Book excerpt: Les explorateurs belges Dixie Dansercoer et Sam Deltour ont battu le record du monde de la plus longue expédition en Antarctique en autonomie totale. Ils ont réalisé cet exploit au cours de leur expédition Antarctie ICE dans l'Est-Antarctique, la dernière région de la planète restée inexplorée. Au terme de 71 jours intenses passés sur la glace, ils ont parcouru une distance de 5013 km ! Jour après jour, ils ont dû affronter les conditions les plus extrêmes : le froid bien sûr, qui pouvait descendre jusqu'à -50°c : le blizzard, qui rend tout cotonneux, mais aussi les terribles sastrugi, ces époustouflantes créations de la nature qui leur barraient sans cesse la route. La crainte aussi ... Celle de voir leur corps refuser de continuer après de multiples atteintes, celle de voir leur matériel les abandonner, celle de ne pas pouvoir être récupérés, et enfin et surtout, celle de ne jamais revoir leurs proches. Tous ces défis n'ont pu être surmontés que grâce à un esprit d'équipe sans faille, une préparation minutieuse et un encadrement d'un grande efficacité.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After thirty-five years the regime based on the Antarctic Treaty is more vigorous than ever. Here leading scholars of international law and international relations examine the effectiveness and legitimacy of this regime by asking two questions: are current changes affecting the regime's ability to cope with major problems in the region, and how do those changes affect its standing amongst parties to the Treaty and in the wider international community? Individual chapters deal with the Antarctic regimes for marine living resources, mineral activities, environmental protection, and tourism. Throughout, a keen eye is kept on how those components interact and reinforce each other. This analysis is supported by in-depth studies of compatibility and tension between the Antarctic Treaty System and the international community at large. It also draws upon case studies of how domestic concerns and decision-making in four selected countries affect international co-operation in the Antarctic.

Download or read book Challenge and Change written by Norma C. Noonan and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-11-11 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume addresses how the state system, the organizing political institution in world politics, copes with challenges of rapid change, unanticipated crises, and general turmoil in the twenty-first century. These disruptions are occurring against the background of declining US influence and the rising power of countries in Asia, Africa, and Latin America. Traditional inter-state security concerns coexist with new security preoccupations, such as rivalries likely to erupt over the resources of the global commons, the threat of cyber warfare, the ever-present threat of terrorism, and the economic and social repercussions of globalization. The contributors explore these key themes and the challenges posed by rapid change.

Download or read book Antarctic Policymaking and Science in the Netherlands Belgium and Germany 1957 1990 written by Benjamin Peter Abbink and published by Barkhuis. This book was released on 2009 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The focus of this study is on Dutch Antarctic policy. In order to explain Dutch Antarctic policy from the late 1950s until 1990 and to place it in a broader context, Dutch policy will be compared with the Antarctic policies of Belgium and Germany (Federal Republic of Germany, FRG) in the same period. 6 The comparison offers insights into the functioning of the ATS and into the roles - if any - of the three countries in this international regime in the period under investigation. This adds another central question to this research: How does Dutch Antarctic policy compare with the Belgian and German Antarctic policies in the same period?
