This book documents how the Arctic region has been represented in
the media: exploring how the media has framed the Arctic and
whether this has an impact on governmental decision-making and
public preferences. The Arctic region faces profound
transformations, due to global warming, spurring intense debates
about economic growth, environmental protection, and socio-cultural
development. At the same time, most of humanity will never come
face-to-face with the realities of the region: the media represents
our only opportunity to learn about what this evolving region
stands for. Recognizing that media coverage will tend to focus on
specific events and relay specific messages, this book scrutinizes
the nature of these messages to figure out how the Arctic region is
presented by different media outlets. Studying different types of
media, Landriault conducts an analysis of 628 newspaper articles,
110 televised reports, 9 magazine articles, and 404 tweets to
provide the first systematic and rigorous study of Arctic media
representations. This book will interest scholars, practitioners,
and students in Arctic studies, critical geography, political
science, and communication studies.
