Performing Arctic Sovereignty - Corine (University of Cambridge Wood-Donnelly - Bog

This book offers a novel analysis of Arctic postage stamps and their representations of Arctic sovereignty in the United States, Canada and Russia. It explores how these countries have absorbed Arctic territory into their national consciousness through the symbolic imagery of postage stamps, examining how the choice of, and use of, symbols and images on stamps tells a story of how these countries have presented their Arctic frontiers, colonies, and peripheries.
