Summary/Abstract

What do Mexican civil instability and an increasingly well-armed narco-insurgency mean for homeland defense? What lessons about confronting U.S. military power might the drug networks have learned from those other malevolent networks, the same ones responsible for 9/11? And while we have always assumed a neat institutional distinction between the United States' internal defenses and the military power mobilized to protect its international interests, are porous borders and trans-national syndicates blurring those boundaries? These questions become more urgent with the growth of affluent, aggressive, and highly networked groups where the traditional distinctions between criminal and terrorist are often rendered meaningless.

Summary/Abstract

Once a Cold War prize, Iceland's geopolitical position has been marginalised since the break-up of the Soviet Union, as underscored by the US military withdrawal. Currently grapppling with an economic disaster, Iceland has focused on societal security instead of territorial defence. Yet the scramble for the Arctic has revived the Northern dimension - Icelandic Arctic discourses now play on the prospects of a renewed strategic relevance in a future Great Game, wrought by the impact of climate change in the region.
