Description
Summary:This module will explore the multifaceted and complex governing structures of the Arctic region, how these structures relate to one another, and the importance of these structures to the future of the Circumpolar North. The required reading focuses on devolution and local governance structures. We, therefore, balance this with module information on supranational governance structures in the North – those that transcend established national boundaries or spheres of interest. Together, the reading and the module should provide you with a good introduction to the very complex world of Northern governance.
