Opis

Mainstream media might be treating the South China Sea dispute as breaking news, but in this equal parts illuminating and alarming examination of China's maritime actions, James M. Fones, II, urges Americans to face reality: this is a crisis a long time in the making.

Examining history and international law, Fones traces the South China Sea conflict back to the 1970s and America's increasing attitude of isolationism. The correlation between America's passive stance and China's blatant disregard for international law is evidenced throughout the work.

While the current administration has repeatedly and unsuccessfully attempted appeasement, Fones offers a better solution. He details a comprehensive approach to rebuilding America's image and repositioning itself to help its allies.

Whether you're a concerned citizen, a businessperson looking to Asia, or just a history buff, you're sure to find this ongoing clash of global superpowers fascinating. And the insight into the sociopolitical ramifications is an abrupt wake-up call for us all.

Independent thinkers who appreciate the straight talk of Bill O'Reilly's Killing series will find Fones's accessible history and call to action eminently satisfying.
