Military Activities In The Exclusive Economic Zone: East Asia Focus, Raul (Pete) Pedrozo 2014 U.S. Naval War College

Military Activities In The Exclusive Economic Zone: East Asia Focus, Raul (Pete) Pedrozo

International Law Studies

In August 2014, a Chinese fighter aggressively intercepted a U.S. Navy surveillance plane over the South China Sea. This incident once again raises the issue of the legality of conducting military activities in and over the exclusive economic zone (EEZ) without coastal State notice or consent. All nations have a right under international law to conduct military activities in foreign EEZs. The article discusses the legal bases for conducting these activities and reviews some of the more prominent arguments used by States that purport to regulate such activities in the EEZ. It concludes that the right to engage in military …


1907 Hague Convention Viii Relative To The Laying Of Automatic Submarine Contact Mines, Steven Haines 2014 U.S. Naval War College

1907 Hague Convention Viii Relative To The Laying Of Automatic Submarine Contact Mines, Steven Haines

International Law Studies

This article places 1907 Hague Convention VIII in its historical context, examines its content, summarizes State practice since 1907 (including during the two World Wars) and discusses the Convention’s relevance to contemporary mine warfare. The Convention has inherent shortcomings, has never been strictly applicable in any war since 1907, and is not strictly relevant to anything other than automatic contact mines (effectively excluding modern influence mines). Despite this—and a paucity of substantial State practice since 1945—the conclusion is that the Convention has influenced the customary law on sea-mines. When that custom was combined with other relevant custom (particularly that pertaining …


Beyond Hague Viii: Other Legal Limits On Naval Mine Warfare, David Letts 2014 U.S. Naval War College

Beyond Hague Viii: Other Legal Limits On Naval Mine Warfare, David Letts

International Law Studies

Legal texts and scholarly articles that deal with the topic of naval mine warfare typically do so by reference to Hague Convention VIII of 1907 and customary international law. Little comment, if any, is usually made in relation to the variety of other legal regimes that might impact upon the use of naval mines in armed conflict. This article seeks to redress that imbalance by examining, with a focus on the jus in bello, a range of legal considerations arising from more contemporary sources that affect the use of naval mines in international armed conflict.


The Law Applicable To Naval Mine Warfare In A Non-International Armed Conflict, Rob McLaughlin 2014 U.S. Naval War College

The Law Applicable To Naval Mine Warfare In A Non-International Armed Conflict, Rob Mclaughlin

International Law Studies

There are very few instruments and very few cases, which describe how the law in relation to naval mine warfare applies within non-international armed conflict contexts. Additionally, since 1945, there has been relatively limited State practice. Working out what the law applicable to naval mine warfare in NIAC situations might look like today thus requires some recourse to the pre-World War II scheme designed to accommodate and characterize maritime activity by rebels, insurgents, and belligerents in conflict with their State. This article proposes for discussion a set of “rules” that attempt to incorporate and update elements of this customary scheme …
