Underwater Seascapes
While the European Landscape Convention adopted in Florence in 2000 by the European Council offers a public-action framework through a normative definition, the marine and submarine dimensions of landscapes are attracting growing interest from researchers worldwide. At a time when marine-conservation objectives are strongly endorsed by the Convention on Biological Diversity, the French Marine Protected Areas Agency, a public institution under the governance of the French Ministry of the Environment, has gathered prominent experts to draft the very first interdisciplinary overview of underwater seascapes, so as to initiate and lend direction to a wider reflection on this emerging research topic.
Droit international de l'environnement
Le droit international de l'environnement a connu un développement rapide à partir de la deuxième moitié du XXème siècle. Au cours des quarante dernières années, des centaines de textes internationaux et communautaires ont vu le jour, aussi bien pour préserver les éléments de la biosphère - sols, eaux continentales, océan, atmosphère, biodiversité que pour résoudre les problèmes affectant plusieurs éléments, posés par les substances et déchets toxiques, les radiations et le transport de ces produits. Ces sources complexes sont à l'origine des nuisances et des pollutions transfrontières. Cet ouvrage a pour but la présentation et l'étude de cette importante somme de di...

Yearbook Maritime Law
I. The importance of legal questions related to the sea is obvious to everyone. It is hardly surprising that the subjects that make up international current events illustrate the leading role played by maritime affairs. Indeed, it is no coincidence that three quarters of the earth's surface is covered by oceans. Territorial seas, exclusive economic zones, exploitation of the seabed, fishing, transport, insurance, collision, and pollution raise many unresolved questions. On the other hand, the contrast of this importance with the modest attention that existing periodical publications merit must be underscored. Without undervaluing these publications, there has been a need for some time to create a vehicle of common expression, based on three central tenets: interdisciplinary framework, tendency towards uniform law, and both a theoretical and practical approach. a. A framework of interdisciplinary nature seems to be relevant as it is desirable to overcome the artificial separation between public and private law.

The Politics of Fisheries in the European Union
In analyzing the fisheries sector this book explores key issues relating to the EU polity as a whole, including the distribution of power, the representation of interests at national and transnational levels, the allocation of budgets and resources, and the EU's place as an actor on the global stage. In this way Lequesne uses the Common Fisheries Policy to provide a varied illustration of European policy in action. The scholarship is based on high quality primary research, carefully conducted and articulated. The result is a fascinating insight into the fisheries sector which reveals broader characteristics of the EU.
Protecting the Oceans Beyond National Jurisdiction
Knowledge of the marine environment beyond national jurisdiction and its unique biodiversity is still developing. Simultaneously, traditional uses of these areas including fishing and shipping, are intensifying and new uses are emerging such as bio-prospecting for marine genetic resources and climate change mitigation activities. This volume examines the threats to the marine environment beyond national jurisdiction from existing and emerging human uses and the adequacy of current international law provisions to protect this major part of the global environment. An analysis of key provisions in the 1982 United Nations Law of the Sea Convention and complementary principles of international en...
