Arctic exception in the law of the sea convention: a contribution to safer navigation in the northwest passage? / Bartenstein, Kristin   Journal Article
Bartenstein, Kristin Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2011.
Summary/Abstract This article examines the so-called "Arctic exception," Article 234 of the 1982 UN Convention on the Law of the Sea. Article 234 is intended to give the coastal state of ice-covered sea areas the necessary powers to prevent, reduce, and control vessel source pollution, which poses a particular risk to the highly sensitive Arctic marine environment. The aim of this article is to present a thorough interpretation of Article 234 in order to eventually evaluate the provision's significance for Arctic navigation, specifically in the Canadian Arctic and the Northwest Passage.

Culture and Diplomacy: Maritime Cultural Heritage of the Western Indian Ocean / Ray, Himanshu Prabha   Journal Article
Ray, Himanshu Prabha Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract The article argues that UNESCO’s 1972 World Heritage Convention provides a global platform for projecting not only India’s maritime cultural heritage but also building bridges and collaborative networks with other Indian Ocean littoral countries for the promotion of shared cultural practices and traditional knowledge systems of the Indian Ocean. Unfortunately, this collaborative research aspect of the World Heritage Convention has yet to be tapped for nominating and inscribing transnational heritage or cultural routes across the Ocean. This is despite the fact that India was the founder member of the intergovernmental organisation, Indian Ocean Rim Association, one of whose thrust areas relates to promoting cultural heritage on the UNESCO platform. Given India’s rich maritime past, there is an urgent need to implement measures to establish academic networks with littoral countries for not only creating awareness of the maritime cultural heritage of the Indian Ocean but also harnessing linkages between maritime communities for building a culturally diverse but harmonious future.

Regulating Shipping in the Arctic Ocean: An Analysis of State Practice / Hartmann, Jacques   Journal Article
Hartmann, Jacques Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract The United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (LOSC) permits state parties to establish an Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) 200 nautical miles from their coast. Coastal states have exclusive jurisdiction over resources within the EEZ, but navigational and other high seas freedoms continue to exist. A significant number of states have, however, enacted legislation that departs from the LOSC, interfering with the navigational rights and freedoms of other states. This article analzses this development with a specific focus on the Arctic. It investigates the powers of Arctic coastal states to regulate shipping in the EEZ and thereby navigation in the Arctic Ocean. It adds to the existing literature by providing an analysis of state practice, suggesting that despite uncertainty concerning the interpretation of the LOSC Article 234 and the right to exercise legislative jurisdiction over ice-covered waters, a not insignificant number of states have claimed jurisdiction in their own EEZ beyond the rights granted in the LOSC, and are therefore not in a position to object to extensive jurisdictional claims in the Arctic.

Russia’s Annexation of Crimea and the Passage of Ships Through Kerch Strait: a law of the sea perspective / Schatz, Valentin J; Koval, Dmytro   Journal Article
Schatz, Valentin J Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract This article discusses potential Ukrainian rights of passage through Kerch Strait against the background of restrictions on passage imposed by Russia since the annexation of Crimea, taking into account the ongoing arbitral proceedings under Annex VII of the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea. The article addresses first the question of the status of Kerch Strait and the Sea of Azov under the international law of the sea. In a second step, the article deals with the issue of potential Ukrainian passage rights through Kerch Strait based on the legal status discussed in the first section as well as relevant bilateral treaties between Ukraine and Russia.

The West Side Boys: military navigation in the Sierra Leone civil war / Utas, Mats; Jörgel, Magnus   Journal Article
Utas, Mats Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2008.
Summary/Abstract The West Side Boys were one of several military actors in the Sierra Leonean civil war (1991-2002). A splinter group of the army, the WSB emerged as a key player in 1999-2000. In most Western media accounts, the WSB appeared as nothing more than renegade, anarchistic bandits, devoid of any trace of long-term goals. By contrast, this article aims to explain how the WSB used well-devised military techniques in the field; how their history and military training within the Sierra Leone army shaped their notion of themselves and their view of what they were trying to accomplish; and, finally, how military commanders and politicians employed the WSB as a tactical instrument in a larger map of military and political strategies. It is in the politics of a military economy that this article is grounded
