Informal Lawmaking in Maritime Security: New Directions in Ocean Governance

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This project will investigate the rapidly increasing contribution of informal lawmaking to promoting maritime security and to developing new forms of ocean governance. It is important to assess this form of international cooperation in response to key maritime security concerns, such as the freedom of navigation, boat migration, illegal fishing and transnational crimes, to demonstrate the impact of diverse actors, institutions and networks on governance. This research will facilitate how international lawyers and policymakers can currently influence the operation of international law to improve maritime security responses and will better equip Australia to preserve its leadership role internationally in promoting a rules-based order at sea.
