This book discusses issues of geoecological (GER) and geopolitical
(GPR) risks due to hydrocarbon development of the Arctic. The
authors explain the ethical and philosophical foundations of
understanding environmental equity and justice in relation to the
development of Arctic natural resources and consider various
approaches to the moral aspects of making global management
decisions in the field of environmental protection and
environmental safety. Special attention is paid to analysis of
modern geopolitical and geostrategic challenges to the development
of the Arctic region. The monograph identifies the key geopolitical
factors affecting the sustainable development of the Arctic and
analyzes the similarities and differences in the geostrategic
positions of the five Arctic states. The authors reveal the need to
consider geopolitical challenges in the process of GER analysis for
oil and gas development in the Arctic region. The book explores the
intersection of the strategic interests for a number of states and
describes Russia's inability to ensure environmental safety in the
development of Arctic deposits. The book analyzes in detail each
type of GER with an emphasis on their potential to lead to
additional opportunities and threats, and assesses environmental
rating as an indicator of the GER management process of Russian oil
and gas companies operating in the Arctic. Although the main focus
is on the Russian part of this region, many arguments and
conclusions are quite applicable to the entire Arctic region. The
consideration of geoecological and geopolitical aspects of the
development of Arctic resources with the example of Russian oil and
gas companies sheds light on the entire Arctic region, taking into
account the interests of all other national and international
companies involved in GER and GPR there.
