International Fisheries Management: A Comparative Analysis Of Legal Approaches To Management In The Context Of Polar Fisheries Regimes, Stuart Bruce Kaye
PhD Dissertations
This thesis examines the management of marine living resources in international law. The thesis considers the development of the two principal approaches to fisheries management.

The analysis of the existing rules, fragmented along modal and geographical fines, shows that they do not sufficiently introduce the safety, environmental protection and liability considerations into the legal regime governing …
