Crossing disciplinary boundaries, this volume offers a rare forum
for a serious analysis of the territorial dispute over the
Diaoyu/Senkaku Islands between China and Japan. To understand the
complexity of the dispute and to find peaceful solutions, we must
reach beyond the confines of a single discipline and perspective.
The volume deconstructs conflicting perspectives on the two sides
of the dispute. Territorial disputes often become symbolic
expressions of nationalistic rivalries, particularly as political
claims for territories escalate and economic competition for
resources between countries intensifies. Cutting through the
political rhetoric on both sides of the controversy and bringing
together a group of eight scholars from the disciplines of history,
international relations, law, political science, and sociology,
this book analyzes the relevant history, international law,
multilateral relations, political agendas, and social and
collective memory, to shed light on this difficult dispute. Taken
together, the chapters of the book propose short-term, medium-term,
and long-term peaceful solutions for going beyond the impasse of
the current territorial dispute.
