Shipping in Arctic Waters
The most comprehensive and richest study undertaken so far of the factors and conditions that will determine the scope and range of shipping and shipping activities in Arctic waters now and in the future. Furthermore, it is the first study comparing the three Arctic transportation corridors, covering a variety of interacting and interdependent factors such as: - geopolitics, military affairs, global warming, sea ice melting, international economic trends, resources, competing modes of transportation, environmental challenges, logistics, ocean law and regulations, corporate governance, jurisdictional matters and rights of indigenous peoples, arctic cruise tourism and marine insurance.
Science Without Boundaries
Annotation Science without Boundaries discusses the many issues involved in going beyond disciplinary research practices in science, politics and society, and addresses the complexities of their interface. Governments and politicians are increasingly calling upon the scientific community to deal with global challenges such as climate change, poverty, international governance, peace-making et cetera. These are calls for interdisciplinary research - calls to deal with the interaction of parts in complex systems. The book addresses questions like these: -Does interdisciplinary research fit into the overall disciplinary organization of the sciences? -Does interdisciplinary research meet the high scientific standards of the research community? -How does the science community adopt to changing circumstances? -How responsive is the science community to social and political needs? -To what extent do governments intervene to influence science? -What pattern of interaction exists between politics, society and research? Polar research is used to show how politics may intermingle with science to safeguard national interests in times of dramatic international change.

Liquid Institutionalization at Sea
This book presents an innovative theory of liquid institutionalization at sea and explores the building blocks of this theory focusing in particular on institutionalization, blue governance arrangements, reflexivity and power. The book opens with an overview of stability and change in new institutional theory before moving on to discuss liquid institutionalization in more detail. The author applies this approach to three different cases: Arctic shipping; deep seabed mining; and transboundary regionalization in Europe. For each of these cases the book describes the emerging blue governance arrangements, the type of liquid institutionalization and the consequences this has for power and reflexivity.
Global Challenges in the Arctic Region
Bringing together interconnected discussions to make explicit the complexity of the Arctic region, this book offers a legal discussion of the ongoing territorial disputes and challenges in order to frame their impact into the viability of different governance strategies that are available at the national, regional and international level. One of the intrinsic features of the region is the difficulty in the determination of boundaries, responsibilities and interests. Against this background, sovereignty issues are intertwined with environmental and geopolitical issues that ultimately affect global strategic balances and international trade and, at the same time, influence national approaches ...
Jokke & Valentinerne
FRELST! FRA 1991 er Jokke & Valentinernes fjerde og mestselgende album. Plata er etter forfatterens mening også Valentinernes mesterverk, og et av de aller beste norske rockalbumene fra denne gullalderen, sydende av rock, pop, gospel, reggae, indie og viser. Bråkjekt og sårbart, skråsikkert og tvilende, selvopplevd og drømmende, med udødelige klassikere som «Aftenbønn», «Tempo» og «Her kommer vinteren». Plata mottok Spellemannsprisen i klassen for rock under en uforglemmelig overrekkelse i 1992. Anders Giæver (f. 1961) er journalist i VG. Han startet som musikkjournalist i Nye Takter midt på åttitallet og skrev mye om Jokke & Valentinerne fra det første albumet Alt kan repareres i 1986 og frem til og med det fjerde albumet Frelst!. Som elev ved Forsøksgymnaset i Oslo på slutten av 1970-tallet kjente han Joachim Nielsen, May-Irene Aasen og mange av personen i miljøet rundt dem, som på forskjellige måter bidro til bandet og universet Valentinerne skapte.
