Oliver, Editor "The Bering Strait Project: Symposium" is a world-exclusive overview of proposals for an inter-continental crossing between North America and the Asia-Europe landmass. The scheme for a Bering Strait crossing was first proposed in the mid-19th Century, and seriously considered in 1904 and again 1942. Since the end of the Cold War, the project has attracted renewed interest. In the 21st Century, an East-West link-up on the scale envisaged would be among the greatest projects in history, with profound implications for the global economy.

Download or read book Floating Coast An Environmental History of the Bering Strait written by Bathsheba Demuth and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2019-08-20 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A groundbreaking exploration of the relationship between capitalism, communism, and Arctic ecology since the dawn of the industrial age. Whales and walruses, caribou and fox, gold and oil: through the stories of these animals and resources, Bathsheba Demuth reveals how people have turned ecological wealth in a remote region into economic growth and state power for more than 150 years. The first-ever comprehensive history of Beringia, the Arctic land and waters stretching from Russia to Canada, Floating Coast breaks away from familiar narratives to provide a fresh and fascinating perspective on an overlooked landscape. The unforgiving territory along the Bering Strait had long been home to humans—the Inupiat and Yupik in Alaska, and the Yupik and Chukchi in Russia—before Americans and Europeans arrived with revolutionary ideas for progress. Rapidly, these frigid lands and waters became the site of an ongoing experiment: How, under conditions of extreme scarcity, would the great modern ideologies of capitalism and communism control and manage the resources they craved? Drawing on her own experience living with and interviewing indigenous people in the region, as well as from archival sources, Demuth shows how the social, the political, and the environmental clashed in this liminal space. Through the lens of the natural world, she views human life and economics as fundamentally about cycles of energy, bringing a fresh and visionary spin to the writing of human history. Floating Coast is a profoundly resonant tale of the dynamic changes and unforeseen consequences that immense human needs and ambitions have brought, and will continue to bring, to a finite planet.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether the reader is a Sci-Fi lover or a fiction devotee, The Bridge Over the Bering Strait by James Cotter is as imaginative as it is electrifying. Set in 2032, Cotter introduces an international team of engineers assembled to do what has never been achieved: tunnel under the Bering Sea and create a bridge between Siberia and Alaska, thereby linking Asia and the Americas for travel and trade. The key players driving this project-Ford and Darwi Walker, and their son Arivata, along with Sam Takahashi and Zoia Roskova-soon discover that they are part of something reaching far beyond structural engineering: this project threatens their personal lives, their reputations, and much more. Weaving together tribal customs and lore, political intimidation between the White House and the Kremlin, and then a disaster that ultimately leads to war, Cotter creates a story that pulls readers into its vortex and keeps us on edge to the final page.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The idea that it might be feasible and advantageous to build a dam across Bering Strait was first suggested in the last decade of the last century, in the belief that this would stop ice-laden Arctic water from passing through the Strait into the Bering Sea and thus ameliorate the climate of the North Pacific. In point of fact, very little, if any, Arctic water passes southward into the Bering Sea, but this was not known at the time."--Introduction.
