The Dangerous Waters forum was held on September 25th, 2014The Forum was held from 9 AM to 1 PM on September 25th, 2014, at the University of California, Berkeley.
The chess game being played out in the South China Sea by China, Vietnam, the United States and other affected countries has wide implications as China's needs, power and economy expands. In today's closely connected world the challenge is to find a path that will not lead to conflict. So far the countries involved have been unable to harness China's need for expansion, and are headed for the shoals of an armed conflict that could reverberate around the world. The goal of the September 25th forum, Dangerous Waters, was to commence an ongoing discussion focused on this issue which will present various views and analyses, and, hopefully, practical paths toward accommodation and compromise which will avoid conflict and make the best use of limited resources for all. |
