Environmental and Technological Threats in the Arctic Region: Infrastructures, Geopolitics and Strategy (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781041035855)

Magali Vullierme has a PhD in political science. Her research aims to better understand multi-scalar security issues from the point of view of Indigenous and local populations in Arctic subregions. Magali Vullierme mobilizes the concept of human security and its seven dimensions in research analysing collaboration between the Canadian Inuit and the Canadian Armed Forces, health security in Nunavik, or risks linked to the acceleration of permafrost thaw for Indigenous peoples from the Sakha-Yakoutia Republic (Russia) and for Canadian infrastructures, both civilian and military. She is an associate researcher at the Observatoire de la Politique et la Sécurité de l'Arctique (OPSA, Canada) and at the Cultures, Environments, Arctic, Representations, Climate (CEARC, University of Versailles Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines, France). Within the OPSA, Magali Vullierme co-directs the annual review L'Année Arctique.
