In the sphere of future global politics, no region will be as hotly contested as the Asia-Pacific, where great power interests collide amid the mistrust of unresolved conflicts and disputed territory. This is where authoritarian China is trying to rewrite international law and challenge the democratic values of the US and its allies.
The lightning rods of conflict are remote reefs and islands from which China has created military bases in the 1.5-million-square-mile expanse of the South China Sea, a crucial world trading route this rising world power now claims as its own.
No other Asian country can take on China alone. They look for protection from the US, although it too may be ill-equipped for the job at hand. If China does get away with seizing and militarizing waters here, what will it do elsewhere in the world, and who will be able to stop it?
In Asian Waters, award-winning foreign correspondent Humphrey Hawksley breaks down the politics - and tensions - he has followed through this region for years. Reporting on decades of political developments, he has witnessed China's rise to become one of the world's most wealthy and militarized countries, and he delivers in Asian Waters the compelling narrative of this most volatile region.
