| Summary: | Arctic geopolitics involve a number of unique and complicated factors. Not only are larger historical dynamics at play, but polic-makers are also struggling with new technological advancements and their impact on day-to-day interactions that shape policy. This paper works towards a more predictive theory for Arctic Geopolitics by applying Edgar Schein’s Model of Organizational Culture and Leadership to US and Russian national security bodies. By doing so, the paper argues that national security professionals can better understand themselves and their foreign counterparts, and that knowledge will help them to strategize and problem solve in the years ahead |
