Roman Khandozhko presenting some great new research on Soviet imaginaries of Antarctic minerals at the Tensions of Europe conference — a really interesting take on how this reflected wider trends in Soviet conceptions of territory and resources.

"It seems ironic that many of the most active #Antarctic researchers are sent to the continent by states whose actions most undermine the stability of their researchers’ very object of study." A. Mancilla @UniOsloHF @PederRoberts @UniStavanger via @aeonmag aeon.co/essays/how-do-we-sol…
Alejandra Mancilla and I have a new piece in ⁦@aeonmag⁩ on whether Antarctica can be protected in the age of global climate change. How do we solve the paradox of protection in Antarctica? | Aeon Essays aeon.co/essays/how-do-we-sol…
