Defining the Blue Economy / Smith-Godfrey, S   Journal Article
Smith-Godfrey, S Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract Oceans are increasingly gaining in importance in terms of enabling international trade via linking sellers and buyers. The behaviour patterns of such linking enablers on the oceans are receiving more attention from a regulatory and economic perspective as the relationship between land and ocean evolves in its role and importance. The “Blue Economy” as a concept finds its origin against this background. A literature review is undertaken to analyse an appropriate definition for the Blue Economy. These definitions are analysed in terms of the minimum criteria which are necessary for a Blue Economy. The paper also attempts to structure various types of activities which are associated with ocean services. It is done with a view to identify what one may perceive as the focus areas for the growth of the Blue Economy.

Designing law and policy for the health and resilience of marine and coastal ecosystems—lessons from (and for) Aotearoa New Zeal / Macpherson, Elizabeth (et.al)   Journal Article
Macpherson, Elizabeth (et.al) Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract Ecosystem-based approaches to marine management, which integrate marine law and policy across sectors, communities, and scales, are increasingly advocated for in international policy debates and scholarly literature. We highlight critical and timely opportunities in Aotearoa New Zealand’s evolving legal context to support an ecosystem-based approach across fisheries regulation, biodiversity conservation, environmental effects management, and Indigenous or customary rights. Given the scale of proposed law reform affecting the ocean in Aotearoa New Zealand, there are important global lessons to be elucidated from (and for) the Aotearoa New Zealand experience, revealing the potential for law to center the health of ocean ecosystems and related people in integrated marine decision making.

Disputed islands of the Indian ocean: a potential danger to regional peace / Khalid, Mohammed   Journal Article
Khalid, Mohammed Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2013.
Summary/Abstract Earth is home to thousands of islands and it is very difficult to know their actual number in the world. More than 600 million people live on islands and one in every ten people on earth is an islander. These islands have isolated individual ecosystems and provide ideal venues for scientific studies of the earth environment. They have typically small populations and their small economies make vulnerable to outside pressure.

Seas, oceans and cosmologies in Southeast Asia / Andaya, Barbara Watson   Journal Article
Andaya, Barbara Watson Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract This article discusses the changing spirit world of maritime communities in Southeast Asia by differentiating ‘oceans’ from ‘seas’ and by linking historical evidence to modern anthropological studies. Since the lives of seagoing peoples are fraught with unpredictability, propitiation of local sea spirits was a traditional means of ensuring good fortune and protection. As long-distance voyages expanded in the early modern period, the global reach of the world religions, extending beyond familiar seas into the more extensive ocean environment, held out particular appeal. Not only were the gods, deities and saints attached to larger religious systems themselves ocean travellers; in contrast to the unpredictability of indigenous spirits, they were always amenable to requests for help, even when the suppliant was far from home waters. At the same time, as world religions were incorporated into indigenous cosmologies, maritime peoples gained greater agency in negotiating relationships with the local spirits that still wield power in Southeast Asian seas.

Studying the Asian Ocean-Sea / Mukherjee, Rila   Journal Article
Mukherjee, Rila Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract This article urges a rethinking of South Asian cosmography to counter our notion of seascapes lying outside notions of sovereignty, territoriality and technologies of control. While seas have emerged as central to economic and political security for most of the worlds’ states, this is seen as a comparatively new phenomenon because South Asia’s territoriality has always been seen as land-based. The emphasis on the modern has resulted in a neglect of South Asia’s rich tradition of maritime expressiveness and generates a ‘maritime blindness’ affecting policy formulation, despite works on seafaring which trace diverse maritime perceptions from Pali and Sanskrit literature, sculptures, coins, paintings and epigraphy.
