The Falkland Islands, called Islas Malvinas by Argentina, are a crucial strategic gateway to Antarctica and the sub-Antarctic islands for Great Britain and others. The centuries-old sovereignty dispute between Argentina and the UK over the islands has in recent weeks reignited and could come to have wider implications for the geopolitics of the South Atlantic and Antarctica. Prof. Klaus Dodds, who has written an array of books and articles on the enduring dispute, joins the podcast to discuss the geopolitical dynamics of an increasingly strategic region that is attracting heightened attention in an era of hemispheric defense-thinking and Great Power Competition.
