商品簡介
Antunes, an officer in the Portuguese Navy, analyzes legal, political, and technical aspects of the law of the sea in this book/CD-ROM work based on a thesis submitted in 2002 for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Durham, UK. Drawing on jurisprudence and state practice, he attempts to develop an understanding that reflects the interdisciplinary nature of the subject. He examines the delimitation provisions of the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (LOSC) within the context of three decades of developments, then attempts to deconstruct the delimitation problem into three core issues: the concept of maritime delimitation, the technical definitions of boundary-lines, and the normative standards applicable to maritime delimitation. He then examines the legal process of the determination of maritime boundary lines in detail. The CD-ROM contains maps. Annotation c2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
