Description

Explore the complex maritime history of the South China Sea with this Routledge publication. This book addresses why the US Navy maintains a presence in this region by tracing diplomatic, economic, and military tensions from 1945 to 2023. It examines the relationships between the People's Republic of China, the Soviet Union, the United States, and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam. The text outlines the origins of US-Vietnam relations in the post-World War II era and the impact of the Vietnam War, during which China supported North Vietnam. Readers will also learn about the significant shift in 1972 when the US government decided to open relations with China. This historical analysis provides a deep look at the shifting dynamics that shaped the region from 1945 through 1975 and beyond.
