Resilience of the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea: 40 Years - Introduction

Research output: Contribution to journalJournal articleResearchpeer-review

This Special Issue, based on an international conference commemorating 40 years of
the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (LOSC), Copenhagen, March 2023,
examines emerging issues of resilience of the Convention. More than 40 years have
passed since the adoption of the LOSC. Currently, the LOSC faces many challenges that
were unforeseen at the time of its adoption in 1982. An essential question thus arises as
to whether and how it is possible to address these unforeseen issues under the LOSC.
Here, resilience of the LOSC must be envisaged. The six articles in this Special Issue
provide an insight into the resilience of the LOSC, examining some cutting-edge mat-
ters the LOSC faces today.
