T4-2. Natural resource exploration and utilisation
Proposed focus:
The session will explore the tension between the notion of freedom of access to the resources of the polar areas, and the networks of private capital and international political and legal regimes that control and sustain this notion of freedom. Furthermore, the tensions of different security perspectives in oil and gas exploration will be discussed.
Session in theme: Theme 4. Human dimensions of change: Health, society and resources
