This book shows how state identities are narrated as both geographical and temporal  understood through environments, territories, pasts and futures  and that any identity is always relational and contextual. As such, demonstrating that to understand Arctic geopolitics we need to pay attention to the people whose job it is to represent the state on a daily basis. And more broadly, it offers a 'peopled' view of geopolitics, introducing the concept and framework of 'state identity'.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47920510894238,"sku":"ING-9781526153906","price":183.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781526153906.jpg?v=1782822582","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781526153906","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
