Full Description
Archives exert power, they build narratives, and they influence the destinies of individuals and Peoples. While archival theorists and practitioners have been attuned to the problems of shared, displaced and disputed archives, the issue has been long neglected by international lawyers. In the last four decades, there has been very limited exploration of international law and archives, and none that has focused on the Arctic. This anthology addresses a major gap in the literature and provides the intellectual foundation for further progress on the complex legal, diplomatic, cultural, and technical problems attending displaced archives and their repatriation.
