Rezensionen

'Geir Hønneland once again shows in this book his unique capability of providing insight into highly complex contexts by providing an analysis that is rooted in his personal experiences. [...] It goes without saying that Arctic politics, the law of the sea and Russian identity will serve as a work of reference in order to [...] understand Russian identity and politics.'
