Klaus Dodds
The Fight for the Future of the Arctic
Professor of geopolitics and faculty Dean at Middlesex University, Klaus Dodds examines the state of the Arctic today, showing how the region is becoming a space of experimentation for everything from Indigenous governance to subsea technologies.
Growing geopolitical competition is accompanying environmental disruption. Countries including Russia, China, and the United States are investing in the Arctic and consolidating their interests in strategic access, resource exploitation, and alliance-building.
Consequences are global—from rising sea levels to tensions between great powers determined to protect their territory and resources, and the well-being of Indigenous Peoples who have fought for centuries for rights and recognition.
