Globalization

Series: 101 Collection

Although part of a broader circumpolar world, North America's Arctic and sub-Arctic borders-and the establishment of new boundaries in the wake of significant, and regionally unique, change-are increasingly relevant in the broader, global world.

Indeed, the Arctic reality has been dramatically reshaped by new territorial configurations and comprehensive land claims; increasing flows of international investment and trade focused upon resource industries and hydrocarbon extraction; the growing importance and role of sub-national entities, organizations, and Indigenous governments; shifting geopolitical interests; and existential challenges created by climate change and environmental security.

This book demonstrates how North America's Arctic borders are being reshaped by globalization even as these borders are adjusting to new internal pressures such as devolution and the rise of sub-national territorial interests.

Reviews for North America's Arctic Borders: A World of Change

"""Andrew Donskov's invaluable work in preparing, academically commenting on, and editing Tolstaya's literary efforts has given us a fabulous opportunity to acquaint ourselves with the work of this surprising woman, Tolstoy's wife, mother to thirteen children, grandmother to twenty-five and--as is now entirely evident--gifted writer.""--Galina Alekseeva ""Senior Researcher, Tolstoy Museum, Yasnaya Polyana"" « Le précieux travail qu'Andrew Donskov a mené dans la préparation, le commentaire et l'édition des oeuvres littéraires de Sofia Tolstoï nous a donné l'occasion fantastique de découvrir le travail de cette femme surprenante qui fut à la fois la femme de Tolstoï, une mère de treize enfants, une grand-mère de vingt-cinq autres et - comme cela est aujourd'hui évident - une écrivaine talentueuse. » --Galina Alekseeva ""Chercheuse senior, Musée Tolstoï, Iasnaïa Poliana"""
