Research Abstract |
The present research has examined the effects of the recent trend in international society to strengthen ocean management on the traditional freedom of the seas, focusing on the management measures taken by coastal States in its exclusive economic zone (EEZ). A Study of State practice has revealed that most states have implemented ocean management though exercise of rights recognized under UNCLOS, or at least justify their measures by reference to certain specific rights under UNCLOS. However, UNCLOS does not give coastal States the general power to spatially coordinate different uses of the ocean in its EEZ, and ocean management in this form contains an element that is alien to the current framework for the legal order for the oceans. Further developments should be assessed in light of UNCLOS as they may potentially influence a structural change in the law of the sea.
