Exclusive Economic Zone

Developed and implemented over a period of three decades through legislation and practice in the countries of Latin America, the concept of the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) is the most recent of those incorporated into the body of international law resulting from the Third United Nations Law of the Sea Conference.A distinguished group of Latin American jurists and diplomats--most of whom were participants in Law of the Sea negotiations--present in this book their views on various aspects of the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ).
