The Arctic Institute is launching a new series of podcasts! In this series, TAI Research Associates Liubov Timonina and Romain Chuffart talk to scholars and experts about different ways to understand and know the Arctic to make the region easy and accessible to everybody.

For this second podcast, Romain and Liuba had a conversation with TAI Research Associate and Social Media manager Lillian Hussong about her recently published book chapter “No UNCLOS, No Icebreakers, No Clue? U.S. Arctic Policy Through the Eyes of Congress” co-authored with TAI’s very own Managing Director, Dr. Victoria Herrmann, in the Handbook on Geopolitics and Security in the Arctic: The High North Between Cooperation and Confrontation (Springer 2020).

Lillian Hussong is a PhD Candidate in International Relations at Rutgers University in New Jersey. She is currently working on a thesis about American national security in the Arctic and the Baltic theatres. This episode was recorded six weeks before the US Presidential election in September 2020.
