the European High North from diverse perspectives. It compares
views of the changing political ecology of a fragile region shaped
by climatic and cultural factors. In exploring the mutual relations
between new developments in Arctic travel narratives and tourism
practices. Green Ice: Tourism Ecologies in the European High North
pays particular attention to the changing discourses that produce,
and are in turn produced by, encounters between contemporary Arctic
peoples and territories. Questions of gender and nationality are
considered alongside a comparison of texts and practices in
different languages, examining the politics of language and its
significant role in tourism. This title pays attention to the
changing symbolic value of Arctic discourses in environmental
movements, in order to consider the close connections between
global forms of environmentalist discourse and action and local
cultural responses. An engaging and timely work, this book will be
of great interest to scholars of Geography, Anthropology, and
Arctic Tourism.
