Arctic Legal Regime The Arctic region is a changing part of the world. Due to changing climate and shrinking area of ice, the opinions of Arctic countries are also changing. Previously the Arctic was seen as a frozen desert, but now it is seen as area of new opportunities. It is now possible to use the ocean for digging resources and utilising living resources, navigating through newly found maritime passages, therefore saving time and money when transporting products overseas. These changing conditions are also an important push to view Arctic legal regime in a new way and to improve it in order to avoid environmental catastrophes or geopolitical conflicts. The main goal of this research is to analyze the existing Arctic legal regime and to ascertain in what direction are the regulations going. This research also aims to answer which fields of regime raise the most problems and where it is mandatory to create new standards. The analysis is divided into three main fields of regime, that are most affected by the changing conditions. The first is maritime delimitation - examination of methods used for this process and the main points of existing or future conflicts.
