Bücher der Reihe The Ashgate International Law Series

Taking the North-East Atlantic ocean as an example of regional practice, this book addresses the dual approach to ocean governance in international law. It examines the interaction between zonal and integrated management approaches and the conservation of marine living resources and marine biological diversity.

Challenging the main ground for resorting to force, namely self-defence under Article 51 of the United Nations' Charter, on a number of issues, this book examines the wider context, including comparable Security Council resolutions in historic situations as well as modern instances where force has been used, such as against Iraq in 2003.
