ARCTIC ENVIRONMENTAL MODERNITIES GEBUNDEN

and environments in the circumpolar global North  foregrounding the Arctic as a critical space
of modernity  where the past  present  and future of the planet's environmental and political
systems are projected and imagined. Investigating the Arctic region as a privileged site of
modernity  this book articulates the globally significant  but often overlooked  junctures
between environmentalism and sustainability  indigenous epistemologies and scientific rhetoric
and decolonization strategies and governmentality. With international expertise made easily
accessible  readers can observe and understand the rise and conflicted status of Arctic
modernities  from the nineteenth century polar explorer era to the present day of anthropogenic
climate change.
