This compact, insightful book offers an up-to-the-minute guide to
understanding the evolution of maritime territorial disputes in
East Asia, exploring their legal, political-security and economic
dimensions against the backdrop of a brewing Sino-American rivalry
for hegemony in the Asia-Pacific region. It traces the decades-long
evolution of Sino-American relations in Asia, and how this pivotal
relationship has been central to prosperity and stability in one of
the most dynamics regions of the world. It also looks at how middle
powers - from Japan and Australia to India and South Korea - have
joined the fray, trying to shape the trajectory of the territorial
disputes in the Western Pacific, which can, in turn, alter the
future of Asia - and ignite an international war that could
re-configure the global order. The book examines how the maritime
disputes have become a litmus test of China's rise, whether it has
and will be peaceful or not, and how smaller powers such as Vietnam
and the Philippines have been resisting Beijing's territorial
ambitions. Drawing on extensive discussions and interviews with
experts and policy-makers across the Asia-Pacific region, the book
highlights the growing geopolitical significance of the East and
South China Sea disputes to the future of Asia - providing insights
into how the so-called Pacific century will shape up.
