Icebound frontiers of exploitation:Networks for whaling in the Polar regions, 1904-1931
In my researchproject, I have studied the history of Natural resource exploitation in the polar regions. More specifically, I have studied the history of the modern whaling industry in both the Arctic and the antarctic. Previous research have mainly focused on, and explained modern whaling as just a...
