Territorial disputes refer to disputes over territories that are
claimed by two or more independent countries. The disputes may
evolve from historical and/or cultural claims, or they may be
brought on by competition of resource exploitation. Ethnic clashes
continue to be responsible for much of the territorial
fragmentation around the world. Disputes over islands at sea or in
rivers frequently form the source of territorial and boundary
conflicts. Other sources of contention include access to water and
mineral (especially petroleum) resources, fisheries, and arable
land. Issues pertaining to the territorial control of seawaters
have long been the subject of international law. This book sets out
to present a guide to resource management in disputed areas
throughout the world.
