In this paper, the intention of the author is to present how the idea of “North” and all its referents have been enriched in recent decades. It seems as though “Nordicity” has, especially over the last 60 years, been experiencing a double movement both of expansion/proliferation and delimitation/restriction in four specific spheres: geospatial, thematic, political and linguistic. The author considers that this dual movement of expansion and delimitation has provided the key elements to building the North as a “zone of distinction”, and consequently, has provided sufficient justification for political intervention in the circumpolar North. The paper presents the hypothesis that these key elements, away from purely manipulative purposes, have a constructive function and contribute to the emergence of the phenomenon of so-called “Circumpolar Cooperation.” The author therefore proposes at the end of the paper to open the discussion on the legitimacy of a field of research attached to the geopolitics of justification(s).

The history of expeditions to and discoveries of Arctic and Antarctic regions is shown by means of detailed accounts about the core events, such as the expedition of J.Cook (1772-1775), F.Bellinsgauzen and M.Lazarev (1819-1820), R.Amundsen (1911) and R.Scott (1901-1904); internationalization of research in Arctic and the arrangement of the First International Polar Year in 1882-1883. Organization of polar research in Russia at the beginning of XX century is shown, with emphasis on the role of the S.-Petersburg Academy of Sciences where the standing interdisciplinary Polar Commission was founded apart from the existing Hydrographic Expedition of the Arctic Ocean, organized by the government's Chief Hydrographic Department. The Commission had a broad range of objectives, including investigations of all the polar countries, accurate accounting for everything done, organization of expeditions, planning of systematic works in Arctic, elaboration of legal rules for international cooperation etc.
