| Summary/Abstract |
As the Arctic ice melts, the polar region is becoming increasingly exposed to the political tussles of resource exploitation. Accompanying the territorial disputes is the imminent militarisation of the international space by circumpolar states. The UK has a difficult decision to make: either include the Arctic in its future defence strategy or advocate a zone of peace in this valuable part of the world. it cannot do both.
