“…It has been argued that the Russian approach to the Arctic stands separate from the broader context of Moscow's relations with the West 56 . In fact, despite the presence of both conflict-mitigating and conflict-aggra- vating elements vis-à-vis NATO countries in the region, Russia retains a realist approach to international relations, and the Kremlin's foreign policy is based more on interests than principles; consequently, Russia has shown a considerable capacity to cooperate in some spheres with its adversaries 57 .…”

Il presente lavoro si propone di offrire una visione completa delle principali questioni legate ai cambiamenti geopolitici nella regione Artica, insieme ad una panoramica della letteratura scientifica riguardante tali problematiche. Dopo un’analisi storica, la ricerca si focalizza sull’evoluzione della sicurezza artica, esaminando la presunta militarizzazione e l’impatto del cambiamento climatico. Successivamente, si esplorano le principali potenze coinvolte ed i loro interessi e strategie nella regione. Infine, ci si concentra sulle imprese economiche e sul multilateralismo nella zona, entrambi influenzati da eventi recenti e cambiamenti climatici.

“…The infrastructure investments that accompany military installations, now sometimes converted to perform emergency and search and rescue functions, have contributed to urban development. The revival of tensions between Russia and NATO countries in the past decade has been a push factor for Canada, Alaska, and, above all, Russia to reinvest in their Arctic military infrastructure, such as border guard bases (Flake, 2017).…”

The 2014 Arctic Human Development Report identified “Arctic settlements, cities, and communities” as one of the main gaps in knowledge of the region. This article looks at circumpolar urbanisation trends. It dissociates three historical waves of Arctic urbanisation: from the sixteenth century to the early twentieth century (the “colonial” wave), from the 1920s to the 1980s in the specific case of the Soviet urbanisation of the Arctic (the “Soviet” wave), and from the 1960s−70s to the present as a circumpolar trend (the “globalized” wave). It then discusses the three drivers of the latest urbanisation wave (resources, militarisation, and public services) and the prospects for Arctic cities’ sustainability in the near future.
