Current Issues
  In most respects, the striking growth of international cooperation in the Arctic during the recent past is good news. No one would advocate turning the clock back to an era dominated by Cold War divisions and core/periphery relations in the Circumpolar North. Yet the fact that ventures in international cooperation are bursting out all over in the Arctic does raise a variety of issues that will demand careful consideration as we seek to flesh out our vision of the Arctic as a distinct region at the opening of the new millennium. This section seeks to frame and to provide an initial commentary on eight of the most significant of these issues.
