本文探讨了南极地区国际治理的主要机构及其成员，以及它们对新参与者的开放程度。它考虑了这些机构对新参与的开放程度与其长期的国际合法性和效力之间的关系。以《南极条约系统》为起点，审查每一个组成部分的参与、透明度和合法性。它将这些标准适用于国家和非国家行为者以及缔约方和非缔约方。最终，它试图确定在一个急剧变化的世界中，哪些因素促成了它在过去五十年中的成功，以及哪些因素可能导致它未来的脆弱性。这项研究和结论可能会对北极发生的事情产生共鸣。
This article explores the principal institutions of international governance of the Antarctic region, their members, and how open they are to new participants. It considers the relationship between the openness of these institutions to new participation and their long-term international legitimacy and efficacy. Taking as its starting point the Antarctic Treaty System, each constituent part is examined for participation, transparency and legitimacy. It applies these criteria to both State and non-State actors and to parties and non-parties. Ultimately it seeks to determine what factors have contributed to its success over five decades in a radically changing world, and what factors might contribute to its future vulnerability. The examination and conclusions might have resonance for what happens in the Arctic.
