With the oceans being used for trade, being exploited for fisheries and mineral resources extraction, and becoming the focal point for security crises, the legal regime regulating the rights and responsibilities of nations in their use of the world's oceans has long been a crucial part of international law. The United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea comprehensively defined the parameters of the law of the sea in 1982, and since the Convention was concluded it has seen considerable development. This Oxford Handbook provides a comprehensive and original analysis of its current debates and controversies, both theoretical and practical. Written by thirty nine expert contributors, the Handbook sets out how the law of the sea has developed, and the challenges it is currently facing. It is an invaluable and thought-provoking resource for scholar, students, and practitioners of the law of the sea; It includes List of Illustrations, Table of Cases, Table of Treaties, List of Abbreviations, Notes on Contributors, Chapters, and Index Pages etc ; Table of Contents: 1: Historical Development of the Law of the Sea, Tullio Treves 2: The 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, Robin Churchill 3:Between Stability and Change in the Law of the Sea Convention: Subsequent Practice, Treaty Modification, and Regime Interaction, Irina Buga 4: Baselines, Coatler G Lathrop 5: The Territorial Sea and Contiguous Zone, John E Noyes 6: International Straits, Donald R Rothwell 7: The Archipelagic Regime, Tara Davenport 8: The Exclusive Economic Zone, Gemma Andreone 9: The Continental Shelf, Ted L McDorman 10: The High Seas, Douglas Guilfoyle 11: The Deep Seabed, Michael W Lodge 12: Maritime Boundary Delimitation, Malcolm D Evans 13: Port and Coastal States, Erik J Molenaar 14: Flag States, Richard A Barnes 15: Landlocked and Geographically Disadvantaged States, Helmut Tuerk 16: The United Nations: A Practitioner's Perspective, Hans Corell 17: Law of the Sea Convention Institutions, James Harrison 18: Courts and Tribunals: The ICJ, ITLOS, and Arbitral Tribunals, Bernard H Oxman 19: The International Maritime Organization, Aldo Chircop 20: Regional Fisheries Management Organisations, Rosemary Rayfuse 21: Integrated Oceans Management: A New Frontier in Marine Environmental Protection, Karen N Scott 22: Marine Living Resources, Nele Matz-Luck and Johannes Fuchs 23: Science and the International Regulation of Marine Pollution, Elizabeth A Kirk 24: Navigational Rights and Freedoms, Yoshifumi Tanaka 25: Marine Scientific Research, Tim Stephens and Donald R Rothwell 26: Maritime Security, Natalie Klein 27: The Mediterranean Sea, Irini Papanicolopulu 28: The South China Sea, Keyuan Zou 29: North-East Atlantic and the North Sea, Ronán Long 30: The Caribbean Sea and Gulf of Mexico, David Freestone and Clive Schofield 31: The Indian Ocean and the Law of the Sea: A Work in Progress, Alex G Oude Elferink 32: Polar Oceans and Law of the Sea, Karen N Scott and David L Vanderzwaag 33: Conserving Marine Biodiversity in Areas Beyond National Jurisdiction: Co-Evolution and Interaction with the Law of the Sea, Robin M Warner 34:Warming Waters and Souring Seas: Climate Change and Ocean Acidification, Tim Stephens 35:Threatened Species and Vulnerable Marine Ecosystems, Edward J Goodwin 36:Marine Bioprospecting, Joanna Mossop 37: Piracy, Anna Petrig 38: Military Operations, James Kraska 39: Charting the Future for the Law of the Sea, Donald R Rothwell, Alex G Oude Elferink, Karen N Scott, and Tim Stephens; Author Information Edited by Donald R.
