## About this book

Arctic State Identity, Volume 1, explores the complexities of national representation within the eight recognized Arctic states. This academic work in politics and social sciences examines whether a distinct Arctic state identity exists and how it influences the professionals tasked with representing their nations. By analyzing documents and discourses, the text provides a detailed look at the intersection of human geography and international and world politics.

The author focuses on state personnel from Canada, Iceland, and Norway to illustrate how these identities are shaped by geography and time. This study in anthropology and politics and government presents a peopled view of geopolitics, framing state identity as a relational and contextual process. By focusing on the individuals who manage these territories, Arctic State Identity, Volume 1, offers a new framework for understanding the daily realities of Arctic geopolitics.
