Law Wars: Academia and the Manufacture of International Humanitarian Law
Despite the emergence of much critical discourse on the conventional history of international humanitarian law ( IHL ) over the last decades, the way in which this conventional history is told and re-told remains virtually unaltered in one key area of dissemination: teaching materials. By conducting an in-depth examination of these materials, this article uncovers the techniques used over time to generate and perpetuate the conventional IHL histo…

Vision accomplished? A decade of Nordefco
While the origins of modern Nordic cooperation on defence matters can be traced back to 1963, the formal Nordic Defence Cooperation framework (NORDEFCO) did not come into existence until 2009. This article aims to assess how successful NORDEFCO has been over the past decade, by reference to the framework's own stated goals as contained in its Vision 2020 Statement, released in 2013. By examining NORDEFCO's performance against its own published ex…

An Arctic ‘cold rush’? Understanding Greenland's (in)dependence question
Over the last decade claims that an Arctic ‘cold rush’ is taking place have intensified. Proponents of the argument contend that the unprecedented effects of climate change plus strong global demand for the region's natural resources are creating the conditions for a future economic boom. In both of these respects, Greenland merits particular attention. Some recent predictions suggest great riches accruing to Greenland, on account of its abundanc…
Three Emerging Security Challenges for the UK
In light of the planned 2015 Strategic Defence and Security Review, it is timely to consider afresh the global security landscape and the UK's place within it. What does “security” mean in this context, and what challenges does the UK face? Following a discussion of the meaning of “security”, the article will identify three broad themes from which security challenges for the UK emerge. These are: (1) cyberspace and the digital age; (2) change and…
Society, steward or security actor? Three visions of the Arctic Council
While a long-term decrease in overall Arctic sea ice extent has been recorded by the US National Snow and Ice Data Center (2014) since the late 1970s, the unprecedented levels of ice melting and thinning experienced in the region in 2007, and subsequently in 2012, have brought the Arctic once again to the forefront of international affairs. Much popular and academic attention has focused on whether the Arctic is likely to remain a zone of coopera…
