About the Authors
  • Many disputed maritime areas exist around the world. Often, the States concerned have not been able to reach agreement on how to, for example, regulate commercial activities within such areas. Conflict regularly arises between claimant coastal States if one of them acts unilaterally, such as in the South China Sea. This book examines the rights and obligations States have under international law concerning disputed maritime areas, in the first comprehensive treatment of this highly topical and pressing issue. It analyses conventional law, general international law, judicial decisions, State practice, and academic opinions that shine a light on the international legal framework that is applicable in disputed maritime areas. Proposing practical solutions on how to interpret the relevant international law, the book discusses the extent to which it currently provides clear guidance to States, and how international courts and tribunals have dealt with cases related to activities in disputed maritime areas.

    • The first systematic overview of the legal issues surrounding disputed marine areas
    • A timely book as a number of current conflicts await resolution
    • Addresses legal and regulatory aspects including sovereignty, jurisdiction and conflict

    Reviews & endorsements

    '… this book is amongst the first to focus exclusively on the general legal framework applicable to disputed maritime areas, with particular emphasis on acts of unilateralism and their compliance with both the LOSC and customary international law. This book will no doubt be an interesting read for researchers and practitioners of the subject area.' Gülay C. Firatli, The International Journal of Marine and Coastal Law
