Abstract
The purpose of this thesis is to examine the South China Sea dispute and to analyze why the dispute
has yet to escalate, as well as the strategic importance of the South China Sea dispute in relation
to international peace and security. This thesis will also study possible solutions and effects on
both the region and the international community. It is argued that the South East Asian countries
have continued to make valuable efforts at finding multilateral solutions to the dispute, China has
resisted these efforts by demanding its own bilateral negotiation process. The Spratly Islands and
the Paracel Islands, both located in the South China Sea, has become an obstacle to creating
multilateral security in the region
