This commentary examines the tensions over maritime disputes in the East and South China Seas. The author argues that the tensions escalated in 2013 and that the region remains locked in a dangerous cycle of action and reaction with the attendant danger that a direct military confrontation could break out between the countries in the region. He suggest that this means that there is an urgent need for a comprehensive political and diplomatic approach that can provide effective crisis management in the region.
