handle is hein.journals/occoa23 and id is 148 raw text is: TOWARD DISTRIBUTIVE JUSTICE IN OFFSHORE NATURAL RESOURCES DEVELOPMENT: ICELAND AND NORWAY IN THE JAN MAYEN by Anita L. Parlow, Esq. ABSTRACT As pressures of globalization and advances in technology accelerate, more and more remote, coastal, and small communities are left financially stranded and disempowered. Many communities located at the historic periphery of global markets and trade routes are, often paradoxically, marginalized from the benefits of globalized trade, even while their more accessible natural resources have moved far closer to the center of global markets. The powerful political institutions of nation states combined with growing transnational businesses are driving a combination of boosts in national economies, explosions in technology, and fewer international restrictions on capital. This three-pronged dynamic is reshaping the structure and impacts of an accelerating global economy, creating an international global class of citizenry for whom borders have diminished meaning. 1 Anita L. Parlow, Esq. Mst., a Fulbright Iceland Scholar, Team Lead for the Woodrow Wilson Polar Code Roundtable Project, and advisor, Harvard-MIT Arctic Fisheries Project. Parlow, who has authored numerous op-eds, has advised corporate, tribal and international organization on social and environmental risk, corporate responsibility and due diligence issues.
