This book explores the growing interests of China in the Arctic and
examines the nature of its interests and motivations in maintaining
its involvement and presence in the region. The new geopolitical
landscape of the Arctic today is a significant departure from the
great power politics that existed in the region during the Cold War
era. Apart from traditional Arctic states, more and more
international organizations and non-Arctic states are showing an
increased interest in this region, not least China. Many have
attempted to interpret China's intention in moving to the high
north and this book aims to add to the existing literature from
three approaches: China's participation in the international
institutions, China's relationships with the Arctic stakeholders
and China's sectoral engagement in the Arctic. In taking a
three-dimensional approach to the analysis, the author builds a
comprehensive picture of China's interests and activities in the
Arctic, not only from the perspective of China but also from the
viewpoint of other Arctic states (Russia, Canada, the U.S., Norway,
Sweden, Denmark, Finland and Iceland). One of the first books in
English to cover the subject since the release of China's Arctic
policy white paper in January 2018, this analysis will be of
interest to academics, students of Arctic studies, maritime law and
international law, as well as policy makers in Arctic and
non-Arctic states.
