مضيق ملقا و الصراع الدولي في شرق آسيا في ظل تنامي الدور الصيني في العالم

الملخص EN

This study aims to highlight the growing geostrategic importance of Malacca Strait, and to analyze the axes of competition and conflict between the main regional and international powers in that region, and determining what implications does that have over stability in East Asia and the international system from a realistic perspective.

The study concludes that the actors’ behavior is governed by political realism.

While the emerging regional system appears liberal in form, it is in fact realistic in substance.

Therefore, in light of the growing global interest in the vicinity of the broader strait, the Indo-Pacific region, the conflict of interests there, especially between the United States and China, will be a determining factor in structuring the international system, and may pave the way for the establishment of a multipolar international system.
