The Law

Although it is not yet clear whether the Third United Nations Conference on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS III) will succeed in its task of adopting a “convention dealing with all matters relating to the law of the sea,” the drafters of the Informal Composite Negotiating Text (ICNT) produced at the conference’s sixth session decided to incorporate proposals on the final clauses of a future convention in the ICNT. Indeed, even if the conference were to reach consensus overnight on all outstanding substantive issues, problems relating to these final clauses could easily delay—or even jeopardize—the adoption of a new convention: they involve, after all, very complex political and legal questions. It is therefore only right that the conference agreed not to leave these problems to the very end of the negotiating process.

Distant Water Fishing

The Fishery Agreement concluded in 1992 between the European Economic Communities and the Republic oj Argentina provides an excellent example of the negotiating process leading to the conclusion of a treaty in the field of international fisheries. The Agreement shows how widely diverging interests and seemingly opposing views can be reconciled by two parties prepared to negotiate constructively and to develop a new generation of agreements. This article should be considered against the background formed by developments in the law of the sea. Particularly in the fields of the protection of the environment, the administration of resources and development policy, and the diverging interests that coastal states and ‘distant water fishing states’ have in these matters. To place the conclusion of this Treaty in the appropriate context, an overview of the structural and economic conditions of the fishery sector in Argentina and the European Communities will be given. Finally, the innovative technicalities of the new treaty will be discussed against this background.

AbstractEtt intressant drag i folkrättens utveckling efter andra världskriget har varit den väldiga ökningen av antalet mellanfolkliga organ. Me-dan mellankrigstidens folkrättsarbeten bara redovisade en handfull internationella organisationer, kan dagens specialister pÅ den nya folkrättsdisciplin, som sysslar med »the law of international institutions«, räkna upp över hundratalet dylika organ, varav över ett dussin i Europa. Bland de europeiska organisationerna brukar man skilja mellan tvÅ huvudkategorier, nämligen Å ena sidan samarbetsorgan sãsom OEEC och dess efterträdare OECD, EuroparÅdet och Västeuropeiska Unionen, samt Å andra sidan integrationsorgan vartill räknas den Europeiska kol- och stÅlgemenskapen (Communauté Européenne du Charbon et de l'Acier - CECA), Europeiska atomenergigemenskapen (Euratom) och den Europeiska ekonomiska gemenskapen (i Skandinavien i allmänhet Återgiven med förkortningen EEC efter den engelska termen European Economic Community).

The Law

Prior to the adoption of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) in 1982, fisheries played only a minor role in the economies of most developing countries. Fisheries resources in waters adjacent to the coasts of many developing countries were largely exploited by fishers from the developed nations of the world who had the requisite technologies for deep-sea fishing. These technologies were lacking in developing countries, resulting in sub-optimal marine fishing. However, the adoption of UNLCOS in 1982 introduced novel principles for the governance of marine fisheries. It was widely believed that these innovations would enhance and stabilise fishing rights, redistribute income from marine fisheries to the advantage of developing countries and reduce the incidents of international conflicts concerning fishing rights. This paper critically examines the various ways through which UNCLOS has enhanced and stabilised fishing rights for the benefit of all States, especially developing countries. It asserts that due to various challenges that continue to confront developing countries with respect to the utilisation of marine fisheries, the benefits anticipated to accrue to them under UNCLOS have remained elusive throughout the thirty years since the Convention was adopted. The paper makes suggestions for the improvement of fisheries resources utilisation among developing countries.
