THE EXCLUSIVE ECONOMIC ZONE: SOME TRANSITIONAL LAW PROBLEMS * by i. The main problems raised by the establishment of the exclusive economic zone (EEZ) have been thoroughly investigated since 1974 In particular, the following aspects have been discussed: the legal nature of the EEZ as a whole (open sea, territorial sea or sui generis area?); the nature and the extension of the rights of the coastal States over economic resources, particularly over fishing resources; the rights of other States with regard to other uses of the sea (navigation, the laying of submarine cables and pipelines, overflight); the regime of scientific research in the zone; anti-pollution measures; relationships with land-locked and geographically disadvantaged States of the same region; the effects of the establishment of the EEZ on the regime of the continental shelf, particularly regarding the shelf situated beyond the outer limit of the EEZ, that is, more than 200 miles from the coast.

Abstract

by i. The main problems raised by the establishment of the exclusive economic zone (EEZ) have been thoroughly investigated since 1974 In particular, the following aspects have been discussed: the legal nature of the EEZ as a whole (open sea, territorial sea or sui generis area?); the nature and the extension of the rights of the coastal States over economic resources, particularly over fishing resources; the rights of other States with regard to other uses of the sea (navigation, the laying of submarine cables and pipelines, overflight); the regime of scientific research in the zone; anti-pollution measures; relationships with land-locked and geographically disadvantaged States of the same region; the effects of the establishment of the EEZ on the regime of the continental shelf, particularly regarding the shelf situated beyond the outer limit of the EEZ, that is, more than 200 miles from the coast. In this introductory report I shall not be concerned with these problems, both because I have already expressed my views with respect to them in an article written in 1975 2, and see no reason for changing those views now, and because the study of such problems constitutes to a large extent the subject
