New Book: "The Arctic Großraum " Geopolitics and the High North by Christopher R Rossi

The Arctic Großraum  

Geopolitics and the High North

Christopher R Rossi

How should the Arctic be viewed in the 21st century? In this book, a leading commentator assesses the competing players for the Arctic, looking at broad questions of governance and security.

The author challenges the view that the Arctic is a passive space which is the focus of competitive advances from superpowers, arguing that it is more correctly understood as a dynamic pluriverse. Drawing on international law, international relations and diplomacy, this is an important re-assessment of the Arctic and its position in geo-politics.

Christopher R Rossi is Professor at the Arctic University of Norway.
