Atlas for Marine Policy in East Asian Seas

Bordered by the Soviet Union, Japan, China, Taiwan, and North and South Korea, the East Asian Seas contribute in a number of ways to the political and economic climate of the world. Morgan and Valencia's new Atlas addresses vital issues in a region characterized by disputed jurisdictional claims, commercial rivalries, and conflicting military interests. The Atlas provides a data base necessary for the effective solution of marine policy problems. The more than sixty maps are augmented by tables, figures, and clearly stated analyses of national and transnational ocean policy disputes. With the aim of increasing "marine awareness" among policymakers and scholars of the region, the editors emphasize a regional perspective and examine the feasibility of international cooperative approaches to issues in this politically charged arena.
