ReviewsAndrew Donskov's invaluable work in preparing, academically commenting on, and editing Tolstaya's literary efforts has given us a fabulous opportunity to acquaint ourselves with the work of this surprising woman, Tolstoy's wife, mother to thirteen children, grandmother to twenty-five and--as is now entirely evident--gifted writer.

Edition DescriptionNew Edition
SynopsisThis book examines North America's Arctic and sub-Arctic borders and their changing relevance in a global world. Its point is that North America's Arctic borders are being dramatically reshaped by globalization in various forms, at the same time that they are adjusting to new internal pressures., Although part of a broader circumpolar world, North America's Arctic and sub-Arctic borders--and the establishment of new boundaries in the wake of significant, and regionally unique, change--are increasingly relevant in the broader, global world. Indeed, the Arctic reality has been dramatically reshaped by new territorial configurations and comprehensive land claims; increasing flows of international investment and trade focused upon resource industries and hydrocarbon extraction; the growing importance and role of sub-national entities, organizations, and Indigenous governments; shifting geopolitical interests; and existential challenges created by climate change and environmental security. This book demonstrates how North America's Arctic borders are being reshaped by globalization even as these borders are adjusting to new internal pressures such as devolution and the rise of sub-national territorial interests., Bien qu'elles fassent partie d'un monde circumpolaire plus vaste, les frontières arctiques et subarctiques de l'Amérique du Nord -- et l'instauration de nouvelles frontières dans la vague d'importants changements, uniques sur le plan régional -- sont de plus en plus pertinentes dans un monde global plus vaste. En effet, la réalité de l'Arctique a été remodelée dramatiquement par de nouvelles configurations territoriales et des réclamations terrestres générales ; par des flots croissants d'investissements internationaux et de commerce centrés sur l'exploitation des ressources et l'extraction d'hydrocarbure ; par l'importance croissante du rôle des entités et des organisations infranationales et des gouvernements autochtones ; par l'évolution des intérêts géopolitiques ; et par les défis existentiels engendrés par les changements climatiques et la sécurité environnementale. Ce livre démontre que les frontières de l'Arctique en Amérique du Nord sont remodelées par la globalisation même si elles s'adaptent à de nouvelles pressions internes telles que la décentralisation et la croissance des intérêts territoriaux infranationaux.
