E-book.
Summary: Maritime tensions remain at the top of the Asian security agenda, with the 22-23 July 2011 meetings in Bali of the East Asia Summit and ASEAN Regional Forum. These issues are at the core of a major recent report from the Lowy Institute's MacArthur Foundation Asia Security Project, which warns of the risks of war in the South China Sea and other regional waters. Authors Rory Medcalf and Raoul Heinrichs, with maritime adviser Justin Jones, examine the drivers of Asia's maritime 'crisis of confidence', including clashes of sovereignty, national pride and military strategy. They conclude with a modest and realistic set of 'confidence-building' recommendations to avert conflict at sea, both in East Asia and across the wider Indo-Pacific region.
