Polar Studies

Once thought of as geographically peripheral, the polar regions have become central to our understanding of world history, climate, and development. The growing transnational significance of the polar regions, as well as accelerated climate change at the poles, makes it ever more urgent to document their histories and understand their geopolitical and environmental implications. The Polar Studies book series will solicit a wide variety of projects that capture the importance of these understudied regions. While the primary focus of the series will be historical (including science, technology, exploration, and environment), we will also consider projects that approach the region from other perspectives, including indigenous anthropology, contemporary science, international studies, geography, law, policy, and animal studies, creating a diverse and nuanced library of works examining the role of the polar regions as political and international frontier zones.
