Report and Proceedings of the Meeting on Fisheries Exploitation Within the Exclusive Economic Zones of English-Speaking Caribbean Countries
Part I of the volume summarizes the discussions of the main issues that arose from the national reports and the technical papers presented at the Meeting. It contains the conclusions and recommendations adopted by the meeting. The principal recommendation was policy guidelines for obtaining maximum sustainable benefits from the exploitation of the fishery resources within the EEZs. In this regard, governments were requested to review and refine their national policies for the development and management of the various fishery types within their EEZ and prepare comprehensive management and development plans for these fisheries. Part II contains the national reports of the countries represented at the Meeting, and the technical papers prepared for and presented at the Meeting. The topics covered by these documents include policy issues, legal regime for EEZ management, status of the resources, case studies on the living resources of the EEZ of Trinidad and Tobago and of the OECS countries, and methodological and operational aspects of statistical monitoring systems on the Caribbean.

Sustainable Development in the Caribbean
This document contains the conference papers which aimed to design appropriate incentives or disincentives to encourage sustainable development for three key areas: policy-enabling measures, price change policies, and policies directed at the needs of the resource user in Caribbean countries. Papers also cover ideas which would enable these countries to cope with, and respond to, international pressures which are limiting their capacity to design, implement, and regulate sustainable development. These pressures affect policies which concern international agencies and institutions regarding such issues as terms of trade, debt financing, and policing the unsustainable practices of multinational corporations, and other countries.
Maritime Issues in the South China Sea
South China Sea (SCS) issues are complex and dynamic, ranging from historic claims to present day military occupation, from military security to regional stability, from rhetorical appeasements to national interests, from intraregional competition to extraregional involvement. The submissions made in 2009 by several Southeast Asian states to the United Nations Commission on the Limits of the Continental Shelf (CLCS) respecting outer limits of extended continental shelves beyond 200 nautical miles in the South China Sea resulted in renewed attention to the maritime disputes over the insular features and the waters of the South China Sea among several claimant States. Questions have resurfaced about the future of cooperation in the region. Furthermore, the improvement of cross-Strait relations between Taiwan and China after 2008 has added a new element to the evolution of South China Sea issues. This book describes these recent developments in depth and provides an examination of possible future developments in the South China Sea. The articles in this book were originally published as special sections in Ocean Development & International Law.
Joint Development of Hydrocarbon Deposits in the Law of the Sea
This book examines the concept and purpose of joint development agreements of offshore hydrocarbon deposits from the perspective of public international law and the law of the sea, taking into consideration and extensively reviewing State practice concerning seabed activities in disputed maritime areas and when hydrocarbon deposits extend across maritime boundaries. It distinguishes between agreements signed before and after the delimitation of maritime boundaries and analyzes the relevance of natural resources or unitization clauses included in maritime delimitation agreements. It also takes into consideration the relation between these resources and maritime delimitation and analyzes all t...
Management of Large Pelagic Fisheries in CARICOM Countries
Large pelagic fish are important to the small-scale, commercial and recreational fisheries in many Caribbean Community countries. As most are transboundary, their management requires collaboration among countries in the context of international fisheries agreements. The FAO Technical Cooperation Programme project described in this report sought to assist CARICOM countries in formulating an approach to the development and management of large pelagic fisheries. The project compiled and reviewed a wide range of material, including status of resources, fishery harvest and post-harvest sectors, status of national and regional management initiatives, and the extent to which countries are engaged in international management activities such as those undertaken by the International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT).
