Abstract

Teritorijalni sporovi u Istočnom kineskom i Južnom kineskom moru čimbenici su regionalne sigurnosti istočne Azije od sredine 20. stoljeća. U ovome se radu kroz prizmu regionalizma i popratnih teorija sagledava sigurnosna dinamika regije pod utjecajem različitih pristupa upravljanja navedenim sporovima. Preduvjet provedbi analize čini izlaganje povijesnog konteksta postojećih sporova te prikaz mogućih okvira međudržavne suradnje u pogledu njihova rješavanja. Nadalje, ključna je uloga Kine kao regionalne sila čije odluke značajnije utječu na razinu rizika i konfliktni potencijal, u usporedbi s drugim akterima. Na primjeru izdvojenih incidenata u razdoblju od 2010. do 2014. opisani su postojeći mehanizmi upravljanja i mogućnost implementacije istih, uz osvrt na ulogu metode odvraćanja u doprinosu regionalnoj stabilnosti.

Abstract (english)

Territorial disputes in the East China Sea and the South China Sea have been crucial factors of East Asian regional security since the mid-twentieth century. In this paper, the security dynamics of the region influenced by different approaches to the management of the disputes are analyzed in regard to regionalism theories. Preceding the main analysis is the historical account of the disputes and the frameworks of interstate cooperation indicating theoretical perspectives to conflict management. The role of China in the analysis is one of regional power whose actions alter the risk and conflict potential significantly in comparison to the other actors. The existing conflict management mechanisms and the prospects of their implementation are described through several examples of isolated incidents in the period from 2010 to 2014, indicating also to what extent deterrence has contributed to regional stability.
