      abstract = {This book is a pioneering effort in critical Arctic  studies. The contributions identify and investigate some of  the blind spots in human development in the Arctic that  research in the social sciences had yet to broach. To this  end, the authors tap a variety of critical approaches in  fields spanning aesthetics, affect theory, biopolitics,  critical geopolitics, Indigenous archaeology,  intersectionality, legal anthropology, moral economy,  narrative studies, neoliberal governmentality, queer  studies and socio-legal studies. The chapters probe topics  such as representations of the Arctic in contemporary art,  the role of affects in postcolonial Greenland, Canadas  Arctic policies and Chinas engagement with the Arctic. The  book provides a rich knowledge base for researchers in  Arctic social sciences and offers an absorbing textbook for  students interested in Arctic issues. Marjo Lindroth is  Researcher in the Arctic Centre at the University of  Lapland, Finland. Her research critically investigates the  intersections between power, rights and indigeneity in  international politics. Heidi Sinevaara-Niskanen is  Researcher in Gender Studies at the University of Lapland,  Finland. Her critical research addresses the problematics  of development, power and social sustainability, with  particular reference to Arctic politics. Monica Tennberg is  Research Professor at the Arctic Centre, University of  Lapland, Finland, where she leads the Northern Political  Economy research group and coordinates the UArctic thematic  network on Critical Arctic Studies (CAS).},
