Combating Terrorism At Sea -- The Suppression Of Unlawful Acts Against The Safety Of Maritime Navigation, Helmut Tuerk Apr 2008

Combating Terrorism At Sea -- The Suppression Of Unlawful Acts Against The Safety Of Maritime Navigation, Helmut Tuerk

University of Miami International and Comparative Law Review

While piracy is an age-old phenomenon plaguing mankind, terrorism at sea has only manifested itself in recent times through the Achille Lauro hijacking in 1985 serving as a wake-up call. The international community has since been striving to adopt a series of legal as well as practical measures in order to prevent a recurrence of such a terrorist act because the rules of international law relating to piracy are not applicable mutatis mutandis to terrorism. The Convention for the Suppression of Unlawful Acts Against the Safety of Maritime Navigation was adopted in 1988. This Convention addressed terrorism at sea for …

The Japanese Dolphin Hunts: In Quest Of International Legal Protection For Small Cetaceans, Rachelle Adam Jan 2008

The Japanese Dolphin Hunts: In Quest Of International Legal Protection For Small Cetaceans, Rachelle Adam

Animal Law Review

This article sets out to explore the international legal status of those dolphins targeted by the Japanese drive hunts. It is estimated that over two thousand five hundred small cetaceans—dolphins, porpoises and small whales—will be killed as a result, out of a total of over twenty thousand killed annually in Japan by direct catch. It is argued that since we have literally pushed them to the brink of extinction, we have an ethical duty towards dolphins, to stop the cruelty perpetrated against them by man and to ensure the survival of their species. And our ethical duty towards them should …

Don't Be Left Out In The Cold: An Argument For Advancing American Interests In The Arctic Outside The Ambits Of The United Nations Convention On The Law Of The Sea, Jason W. Howard Jan 2008

Don't Be Left Out In The Cold: An Argument For Advancing American Interests In The Arctic Outside The Ambits Of The United Nations Convention On The Law Of The Sea, Jason W. Howard

Georgia Law Review

In the world of fast-depleting fossil fuel reserves, any area promising new sources of oil and natural gas will be valuable to the nation controlling it. The Arctic Circle could be such an area. Recognizing this, in August 2007, while gathering scientific data, a submarine placed a titanium Russian flag on the Arctic seafloor in a symbolic statement of Russia's claim to the area. As Russia and other nations prepare their claims under the U.N. Convention on the Law of the Sea, the United States, because it has not yet ratified the treaty, is left to defend its interest outside …

The Influence Of Law On Sea Power Doctrines: The New Maritime Strategy And The Future Of The Global Legal Order, Craig H. Allen

Articles

For much of the 2006-07 academic year, elements of the US Naval War College facilitated an elaborate process designed to provide the intellectual foundations for the Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) and his staff to draw upon in drafting a new maritime strategy. The process brought together experts from throughout the world to take part in workshops, strategic foundation "war" games, conferences and listening sessions.

It was my privilege as the Charles H. Stockton Chair of International Law to serve as legal advisor throughout the process. This article summarizes the contributions of the Naval War College International Law Department (ILD) …
