ABOUT THIS BOOK
Climate change and globalization are opening up the Arctic for resource development and exploitation. But what about the views, interests, and needs of the peoples who already live in the region? Featuring essays by both academics and Arctic peoples themselves, this new book covers the social, legal, political, geographical, scientific, environmental, and creative questions related to Arcticness and addresses the exceptional challenges faced by the Arctic region and its local communities.
AUTHOR BIOGRAPHY
Ilan Kelman is reader in risk, resilience and global health at UCL and a researcher at the University of Agder in Norway.
