This book brings together experts on China and the Arctic, each chapter contributing to a detailed overview of China’s diplomatic, economic, environmental, scientific and strategic presence in the Arctic and its influence on regional affairs. The book is of interest to students, scholars and those dealing with China’s foreign policy and Arctic affairs.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Preface and Acknowledgements   List of Abbreviations   Notes on Contributors    1 Introduction to China’s Arctic Engagement    Sanna Kopra and Timo Koivurova    2 China’s Rise in a Changing World    Marc Lanteigne, Timo Koivurova and Matti Nojonen    3 China’s Arctic Policy    Timo Koivurova, Sanna Kopra, Marc Lanteigne, Matti Nojonen, Malgorzata (Gosia) Smieszek and Adam Stepien    4 China and Arctic Science    Malgorzata Smieszek, Timo Koivurova and Egill Thor Nielsson    5 China, Climate Change and the Arctic Environment    Sanna Kopra, Karoliina Hurri, Liisa Kauppila, Adam Stepien and Yulia Yamineva    6 China’s Economic Presence in the Arctic: Realities, Expectations and Concerns    Adam Stepien, Liisa Kauppila, Sanna Kopra, Juha Käpylä, Marc Lanteigne, Harri Mikkola and Matti Nojonen    7 Chinese-Finnish Economic Relations within the Arctic Context: Hopes and Disappointments    Adam Stepien, Timo Koivurova, Juha Käpylä, Harri Mikkola and Matti Nojonen    8 Conclusion: China’s Policy and Presence in the Arctic    Timo Koivurova, Sanna Kopra, Marc Lanteigne and Adam Stepien     Index","brand":"Brill","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53210780533079,"sku":"9789004408418","price":104.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/chinese-policy-and-presence-in-the-arctic-9789004408418","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
