This book provides a history of the South China Sea conflict and lays out the stakes for each of the bordering states and Chinas interaction with them namely, Vietnam, the Philippines, Brunei, Malaysia, Taiwan, and Indonesia; it also examines the U.S. governments role in the region. Chinas Naval Operations in the South China Sea is highly topical; it examines the evolving perception of the Peoples Republic of Chinas (PRC) of the South China Sea (SCS), and Beijings accompanying maritime strategy to claim the islands and waters, particularly in the context of the strategies of the neighbouring stakeholding nations. In addition to longstanding territorial disputes over the islands and waters of the SCS, China and the other littoral states Vietnam, the Philippines, Brunei, Malaysia, Taiwan, and Indonesia have growing and often mutually exclusive interests in the offshore energy reserves and fishing grounds. Many other countries outside of the region worry about the protection of sea lines of communication for military and commercial traffic, oil tankers in particular. These differences have been expressed in the increasing frequency and intensity of maritime incidents, involving both naval and civilian vessels, sometimes working in coordination against naval or civilian targets. Each chapter on the littoral states closely examines that states territorial claims to the islands and waters of the SCS, its primary economic and military interests in these areas, its views on the sovereignty disputes over the entire SCS, its strategy to achieve its objectives, and its views on the U.S. involvement in any and all of these issues.
