• Summary:"The changing Arctic is of broad political concern and is being studied across many fields. This book investigates ongoing changes in the Arctic from a landscape perspective. It examines settlements and territories of the Barents Sea Coast, Northern Norway, the Russian Kola Peninsula, Svalbard and Greenland, from an interdisciplinary and design based and future oriented perspective. The Future North project has travelled Arctic regions since 2012, mapped landscapes and settlements, documented stories and practices and discussed possible futures with local actors. Reflecting the multidisciplinary of the project, the authors in this book look at political and economic strategies, urban development, land use strategies, local initiatives in specific locations that are subject to different forces of change. This book explores current material conditions in the Arctic as effects of industrial and political agency and social initiatives. It provides a combined view on the build environment and urbanism, as well as the cultural and material landscapes of the Arctic. The chapters move beyond single-disciplinary perspectives on the Arctic, and engages with futures, cultural landscapes and communities in ways that build both on architectural and ethnographic participatory methods"-- Provided by publisher.
