The realm of maritime operations at sea is a complex and multifaceted domain, encompassing two distinct elements: treaty law and customary international law. Treaty law, as established by the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, serves as a foundational framework for regulating maritime affairs. However, it is the cases and incidents that occur at sea, both in peacetime and during armed conflict, that shape and evolve customary international law, specifically pertaining to maritime operations. This edited collection delves into the most renowned and influential cases and incidents that have shaped the law of maritime operations. Spanning a wide range of topics, including sovereignty, vessel status, jurisdiction, interdiction, freedom of navigation, maritime law enforcement, and security, this book offers a comprehensive examination of the various facets of maritime operations. By providing a detailed account of each case or incident, along with sophisticated analysis and insights into their enduring importance and significance for the development of maritime operations law, this book serves as an invaluable resource for practitioners, scholars, teachers, and students alike. Furthermore, it offers a critical assessment of the most complex but often misunderstood cases in maritime operations law, encouraging a comparative analysis between key cases. In essence, this book serves as a comprehensive and indispensable guide to the complex and ever-evolving field of maritime operations law.
