Produktbeschreibung

Energy security will remain a challenge in the decades to come, and whereas global warming is opening up access to offshore hydrocarbon resources in the Arctic Ocean, civil society and the scientific community are questioning the opportunities to drill in the Arctic marine areas. This book examines the current governance of such extractive activities and their effects.
