Despite many predictions to the contrary, the Arctic has emerged
today as a zone of cooperation. At the core of regional stability
and security is an emerging architecture of cooperation focused on
the Arctic Council. This new order is based not on military
strength or a scramble to control resources, but on the
multilateral pursuit of common interests. This book focuses on
understanding and explaining the emergence of cooperation in the
Arctic through an exploration by leading scholars and experts on
the region of a key set of interlinked questions. What constitutes
the current form of Arctic governance? What explains the emergence
of this form of governance in the Arctic? Which are the emerging
dynamics and actors that affect regional governance today? At a
time when many regions of the world are facing growing
confrontation and even conflict, the authors consider whether the
experience of fashioning multilateral, cooperative and peaceful
governance in the Arctic offers lessons to other parts of the
world? Looking ahead, the volume is designed to explore the
sustainability of current governance trends in the Arctic. To what
extent is cooperation in the Arctic the result of issues specific
to the region today? Are current relationships and institutions
durable in the light of emerging competition and even confrontation
between key Arctic players elsewhere in the world? What steps might
be taken to consolidate cooperation as the central political and
security dynamic in the Arctic?
