International law and politics in U.S. policymaking: the United States and the svalbard dispute / Pedersen, Torbjorn   Journal Article
Pedersen, Torbjorn Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2011.
Summary/Abstract This article explains the position(s) of the United States in the maritime dispute adjacent to Svalbard. While the United States has regarded Norway's exclusive claim to the natural resources outside Svalbard as everything from "wishful thinking" to legally plausible, Washington maintains that it may have rights under the 1920 Svalbard Treaty to exploit the maritime zones adjacent to the archipelago. The U.S. reservation is the result of assessments and reassessments of legal considerations as well as national interests.

Svalbard archipelago in Russian security policy: overcoming the legacy of fear - or reproducing it? / Atland, Kristian; Pedersen, Torbjorn   Journal Article
Atland, Kristian Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2008.
Summary/Abstract Drawing on the constructivist concept of 'securitisation', this article analyses Russia's perceptions of, and responses to, Norway's Svalbard policy in the 1990s and 2000s. The analysis focuses on three policy issues which have figured prominently on Russia's arctic security agenda in recent years: (1) the establishment and use of civilian radars and satellite ground stations on the archipelago, (2) the adoption of the Svalbard Environmental Protection Act, and (3) the Norwegian Coast Guard's fishery enforcement measures in the Svalbard Fisheries Protection Zone. The article concludes that despite the changes that have taken place in the Euro-Arctic region after the Cold War, Svalbard has not ceased to be a security concern for Russia.
