The Commission on the Limits of the Continental Shelf: Law and Legitimacy examines the Commission from two different but interrelated perspectives: a legal analysis of the Commission?s decision-making; and a study of normative legitimacy related to the Commission and its procedures. Insights into the history of the development of the concept of the continental shelf in the law of the sea are offered, including an explanation of how the institutionalized method for ascertaining continental shelf limits in the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea came into being. Through a deep-ranging analysis of the Commission and its work, the book introduces a framework for assessing best practices, and will serve as a useful reference for academics, scientists and policymakers alike. 410 0$aPublications on ocean development ;$vVolume 77. 606 $aContinental shelf$xLaw and legislation 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aContinental shelf$xLaw and legislation. 676 $a341.4/48 700 $aJensen$b {phono}?Øystein$0973146 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910458615103321 996 $aThe Commission on the Limits of the Continental Shelf$92214081 997 $aUNINA
