Foreign Policy in Greenland will shed light on what kind of competences Greenland has in IR and how Greenland undertakes foreign policy, while still being a self-governing territory underneath Danish jurisdiction. Even though Denmark has the ultimate power when it comes to foreign- and security policy, Greenland has received more autonomy in this field in recent years. Back in 1995 a permanent Danish/Greenlandic official group was established to discuss all foreign- and security matters that wererelated to Greenland. In 2003, Greenland and Denmark signed a joint declaration in Itilleq regarding the Greenlandic involvement in international affairs. Since then, the Government of Greenland has written a foreign policy report every year to outline the activities of Greenlandic international relations.

This book will undertake a systematic analysis of the foreign policy papers since 2003 (or earlier) and onwards. What kind of activities have Greenland undertaken in international affairs? What are the objectives? Can Greenland be an influential player in international relations? How far is the self-government stretched or limited in relation to international relations?

This book will be of interest for those with an interest in international affairs and law as well as those with an interest in international politics and foreign policy.

Maria Ackrén is currently Professor of Political Science with a special focus on island autonomy at Ilisimatusarfik/University of Greenland since January 2024.
