The United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) stands as one of the most remarkable and successful agreements ever crafted to govern the vast expanse of the global commons. If we perceive it as a constitution for the oceans, then Satya Nandan can be rightfully regarded as one of its founding members, a pivotal figure behind both the agreement's inception and the subsequent evolution of the Law of the Sea in the decades following its adoption. Nandan assumed the leadership role in drafting the critical negotiating text, which remarkably remained largely unchanged in the final text of the Convention.
How did a lawyer from Fiji, with limited diplomatic experience, emerge to play such a pivotal role in this critical area of diplomacy and international law? This book unravels the captivating story of Nandan's journey, shedding light on his remarkable skills, adaptability, and mastery of language. Through meticulous research and firsthand accounts, it explores how Nandan navigated the intricate negotiations, forged alliances with colleagues from diverse countries, and employed strategic approaches to achieve consensus at every stage of the process.
In a time when the stakes involved in managing the global commons are at an all-time high, the experience and insights of Satya Nandan become increasingly valuable and pertinent. His unwavering commitment to finding common ground and his ability to navigate complex negotiations have left an indelible mark on the development of the modern law of the sea. This book serves as a testament to Nandan's enduring legacy and his profound contributions to international law and diplomacy.
