論BBNJ與沿岸國海域管轄權之衝突與調和

On the Conflict and Harmonization of the Littoral State’s Maritime Jurisdiction with the BBNJ Agreement

本文的主要目的是，是就目前聯合國正在談判之「國家管轄外區域海洋生物多樣性養護與永續利用協定」（Agreement under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea on the Conservation and Sustainable Use of Marine Biological Diversity of Areas beyond National Jurisdiction）中，有關「以區域為基礎之管理工具」（Area-Based Management Tools，對沿岸國國家管轄內區域之管轄權影響與其可能的調和方式進行分析。在文章中，作者透過對東北大西洋海洋環境保護公約（the Convention for the Protection of the Marine Environment of the North-East Atlantic）實踐之觀察，認為國際法上之「鄰接性」、「連續性」、「相容性」、與「適當顧及」等原則，認為這是調和此一新協定與沿岸國海域管轄權間可能的法律基礎。

The purpose of this article is to analyze how the Area-Based Management Tools provided in the legally binding agreement under the future United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea on the Conservation and Sustainable Use of Marine Biological Diversity of Areas beyond National Jurisdiction (BBNJ) would affect the littoral state’s maritime jurisdiction and the possible harmonizing solutions. Based on the observation of the state practices of the Convention for the Protection of the Marine Environment of the North-East Atlantic, the author argues that the principles of adjacency, connectivity, compatibility and due regard respectively would be the legal bases of the harmonization between the future BBNJ agreement and the maritime jurisdiction of littoral states.
