China's activities and interests in the South China Sea

James Brown

Abstract

Professor Brown reviews China's recent activities in the South China Sea, including land reclamation on Fiery Cross and Mischief Reefs, within the broader context of strategic competition between China and the United States. He examines why China is taking this approach, despite it undermining China's other external relationships; and concludes by documenting Australia's response to these developments.
