Full Description
This monograph discusses the contemporary role of sea basins in global politics. It highlights their economic and political importance, especially how countries use them to achieve regional and global goals. It also examines how these policies affect political and economic relations in different regions, considering international sea laws. The book also covers regional conditions around various sea basins and how they influence the maritime strategies of global and regional powers. It discusses specific maritime policies of key countries and how these policies fit into their overall international activities. Additionally, it looks at inter-state disputes and their impact on regional peace, as well as the legal status of different sea basins and their role in shaping the international order.
The volume begins with an exploration of the historical determinants shaping maritime activity and the status of sea powers. It examines the evolution of sea power concepts from the 19th century to the 20th century, highlighting the impact of technological advancements and legal regulations like the Montego Bay Convention. The emergence of non-state players and their influence on maritime strategies is also discussed. The subsequent chapters analyze the maritime policies of supra-regional players such as the USA, PRC, Russia, and the EU, emphasizing the strategic assumptions and naval capabilities required to achieve their maritime goals.
Further chapters focus on the geopolitical significance of specific sea basins, including the polar oceans, the Indo-Pacific, and the Atlantic. The book examines the strategic importance of these regions, the role of regional and global powers, and the impact of climate change and international regulations. It also highlights the unique maritime policies of regional powers like India, Japan, and Australia, and their interactions with major players. The final chapters address the strategic importance of the waters surrounding Europe, particularly the Black Sea, and the interplay between regional stability and the interests of major powers like Russia, China, and Turkey.
This approach will enable readers to understand the importance of sea basins both in the policy of global and regional state maritime players, and the impact of their maritime activity on the shape of the international system. As such this book will be an excellent resource for researchers and students of international relations, geopolitics and geostrategy as well as decision-makers and practitioners dealing with the analysis of maritime activity of states, their use in the implementation of state policy and the role of individual sea basins in global politics.
