9780415038164: The Development of Integrated Sea Use Management (Routledge Advances in Maritime Research)

Synopsis

Fisheries, recreation, transportation, mineral extraction ... the world's seas are subject to an incredibly diverse range of uses. Hitherto these have generally been considered on a use by use basis, with a multiplicity of separate organisations involved in government, private and voluntary sectors. The Development of Integrated Sea Use Management looks at the moves towards integrated management of these conflicting uses and of their environmental impacts. Three key starting points for integrated management are identified, namely, the theme of maritime boundary delimitation which governs the allocation of sea space among states; the management of individual uses, which remains a cornerstone upon which integrated management can be built; and the regional basis of integrated ocean management. The content ranges widely over detailed case studies within each sphere, in both developed and developing countries, and from coastal estuaries to the deep ocean.

Review

"Scholarly and academic in its presentation, the study is one for specialists and those with a serious interest in such subjects as the international law of the sea, the thorny problem of national maritime boundaries, management of individual uses of the sea, and ocean management in its deeper, detailed aspects." -"Lloyds List
