Much has been written about this treaty and its negotiation, with the anniversaryof its signing recognized in a variety of ways.1 The Antarctic Treaty is aremarkable instrument. The treaty, established in the Cold War, and building onunprecedented collaboration between states in the International Geophysical Year(IGY) of 195758, is noteworthy in a number of aspects. The treaty addressed themajor elements of the Antarctic Problem: differing attitudes to territorial claims andthe potential conflict over the overlapping claims of Chile, Argentina and the UnitedKingdom in the Antarctic Peninsula.
