In The Poseidon Project, David Bosco tells the story of how rulers, merchants, navies, environmentalists, and activists have struggled to craft rules for the oceans. From the Dutch challenge to the Portuguese in the 17th century to the current turmoil in the South China Sea, it tracks the tension between efforts to control maritime space and the idea that the oceans should be unowned and open to all.
