Perspectives on the South China Sea: Diplomatic, Legal and Security Dimensions of the Dispute

---

Perspectives on the South China Sea” brings together the analytical work of international experts to illuminate the complex web of diplomatic, legal, and security issues surrounding the South China Sea disputes.

The volume addresses how overlapping territorial and maritime claims, historical grievances, international law (especially the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, UNCLOS), and great-power rivalries converge in one of the world’s most contested sea-spaces.

Through a sequence of essays contributed by scholars from claimant states and outside observers, the book explores themes such as: how states craft legal and diplomatic strategies to support their claims; how regional institutions and external powers (e.g., the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, the United Nations, and the ASEAN Regional Forum) shape or are shaped by the dispute; and how military presence, maritime enforcement, and resource competition (fisheries, hydrocarbons, shipping lanes) raise the risk of escalation.

Ultimately, the book argues that while the South China Sea is a region of persistent tension and strategic competition, there are pathways toward moderation and cooperation—via clearer legal frameworks, confidence-building measures, and renewed regional dialogue. By integrating legal, strategic and diplomatic lenses, this volume equips policymakers, researchers and students to understand not only the fault-lines of the conflict, but also the prospects for managing them in an increasingly interconnected Indo-Pacific order.
