Outline of Research at the Start |
Disputes over jurisdiction and maritime entitlements that have important implications for navigational rights persist in the region, despite the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS). This begs an important question: Why do the domestic maritime regimes of many littoral Southeast Asian states related to freedom of navigation diverge from UNCLOS?
