The Law of the Sea and the Polar Regions: Interactions between Global and Regional Regimes (Publications on Ocean Development)

The Law of the Sea and the Polar Regions: Interactions between Global and Regional Regimes examines regional regimes for the Arctic and Antarctic on among others science, maritime security, marine-protected areas, fisheries and shipping, by means of common research questions; thus enabling overall synthesis and identification of differences, similarities, and trends. The Law Of The Sea And The Polar Regions: Interactions Between Global And Regional Regimes Examines Regional Regimes For The Arctic And Antarctic On Among Others Science, Maritime Security, Marine-protected Areas, Fisheries & Shipping, By Means Of Common Research Questions; Thus Enabling Overall Synthesis And Identification Of Differences, Similarities, And Trends.

The Law of the Sea and the Polar Regions: Interactions between Global and Regional Regimes analyzes of the contemporary law of the sea and related areas of international law in Antarctica and the Arctic, with a particular focus upon the interaction of global and regional regimes. The global component of the international law of the sea - principally the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea - applies to the entire marine domain in both polar regions but explicitly requires regional implementation or acknowledges its usefulness. This volume critically examines regional regimes for the Arctic and Antarctic on science, maritime security, fisheries and shipping by means of common research questions; thus enabling an overall synthesis and identification of trends, differences and similarities.
