It considers how political interest in the Arctic has been growing rapidly in the international community as states stake their claim to areas of the continental shelf in the Arctic Ocean, and focuses on Russia?s actions, as the Arctic state with the longest shoreline and the only one outside NATO. The author argues that among the Western countries, Norway has the most extensive experience in tackling Russia in the Arctic, and the neighbourhood with the Russian Bear invariably shapes foreign policy, notably in matters of security, and how foreign policy concerns are intertwined with economic motives, be that hopes of access to the big Russian market or to the oil and gas fields on the Russian Arctic shelf. To achieve the combined goal of security and business, the Norwegian Government has regularly orchestrated ?Arctic waves? to direct the attention of local, national and international politicians and businesses to the alleged opportunities of the North. In this book, the author takes us through ?the Great Barents Awakening? of the 1990s, ?the Great High North Enchantment? of the early 2000s and recent years? ?Arctic wave? in Norwegian foreign policy. . 606 $aWorld history 606 $aInternational relations 606 $aClimate change 606 $aWorld History, Global and Transnational History$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/719000 606 $aForeign Policy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912040 606 $aClimate Change Management and Policy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/314000 615 0$aWorld history. 615 0$aInternational relations. 615 0$aClimate change. 615 14$aWorld History, Global and Transnational History. 615 24$aForeign Policy. 615 24$aClimate Change Management and Policy. 676 $a820.8 686 $a08.04$2EP-CLASS 686 $a08.32.24.08$2EP-CLASS 700 $aHønneland$b Geir$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0800771 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254773103321 996 $aArctic Euphoria and International High North Politics$92035813 997 $aUNINA
