“…If assertiveness is understood from this light, then it is worth highlighting ways in which China has displayed assertive posture in South China Sea. More so, though this paper concurs with the assertions from scholars that most of Chinese actions in the South China have been 'reactive', 'defensive' or even 'constructive' (see Fravel, 2011;Swaine and Fravel, 2011;Raditio, 2019), the magnitude and scope of it is quiet massive given that all the claimants lay overlapping and conflicting claims to some of or all the islands and can undertake any permanent action to maintain their sovereignty as one of the requirements in international law (Turcsanyi, 2018).…”

“…However, the difference is that China's claims use a historical background, while other countries use a geographical location that refers to the International Law of the Sea Convention (UNCLOS). China's claim is the nine-dash line as historical background (Raditio et al, 2019).…”

This study aims to analyze the process of resolving the Natuna sea dispute between Indonesia and China to obtain their respective sovereignty. The Natuna Sea is one of the outermost waters in Indonesia, which is unilaterally claimed by China with a nine-dash line claim or the South China Sea. This claim overlaps with Indonesia's Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) in the Natuna Sea. As a result of this claim, many Chinese fishers are free to go in and out of catching fish in Natuna Waters with illegal fishing status. The method used in this research was qualitative and descriptive research. The data collection technique was based on a literature study and was strengthened by interviewees. The study results show that this dispute resolution process is carried out through two approaches, namely the international law approach and the diplomatic approach. Because through these two approach strategies, this dispute resolution can be achieved very comprehensively. The legal approach was taken by submitting a Diplomatic Protest Note to China, while the diplomatic approach was taken by Indonesia and other ASEAN countries within the ASEAN WAY framework.

Referring to the IR paradigms, the researchers highlight, for example, the historical shifts in China’s international performance (Tang, 2008) and its transformation from Mao Zedong’ s offensive realist approach to a defensive realist state when Deng Xiaoping assumed office (Raditio, 2019, p. 24).…”

This article investigates the China–Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), which involves a whole package of multiple cooperative initiatives aimed to accelerate connectivity via land routes and boost Sino-Pakistani collaboration. While channelling Chinese power and interests, this corridor, being a key part of the Belt and Road Initiative, may significantly affect the security landscape in conflict-prone South Asia, and the economic, political and social dynamics within Pakistan. Being a fragile state with multiple domestic challenges and asymmetric position vis-à-vis China, Pakistan is a valuable source for regional power game and China’s aspiration analysis. The comprehensive evaluation of economic corridors’ multidimensional impact on volatile regions with poor socio-economic background, contested political power and high-security risk fills a much-needed gap in contemporary security studies. We contend that CPEC may bring stabilising and destabilising results; yet, if certain conditions are not met, over the long term, the latter are likely to outweigh the former due to the various aspects of internal, bilateral and regional character. To evaluate the corridor’s multifaceted implications, firstly, we conceptualise CPEC within the selected international relations paradigms, and secondly, we empirically refer to our assumptions.
