"ABSTRAKPemanasan global merupakan salah satu indikator bahwa bumi ini sedang berada pada kondisi tertentu yang memerlukan perhatian lebih besar dari sebelumnya. Dalam isu pemanasan global, Arktik menjadi salah satu kawasan yang menarik perhatian dunia karena efek pemanasan global paling besar dapat dilihat di kawasan ini. Pada tahun 1996, sebuah forum kerjasama bernama Dewan Arktik dibentuk. Tujuan utama dari forum ini adalah untuk melindungi lingkungan, melestarikan sumber daya alam yang tersimpan, dan melaksanakan pembangunan berkelanjutan bagi masyarakat di kawasan Arktik. Setelah hampir 24 tahun pembentukan forum ini, kondisi Arktik justru semakin memprihatinkan. Lapisan es yang semula tebal menutupi permukaan, kini semakin menipis seiring dengan semakin bertambahnya suhu bumi. Sumber daya alam yang terkandung di dalam kawasan ini juga perlahan mulai berkurang kadarnya, dan hal ini bukan digunakan untuk kepentingan masyarakat Arktik itu sendiri. Dengan menggunakan teori regional security complex, penelitian ini akan menganalisa faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi pembentukan forum ini, serta alasan atas ketidakmampuan forum Dewan Arktik dalam mencapai tujuan pembentukannya. Pertanyaan yang hendak dijawab dalam peneltian ini adalah Mengapa pasca Dewan Arktik terbentuk masih terjadi eksploitasi sumber daya alam secara berlebihan serta militerisasi di kawasan Arktik yang menyebabkan dampak pemanasan global tidak berkurang di kawasan ini? Pertanyaan selanjutnya adalah Mengapa negara-negara anggota Dewan Arktik tidak dapat memenuhi komitmen awal pembentukannya?

ABSTRACTGlobal warming is one of the indicator that the earth, to some extent, requires greater attention than it does before. On the issue of global warming, the Arctic has become one of the regions that has attracted global attention because of the greatest global warming effect could be seen in this region. On 1996, a cooperation forum, named the Arctic Council, was created. The main purposes of this forum are to protect the environment, to conserve the stored natural resources, and to manage sustainable development for people in Arctic. After nearly 24 years of its establishment, the Arctic condition is even more alarming. The layer of ice that was originally thick has become thinner as the earth's temperature increases. The natural resources contained in this region are also starting to diminish, but not for the good of Arctic society. Using the regional security complex theory, this research will analyze the factors that influence the formation of this forum, as well as the reasons for the inability of the Arctic Council forum to achieve its goals. The question that needs to be answered in this research is: Why is it that after the Arctic Council was establish there was still natural resources excessive exploitation and the militarization in the Arctic region that caused the effects of global warming to not diminish in this region? The next question is, why can't the members of the Arctic Council meet their commitments to establish the forum?."
