Zusammenfassung:Field notes -- Ecological politics -- Science cooperation and diplomacy
"This book seeks to raise awareness for the conservation of marine biodiversity and sustainability of fisheries that can no longer be ignored. The impact of continuous coastal development, reclamation, destruction of corals, overfishing and increased maritime traffic places all of us on the front lines. Marine biologists, who share a common language that cuts across political, economic and social differences, recognize that the sea's remarkable coral reefs, which provide food, jobs and protection against storms and floods, have suffered unprecedented rates of destruction in recent decades. The book's division into three separate parts: field notes, ecological politics and science diplomacy leads the reader to the understanding that there's common ground that may lead to policy transformation and even resolution of maritime conflicts. What distinguishes this book from others on the South China Sea is a hybrid of participatory research and field reportage.
