Summary/Abstract |
THE UNITED NATIONS General Assembly Resolution "Transforming Our World: The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development," adopted on September 25, 2015, defined 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and 169 targets. Achieving those objectives, which will be pursued by "all countries and interested stakeholders," should promote human prosperity and at the same time "secure the planet" [1]. A special target area, SDG 14, is devoted to the world's oceans and contains the phrase: "Goal 14: Conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources for sustainable development." It contains seven core objectives. The inclusion of maritime issues on the list of topics of special importance for life-sustaining human activity reflects the desire of the international community to strike a balance between developing maritime activity (economic, scientific research, military) and conserving the marine environment amid the growing impact of human actions.

Summary/Abstract |
The author looks in close-up at the reciprocal effect of economic and political factors that encouraged China to intensify its maritime activities. He examines trends in the principal industries of China's maritime economy (ports, sea transportation, shipbuilding, fisheries and aquaculture, and offshore oil and gas production). He retraces the development of territorial disputes at sea in which China is involved, and shows that the sea is turning into a major area of conflict between competing Chinese and American interests.
