Arctic Review on Law and Politics is a scientific, multidisciplinary journal in the fields of law and social sciences with a primary emphasis on law. Law and social sciences are understood in a wide sense, however, and encompass such academic disciplines as economics, political science, sociology and social anthropology. Arctic Review on Law and Politics is currently registered as a ‘level 1’ journal in the Norwegian Register for Scientific Journals, Series and Publishers and hereby seeks ‘level 2’ status.
The journal presents original peer-reviewed articles on topics related to the Circumpolar Northern societies and publishes papers on governance, resource management, fishery issues, environmental law and policy, sustainable development, law of the sea and human rights. The journal also has a heavy focus on Sámi and other Northern indigenous people’s rights and protection of aboriginal livelihoods, languages and cultures. Manuscript submissions are subject to a rigorous double-blind peer-review process with two independent peers, in accordance with best practices in scientific journal publishing. In addition to original peer-reviewed articles, the journal publishes editorials, book reviews, debate articles and news on Arctic law and politics.
Arctic Review on Law and Politics has its seat at UiT The Arctic University of Norway, Tromsø. The editorial team includes an associate editor situated in Prince George, Canada, and national co-editors from Canada, Denmark, Iceland, Finland, Russia, Sweden and the United States. The editorial board is also internationally representative.
Arctic Review is academically leading within the subject field of law relating to Circumpolar Northern societies and is thus one of the journals that publish the most significant articles in this field – and on an international level. A large number of articles published in Arctic Review originate from circumpolar countries such as Canada and Russia, in addition to the Scandinavian countries.
Arctic Review has been an open access journal since 2015, and in this way reaches readers all over the world. This is reflected in the journal’s download statistics, which are as follows (for 2017–2019):
Digital usage/readership 2017 2018 2019
Number of unique downloads:
Total 14,580 22,737 36,691
From Denmark 825 1,585
From Finland 390 423
From Norway 6,741 7,801
From Sweden 291 1,289
From Iceland 93 117
International 14,397 25,476
As Arctic and circumpolar law is a relatively small subject area, citations registered in Scopus do not provide an accurate picture of the journal's international significance. The download numbers are in that sense a better indicator.
Focusing not only on the countries of the Circumpolar North but also the impact that powerful countries such as United States and China have on the Arctic speaks to Arctic Review’s relevance and importance. A return to level 2 status, which the journal had from 2016 to 2019, will contribute to increased scientific publication on the Circumpolar North, producing more knowledge in this area in an academic context.
Restoring Arctic Review to level 2 will contribute to the overall goal that all academic communities of a certain size should have at least one journal at level 2 to reach for. With Arctic Review at level 2, those who work with legal issues pertaining to the northernmost regions, environmental law and not least indigenous law in such a context, will have a level 2 journal to reach for.
