AuthorsBennett, M. and Dodds, K.
Abstract

The book examines how rapid climate change and intensifying geopolitical competition are transforming the Arctic from a remote frozen frontier into a contested global hotspot and international waterway. The authors explore how a warming Arctic—which is heating up four times faster than the global average—is altering ecologies, unearthing Cold War legacies like Soviet nuclear waste, and triggering new great-power interests.
