The South China Sea: The Next Global Conflict?

Welcome to the June 2021 issue of The Diplomat. This month, our cover story examines the likelihood that a minor incident in the South China Sea could spark a global cataclysm as devastating as the First World War. We also take stock of developments in Hong Kong a year after the national security law, evaluate the possibilities for Afghanistan after the looming U.S. withdrawal, and probe the gaps in prevailing narratives on the future of China-U.S. competition. And, of course, we offer a range of reporting, analysis, and opinion from across the region.
