China Maritime Studies Institute Conferences
The China Maritime Studies Institute (CMSI) has conducted conferences since 2005. Conferences have addressed a range of issues in Chinese maritime development, encompassing both competitive and also cooperative themes. This series of conferences has directly resulted in the publication of four scholarly books, dozens of published academic articles, and multiple briefings for key U.S. decision-makers and relevant staffs.
