Synopsis

The discovery, just forty years ago, of vast oil and gas reserves in Norway's Arctic High North region created an economic titan. This original research illustrates the many challenges and opportunities now facing Norway's citizens in a region which the government has designated its top strategic priority. An ethnographic study, the book showcases interviews with 21 representative individuals from the area and reveals the various impacts petroleum development has on their regional economy and culture.
