Abstract

Abstract This paper examines the production of Arctic governance expertise, understood here as the specialised knowledge through which international cooperation is regulated in the region. Instead of presuming that such expertise is created primarily in the capitals of Arctic states, I ask a more open-ended question: where specifically does that process take place? I argue that Arctic governance expertise increasingly operates in a transnational and networked fashion: an array of think tanks, foundations and events like conferences are as important as the obvious places like foreign ministries and universities. It is a quasi-diplomatic social field characterised by blurry boundaries between different states, professions and institutional settings: between government and academia, legal and political fields, public and private sectors. The paper foregrounds that field of expertise as an object of study.

在群岛和浮冰之间:北极治理的专业知识
摘要本文考察了北极治理专业知识的产生,在这里被理解为规范该地区国际合作的专业知识。我没有假设这种专业知识主要在北极国家的首都创造,而是提出了一个更开放的问题:这一过程具体在哪里发生?我认为,北极治理专业知识越来越多地以跨国和网络化的方式运作:一系列智库、基金会和会议等活动与外交部和大学等显而易见的地方一样重要。这是一个准外交的社会领域,其特点是不同国家、职业和机构环境之间的界限模糊:政府与学术界、法律与政治领域、公共与私营部门之间。这篇论文将该专业领域作为研究对象。
