Non-Flag State Enforcement In High Seas Fisheries, Rosemary Rayfuse

Rosemary Rayfuse

This book is the first comprehensive examination of state practice relating to enforcement by non-flag states of the high seas conservation and management measures adopted by Regional Fisheries Organisations. Moving beyond the issue of the implementation of the United Nations Fish Stocks Agreement, it demonstrates an emerging exception, in customary international law, to the rule of primacy of flag state jurisdiction in the high seas fisheries context and delineates the parameters in which this emerging exception allowing for non-flag jurisdiction may be exercised. This book contains extensive factual descriptions of state practice as well as comprehensive legal analyses of that …

“El Principio De Precaución En La Jurisprudencia Del Tribunal De Justicia De Las Comunidades Europeas: ¿Un Principio De Buen Gobierno?”, Luis González Vaqué Dec 2003

“El Principio De Precaución En La Jurisprudencia Del Tribunal De Justicia De Las Comunidades Europeas: ¿Un Principio De Buen Gobierno?”, Luis González Vaqué

Luis González Vaqué

La jurisprudencia examinada no parece confortar las tesis de quienes se muestran favorables a una concepción maximalista del principio de precaución.

Especialmente, si se tiene en cuenta que una interpretación maximalista del mismo tiende a restarle …
