The 1982 Convention on the Law of the Sea, the overarching governance framework for the world's oceans, has been signed and ratified by 156 countries and the European Community, but not by the United States. Washington treats most of the convention and the 1994 agreement on its implementation as customary international law, but it remains among only a handful of countries, including Libya and North Korea, that have yet to formally accede to the convention.
The balance of power is now shifting in Washington, making prospects for U.S. Senate consent to the convention in 2009 more likely than ever. Written by a leading expert on ocean governance, this report offers a fresh appraisal of the convention's merits and pitfalls in light of the current geopolitical seascape and examines whether it is in U.S. strategic interests to now officially join the convention.

The National Interest and the Law of the Sea
For those as intrigued by this history as I am, Zhu Liping's book is an essential read. It is so informative on many levels, and not too long as well.
Idaho City and the Boise Basin was such a booming Chinatown with a huge Chinese population in the 1870s-90s, and then by 1910, they were pretty much all gone. What a fascinating period of Chinese-American history. Also does a good job in painting a picture of Chinese not as innocent victims but of residents very much welling to take on "western violence" in order to preserve or uphold frontier justice.
Last chapter "Exodus" also tells a riveting story of successful business Loke Kee and his decision to move himself and his entire family (multiple generations) back to China. His children, as a result, spend their lives growing up in China (soon-to-be taken over by Japan, and then the Communists) wishing to return to Idaho.
These stories need to be translated to cinema.
