“This is a lively, well-written and comprehensive collection of essays on a series of interconnected themes, each of which rewards careful reading in its own right, as well as part of a wider narrative. The book also provides a series of new insights into national approaches, as well as a clear-sighted and unflinching treatment of pressing regulatory issues facing the Arctic and the prospective contributions of China, Finland and the EU in this regard. The book is also a valuable test case for the merits of cross-institutional collaboration, allowing scholars from very different legal backgrounds to challenge each other's assumptions, approaches and prevailing legal philosophies. The result is a rigorous and insightful volume of contemporary scholarship – and a hopeful metaphor for future Arctic cooperation.” – Richard Caddell, Cardiff University,
