This volume investigates the evolving dynamics of maritime power in the twenty-first century, specifically focusing on the tension between cooperative security frameworks and the resurgence of great power competition at sea. Edited by Peter Dutton, Robert S. Ross, and Øystein Tunsjø, the work compiles contributions from a diverse group of international scholars and security experts. The text examines how geography, national security objectives, and international law influence the naval strategies of major powers, including the United States, China, India, and Russia. By analyzing both traditional war-fighting capabilities and non-traditional security challenges, the authors provide a comprehensive framework for understanding modern naval rivalry.
