The conservation and sustainable use of oceans, seas and marine resources has been declared by the United Nations as one of 17 priority Sustainable Development Goals. At present, most of the maritime states are striving to improve the efficiency of their use of marine resources, including sea space. In particular, the European Union is implementing a number of projects related to the implementation of marine spatial planning (MSP) tools. The Baltic Sea is considered as a pilot region, where a pan-Baltic coordinated MSP plan has been developed to provide for sustainable development and blue growth in the marine and coastal economy. The Russian Federation is one of the Baltic countries, but the MSP procedure at the state level does not have institutional and regulatory support, which requires the elimination of gaps and additional development of the maritime management system. The laws of the organization and development of the general theory of management are used in this study. An Integrated Management Model for sustainable marine and coastal use is proposed as a tool for ensuring blue growth, including four interrelated elements (specific management functions), namely “Integrated Coastal Zone Management”, “Marine Spatial Planning”, “Management of Marine Macroregion” and “Ocean Governance”. Their functional content and interaction mechanisms are discussed in order to implement an integral approach to marine use. The vertical structure of the proposed integral model includes three levels corresponding to the federal and regional levels of government and the level of municipal self-governance. The use of the integral model should help accelerate the process of introducing and using MSP instruments in the process of strategic planning in the socio-economic development of the Russian coastal territories.

The emergence of the concept of sustainable development was caused by the need to solve global problems, some of which pose real threats to the existence of mankind. Conceptually, the “blue economy” is a promising direction for the development of cooperation between states and regional organizations of the Azov-Black Sea region, as well as the European Union. The practical application of tools for its implementation in the EU predetermines the need for additional study and evaluation of this experience. Marine spatial planning is one of the main instruments for realizing the “blue economy” and “blue growth”. The article examines aspects of its development in the Russian Federation, including the Azov-Black Sea region. In general, the use of marine spatial planning, together with the introduction and dissemination of data collection and continuous monitoring systems, leads to the formation of a new format for marine resource management. To create an equitable system of distribution, use, conservation and restoration of resources and spaces of the Black and Azov Seas, it is necessary to involve all stakeholders and maintain a balance of their interests. The specificity of the Azov-Black Sea region is expressed primarily in the presence of a number of unique physical and geographical factors. It predetermines the need for additional assessment of specific economic, environmental, logistic and other conditions of the region in order to prepare rational decisions with the participation of stakeholders. To make informed decisions, it is advisable for the Russian Federation to expand the scope of its participation in scientific research and discussions on this topic, including in the development of international documents regulating this type of activity

New Infrastructure

We are currently in what might be termed a “third phase” of ocean enclosures around the world. This phase has involved an unprecedented intensity of map-making that supports an emerging regime of ocean governance where resources are geocoded, multiple and disparate marine uses are weighed against each other, spatial tradeoffs are made, and exclusive rights to spaces and resources are established. The discourse and practice of marine spatial planning inform the contours of this emerging regime. This paper examines the infrastructure of marine spatial planning via two ocean data portals recently created to support marine spatial planning on the East Coast of the United States. Applying theories of ontological politics, critical cartography, and a critical conceptualization of “care,” we examine portal performances in order to link their organization and imaging practices with the ideological and ontological work these infrastructures do, particularly in relation to environmental and human community actors. We further examine how ocean ontologies may be made durable through portal use and repetition, but also how such performances can “slip,” thereby creating openings for enacting marine spatial planning differently. Our analysis reveals how portal infrastructures assemble, edit, and visualize data, and how it matters to the success of particular performances of marine spatial planning.
