“…In the words of Edgar Gold (1999), referring to the shipping industry: 'As international organizations had no enforcement power (which had traditionally been left to flag states), acceptance or adherence to international codes and conventions did not entail that the accepting State was willing or able to enforce such codes.'

This comprehensive handbook provides a global overview of ocean resources and management by focusing on critical issues relating to human development and the marine environment, their interrelationships as expressed through the uses of the sea as a resource, and the regional expression of these themes. The underlying approach is geographical, with prominence given to the biosphere, political arrangements and regional patterns -all considered to be especially crucial to the human understanding required for the use and management of the world's oceans.Part 1 addresses key themes in our knowledge of relationships between people and the sea on a global scale, including economic and political issues, and understanding and managing marine environments. Part 2 provides a systematic review of the uses of the sea, grouped into food, ocean space, materials and energy, and the sea as an environmental resource. Part 3 on the geography of the sea considers management strategies especially related to the state system, and regional management developments in both core economic regions and the developing periphery. The primary themes within each chapter are governance (including institutional and legal bases); policy -sets of ideas governing management; and management, both technical and general.
