Abstract

Why is it worth discussing the subject of international law and cooperation in the Arctic? Or to put it more bluntly: Do states and organisations have a duty to cooperate in Arctic affairs? And can a state or an organisation claim a right to be involved in Arctic cooperation? Do the Arctic states have any special responsibility? With respect to the first question – why it is worth discussing the subject of international law and cooperation in the Arctic – there are several major reasons why this is so, and they relate to: (a) the need for cooperation in the Arctic; (b) the manner in which cooperation takes place in the Arctic; (c) the development of the international law of cooperation; and (d) the link between the obligation to cooperate and responsibility.
