“Rocks and Rules: America and the South China Sea”

What: The Center for the Study of Democracy and the Patuxent Partnership are pleased to welcome Gregory B. Poling to deliver a public lecture on US-China relations and maritime policy in the South China Sea. Mr. Poling, an alum of St. Mary’s College of Maryland, is a senior fellow for Southeast Asia and director of the Asia Maritime Transparency Initiative at the Center for Strategic and International Studies.

According to Mr. Poling, the South China Sea is home to the most complex territorial and maritime disputes in the world. He states that it is one of the most likely places for US-China competition to turn violent. The United States has long-standing interests in this waterway, as does the rest of the international community. Mr. Poling will explore those interests and how Washington, alongside allies and partners, can secure them while avoiding conflict.
