Interest in Arctic politics is on the rise. While recent accounts
of the topic place much emphasis on climate change or a new
geopolitics of the region, the history of the Inuit Circumpolar
Council (ICC) and Arctic politics reaches back much further in
time. Drawing out the complex relationship between domestic,
Arctic, international and transnational Inuit politics, this book
is the first in-depth account of the political history of the ICC.
It recognises the politics of Inuit and the Arctic as longstanding
and intricate elements of international relations. Beginning with
European exploration of the region and concluding with recent
debates over ownership of the Arctic, the book unfolds the history
of a polity that has overcome colonization and attempted
assimilation to emerge as a political actor which has influenced
both Artic and global governance. This book will be of strong
interest to students and scholars of Arctic politics, indigenous
affairs, IR theory and environmental politics.
