The Arctic is one of the world's regions most affected by cultural,
socio-economic, environmental, and climatic changes. Over the last
two decades, scholars, policymakers, extractive industries,
governments, intergovernmental forums, and non-governmental
organizations have turned their attention to the Arctic, its
peoples, resources, and to the challenges and benefits of impending
transformations. Arctic sustainability is an issue of increasing
concern as well as the resilience and adaptation of Arctic
societies to changing conditions. This book offers key insights
into the history, current state of knowledge and the future of
sustainability, and sustainable development research in the Arctic.
Written by an international, interdisciplinary team of experts, it
presents a comprehensive progress report on Arctic sustainability
research. It identifies key knowledge gaps and provides salient
recommendations for prioritizing research in the next decade.
Arctic Sustainability Research will appeal to researchers,
academics, and policymakers interested in sustainability science
and the practices of sustainable development, as well as those
working in polar studies, climate change, political geography, and
the history of science.
