Arctic Politics, the Law of the Sea and Russian Identity cover

This book analyses the Russian opposition to the 2010 Barents Sea delimitation agreement in light of both the Law of the Sea and Russian identity, arguing that the agreement's critics and proponents inscribe themselves into different Russian narratives about Russia's rightful place in the world.

'Geir Hønneland once again shows in this book his unique capability of providing insight into highly complex contexts by providing an analysis that is rooted in his personal experiences. [...] It goes without saying that Arctic politics, the law of the sea and Russian identity will serve as a work of reference in order to [...] understand Russian identity and politics.'
