Part of the McGill-Queen's Native and Northern Series series
Hardback
Description
The Challenge of Arctic Shipping presents a collection of candid essays on the future of Arctic waters.
A number of distinguished contributors address critical issues in Arctic development examining the implications for both policy-making in the North and the impact of that policy on native people.
The intricacies of decision-making in an atmosphere of uncertainty are explored in detail, as is the impact of access to information, influence, and power.
The Challenge of Arctic Shipping also examines activities and events associated with commercial proposals to develop and transport hydrocarbons through environmentally sensitive waters.
The editors observe that the resulting political maneuvering is evidence that new approaches to this and other problems of the North are needed.
