Arctic Governance in a Changing World

Durfee and Johnstone provide a genuinely interdisciplinary account of the Arctic today. Ideal reading for newcomers seeking an accessible introduction to contemporary Arctic governance as well as for established scholars looking for thought-provoking analysis and discussion. -- Timo Koivurova, University of Lapland
Durfee and Johnstone have produced a text that takes seriously the complexities and nuances that make the Arctic so crucial in global affairs and so interesting for academic study. If you want to understand Arctic governance—or, indeed, key aspects of international relations and international law more generally—this is the book. -- Matthew Hoffman, Professor of Political Science, University of Toronto and Co-Director of the Environmental Governance Lab at the Munk School of Global Affairs and Public Policy
This excellent book provides international and legal perspectives on Arctic issues ranging from security to economics, resources and trade, shipping and the law of the sea, human rights, social impacts, and climate change. It is indispensable for Arctic scholars and students, particularly in the fields on international relations and law. -- Tony Penikett, author of Hunting the Northern Character
