Inhalt
The South China Sea dispute is one of the most pressing security problems in East Asia. A standoff between Filipino and Chinese war vessels in 2012 over a fisher boat-incident near Panatag Shoal (as the Philippines call it) and Huangyan Island (as the Chinese call it) almost turned into an open military conflict. Such a conflict would significantly hinder freedom of passage and navigation in the South China Sea. Considering that annually roughly one third of global trade passes through the Sea and the adjacent Strait of Malacca makes it a strategic waterway. The economic consequences of a conflict between the riparian states, such as China, Taiwan, the Philippines, Brunei, Malaysia and Vietnam would thus be significant. Against this background the seminar will focus on the causes, manifestations and effects of this conflict over time by addressing factors such as the national interest of the state actors involved, historical patterns of hegemony in the region, the response of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and the ASEAN Reginal Forum (ARF) to this security problem and the role of international regimes such as the United Nations Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) and the Permanent Court of Arbitration at the International Court of Justice.
