African States and Participation in Deep Seabed Mining: Problems and Prospects

African States and Participation in Deep Seabed Mining: Problems and Prospects AbstractThe Law of the Sea Convention requires that effective participation of developing States Parties in activities in the deep seabed beyond national jurisdiction (the Area) should be promoted having due regard to their special interests and needs (especially those of landlocked and geographically disadvantaged states). This article examines the difficulties in actual, direct and effective participation by African states in deep seabed mining and possible co-operative endeavours that African states may embark upon to overcome some of these constraints in order to advance the prospects of their actual, direct and effective participation in deep seabed mining. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png The International Journal of Marine and Coastal Law Brill

Abstract

AbstractThe Law of the Sea Convention requires that effective participation of developing States Parties in activities in the deep seabed beyond national jurisdiction (the Area) should be promoted having due regard to their special interests and needs (especially those of landlocked and geographically disadvantaged states). This article examines the difficulties in actual, direct and effective participation by African states in deep seabed mining and possible co-operative endeavours that African states may embark upon to overcome some of these constraints in order to advance the prospects of their actual, direct and effective participation in deep seabed mining.
