Contemporary Geopolitics of the Polar Regions SAMPLE SLIDES Klaus Dodds ‘Core’ Course

Frozen Planet Why do the Polar Regions matter? Environmental – links to ‘planet earth’ Resource potential – oil, gas, timber, minerals, fish Inhabited (human and non-human populations) Strategic/military – access, shipping lanes, air space Sovereignty and sovereign rights

Who owns the Arctic?

Cold War and Polar Regions Strategic spaces and geopolitics of proximity Arctic and Antarctic as ‘testing grounds’ Military, polar science and grand strategy Populating the Arctic – human security?

Submarines, surveying and spying

Frontier Nationalism Frontier discourses/practices Russia and the Arctic – Conquering Nature Australia and the Australian polar frontier Everyday geopolitics and polar nationalism/national security

An independent Greenland?

Polar Regions and Global Commons How does the international community address areas of the earth such as Antarctica and potentially the central Arctic Ocean? What role do property rights, international regimes, national security, technology and regional co-operation play in regulating the Antarctic and oceans? Can securitization help avoid the ‘tragedy of the commons’?
