Working Papers from eSocialSciences

Abstract: Spot fire disputes have sparked across Asia, with the winds of nationalism spurring them on. If one flares up it could ignite a region. Escalating tensions should have mediators vigilant and with pails of water at the ready. With tensions escalating rapidly in Asia’s territorial disputes, this Policy Brief takes a look at the current situation and some of the possible triggers for conflict. [ISDP Policy Brief No. 98].
