Against the backdrop of climate change and tectonic political shifts in world politics, this handbook provides an overview of the most crucial geopolitical and security related issues in the Arctic. It discusses established shareholder's policies in the Arctic – those of Russia, Canada, the USA, Denmark, and Norway – as well as the politics and interests of other significant or future stakeholders, including China and India. Furthermore, it explains the economic situation and the legal framework that governs the Arctic, and the claims that Arctic states have made in order to expand their territories and exclusive economic zones.While illustrating the collaborative approach, represented by institutions such as the Arctic council, which has often been described as an exceptional institution in this region, the contributing authors examine potential resource and power conflicts between Arctic nations, due to competing interests. The authors also address topics suchas changing alliances between Arctic nations, new sea lines of communication, technological shifts, and eventually the return to power politics in the area. Written by experts on international security studies and the Arctic, as well as practitioners from government institutions and international organizations, the book provides an invaluable source of information for anyone interested in geopolitical shifts and security issues in the High North.

This book provides a pre-history of Russia's war on Ukraine and Europe’s relations to it, illuminating the deep roots of the EU’s neighbourhood crisis as well as the migration crises the Union created in the last decade. To do so, the book employs a new and innovative framework that allows for a comprehensive, yet nuanced analysis of borders and a more cogent interpretation of their socio-political consequences.Drawing on interdisciplinary scholarship the book analytically examines the key common elements of borderscapes and links them in related arrays to allow for nuanced evaluation of both their particular and cumulative effects, as well as interpretation of their overall consequences, particularly for issues of identities and orders. The book offers a significant conceptual and theoretical advance, providing a transferable conceptualization of borderscapes to guide research, analysis, and interpretation. Drawing on the author’s experience in policy, practice and academia, it also makes a methodological contribution by pushing the boundaries of reflexivity in interpretive International Relations (IR) research. Analyzing three main sites in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE), the book challenges conventional critical wisdom on EU bordering in the Schengen zone, at its external frontiers, and in its Eastern neighborhood. In so doing, it sheds new light on the politics of post-communist transitions as well as the contemporary politics of CEE. It also shows how EU bordering and its relations to identities and orders created great benefits for many Europeans, but also hindered the lives of many others and became self-defeating. This book is a must-read for scholars, students, and policy-makers, interested in a better understanding of Critical Border Studies (CBS) in particular, and International Relations in general. It will also appeal to anyone interested in CEE or wishing to get a deeper understanding of Russia’s warand the fight for Europe’s future.

In this edited volume, the field of peace and conflict studies is reimagined through critical perspectives. By applying post-colonial, feminist, critical normative, post-structuralist, and decolonial approaches, the book charts a new path forward in a time of crisis. Drawing upon the powerful imagery of the Judeo-Christian eschatological imaginaries—the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse (Death, Famine, Conquest, and War) and the Whore of Babylon—the contributors challenge the assumptions, authority, and traditional approaches in peace and conflict studies. These apocalyptic symbols serve as a prism to radically rethink contemporary issues, dismantling the dominance of liberal peacebuilding.The volume's unique framework explores the connections between these eschatological themes and pressing concerns, such as the spatial variations of climate crisis natural disasters, the prevalence of violent armed conflicts, and the breakdown of societal relations inpolarized communities. By doing so, the authors raise critical questions and propose innovative concepts that can more effectively address the challenges of our time.This book offers a timely and necessary critique of the field while presenting alternative frameworks that transcend the Western tradition. It challenges the dichotomy of righteousness and damnation, urging readers to reconsider prevailing paradigms. With its multidisciplinary approach and engaging perspectives, this volume provides a valuable resource for scholars and students seeking to navigate the complex landscape of peace and conflict studies in the 21st century.
