Brill will soon releases "The Continental Shelf Beyond 200 Nautical Miles Delineation, Delimitation and Dispute Settlement", a new book by Bjarni Már Magnússon.
In The Continental Shelf Beyond 200 Nautical Miles, Bjarni Már Magnússon explores various aspects of the establishment of the outer limits of the continental shelf beyond 200 nautical miles and maritime boundary delimitations. Special emphasis is laid on the interplay between these processes and the role of coastal States, the Commission on the Limits of the Continental Shelf and international courts and tribunals in this regard.
Magnússon convincingly argues that despite the possibility for tension to arise the relationship between the relevant institutions and processes is clear and precise and they together form a coherent system where each separate institution plays its own part in a larger process.
Bjarni Már Magnússon, Ph.D. (2013), Reykjavik University, is Assistant Professor in International Law at Reykjavik University. He has published on public international law and was a junior counsel for Bangladesh in the maritime boundary delimitation case against Myanmar.
