OverviewGlobalization, climate change, and increased geopolitical competition are having a profound impact on the Arctic, affecting how we understand both sovereignty and security within the region. In Breaking Through, a diverse group of emerging and established scholars examine Arctic sovereignty and security, rarely examined together, and present a theoretically robust study of Arctic sovereignty and security in both historical and contemporary contexts. Throughout the volume, readers will discover fresh perspectives on under-studied dimensions of Arctic sovereignty, including: environmental changes, foreign and security policies, and how Indigenous peoples interact to produce different meanings of sovereignty and security in the Arctic. Drawing on extensive primary and secondary research, Breaking Through offers important and timely conclusions for policymakers, advocates, scholars, and students.

By raising this awkward question and addressing it from different historical, geographic, and disciplinary perspectives, Breaking Through makes a valuable contribution to Arctic scholarship. - Michael Byers, Canada Research Chair in Global Politics and International Law, Department of Political Science, University of British Columbia, and author of International Law and the Arctic If you want to understand the contours of sovereignty and security in the circumpolar Arctic, then look no further. Greaves and Lackenbauer have assembled a distinguished academic cast to consider two fundamental principles: Arctic security starts at home, and making sovereignty secure means listening to and working with the communities who call the Arctic home. - Klaus Dodds, Department of Geography, Royal Holloway, University of London, and co-author of The Arctic: What Everyone Needs to Know Author InformationWilfrid Greaves is an assistant professor of International Relations at the University of Victoria.
