| Abstract: | Why would China and Japan risk large scale military conflict over a few insignificant and uninhabited rocks? These little ‘islands’ should, as Baldacchino’s argues, mean nothing to these two great powers. But even the most superficial Google search quickly reveals that disagreement about who owns the Diaoyu/Senkaku Islands, and the Exclusive Economic Zones (EEZs) and fishing grounds that extend from their coastlines, could mean everything. Explaining this, and considering what might be done about it, is the central aim of this book. |
