Arctic: Journal of the Arctic Institute of North America
North America's premier journal of Northern research
About the Journal
Now in its seventh decade of continuous publishing, Arctic contains contributions from any area of scholarship dealing with the polar and subpolar regions of the world. Articles in Arctic present original research and have withstood intensive peer review. Arctic also publishes reviews of new books on the North, profiles of significant people, places and northern events, and topical commentaries.
Arctic also contains the general interest section InfoNorth, which contains a contributed essay of northern interest and Institute news. To obtain an idea of the subjects covered by InfoNorth essays please look at the last item in each issue of Arctic since March 1997.
A subscription to Arctic will keep you informed of current thought and directions that cross disciplinary boundaries, enabling a broader understanding of today's rapidly changing circumpolar world. Arctic is distributed to members and organizational subscribers quarterly.
