Abstract "Maritime issues are particularly important for Asian countries, where there is a high reliance on shipping routes for international trade, many difficult disputes over maritime boundaries, and the prospect of increasing tensions where maritime power might play a significant role. This book provides a comprehensive survey of the maritime issues affecting Asia."--Publisher's description.
