OverviewThe UN Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) entered into force in November 1994. This insightful book offers in-depth appraisals of the contributions of jurisprudence to this major achievement of international law, tracing the impact that courts and tribunals have had on the development and clarification of various provisions of UNCLOS over the past quarter-century. Exploring the most pressing issues and recent developments concerning the oceans, leading authors discuss the influence of jurisprudence in fields ranging from fisheries to navigation and deep seabed mining, paying particular attention to the impact of dispute settlement in the law of the sea. While many questions remain unresolved, the specific case studies in this book show that courts and tribunals have made significant contributions to key legal concepts, as well as filling regulatory gaps left by UNCLOS. This authoritative and timely work will be of great interest to students and scholars working in public international law, and most particularly law of the sea. Its attention to statute will greatly benefit practitioners including judges, counsels and consultants in international litigation, and its practical approach will capture individuals working for relevant international organizations and NGOs.

The present volume fills this lacuna, illustrating how judges and arbitrators have shaped the law and interpreted often ambiguous provisions of UNCLOS in important and controversial fields such as fisheries, islands, deep seabed mining, the genuine link , hot pursuit, and historic rights. This fine work by an international team of experts throws light on topical issues of the law of the sea and on the role of international judges and arbitrators.' -- Tullio Treves, Former Judge, The International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea Author InformationEdited by Øystein Jensen, Senior Research Fellow, the Fridtjof Nansen Institute, Norway and Associate Professor of Law, University of South-Eastern Norway Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
