| Abstract | ||
| The Arctic has become a focal point of geostrategic competition among major powers, driven by climate change and increased geographical accessibility. This study examines the key factors influencing this competition by analyzing the region's strategic importance, the geopolitical strategies of dominant states, and possible future scenarios of conflict or cooperation. Utilizing analytical, foresight, and comparative methodologies, the research explores the evolving power dynamics in the Arctic. The study highlights the significance of legal and institutional frameworks in managing international relations in the region. Ultimately, it aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of Arctic geopolitics and offer insights into maintaining regional and global stability. The research problem is embodied in the rapid transformations witnessed in the Arctic as a result of climate change and increasing geographical openness, making it a focus of geostrategic competition between major powers. With the increasing importance of its natural resources, the opening of new sea routes, and the growing military and security dimensions, it has become an arena for reshaping the balance of power in the international system. | ||
