- Summary
- Explains the continuing struggle between the contesting countries over the Spratly Islands in the South China Sea, the origins of which are partly historic and partly based on argumentation arising from the provisions of the Law of the Sea. Each country's standpoint is described in relation to its claim and is related to the modes of acquisition of territory according to the principles of international law. The reasoning related to these claims is quite different in the post-war period from that before World War II, a reflection of changed political and economic (natural resource exploitation) circumstances - Introduction.
