Since the coming into force of the United Nations Law of the Sea,
states have been targeting outlying islands to expand their
exclusive economic zones, simultaneously stirring up strident
nationalism when such plans clash with those of neighbouring
states. No such actions have brought the world closer to the brink
of war than the ongoing face-off between China and Japan over the
Diaoyu/Senkaku islands, an uninhabited archipelago in the East
China Sea. In this timely and original book, Godfrey Baldacchino
provides a detailed exploration of seven tried and tested solution
protocols that have led to innovative 'win-win' solutions to island
disputes over the last four centuries. A closer look at the
circumstances and processes that brought contending regional powers
to an honourable, even mutually advantageous, settlement over
islands provides a convincing and original argument as to why the
conflict over the Diaoyu/Senkaku islands need not conclude in a
'zero-sum' or 'winner takes all' solution, as is the likely outcome
of both open conflict and international arbitration. The book will
be of interest to scholars and practitioners concerned with the
festering Diaoyu/Senkaku dispute, as well as students, scholars and
policy specialists in geography, geopolitics, international
relations, conflict studies, island studies, Asian studies and
history.
