Synopsis "The Future History of the Arctic (in English)"

Long at the margins of global affairs, the Artic now finds itself on the frontline of issues which will challenge and define our world in the twenty-first century: climate change, energy security and the struggle for the world's resources, the return of great power competition and the remaking of global trade patterns. In The Future History of the Arctic geopolitics expert Charles Emmerson weaves together the history of the region with reportage and personal reflection to reveal a vast and fascinating area, loaded with opportunity and rich in challenges. Travelling from the oil-fields of Prudhoe Bay and the Russian port of Murmansk to the shores of Greenland and the militarized borderlands of northern Norway, he brings the contemporary Arctic to life and explains why what happens there matters to the world. 'A fascinating, personal, and visionary book. Splendid' Professor Lord Nicholas Stern, Author of a Blueprint for a safer planet and the stern review 'An excellent primer to the economic issues of a region so recently and rudely thrust into the geopolitical limelight' Sara Wheeler, Financial Times 'It's rare to find books that treat [The Arctic] as something other than a chilly adventure play-ground or an excuse for reams of purple prose. Thank goodness, then, for Charles Emmerson
