and students."--
