    About this ebook

    China’s engagement with ASEAN over the South China Sea, from the Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea to the ongoing negotiations on the Code of Conduct (COC), exhibits a dynamic continuum with two constants:
    1. Dismissal of any legally binding instrument that would constrain China’s freedom of action; and
    2. Persistent territorialization of the SCS despite Beijing’s simultaneous diplomatic engagement with ASEAN.
