'Gloria Pungetti’s edited volume is a worthy addition to its canon of literature...More satisfying in many ways are substantial chapters that demonstrate a methodology, which not only deepens their explanation, but would also encourage other scholars to take up the ideas for further study.' Stephen Royle, Queen’s University Belfast, EuropeNow Issue 10"In this book, Ulrik Pram Gad provides an insightful account of the ‘sovereignty games’ that define the relationship between Greenland, Denmark, and the EU in the context of Greenland’s pursuit of sovereign statehood. Greenland’s anticipated oil riches, minerals, and access to transport routes form an important part of this imagined future and are used as an asset in interactions with third parties."Nina Doering, Univerisy of Oxford, UK
