Introduction:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

The South China Sea has attracted considerable attention among politicians, journalists and scholars since it has become a contested maritime space. Most works concentrate on conflicts and negotiations to resolve the ensuing issues. In this paper a cultural theory will be applied to stress the importance of conceptions of space found in different cultures. The South China Sea is defined as \u201cmediterranean\u201d. By comparing it to other maritime spaces, like the Baltic and the Mediterranean Sea, lessons will be drawn from the \u201clongue dur\u00e9e<\/em>\u201d of history, as analysed by French historian Fernand Braudel.<\/p>\n
