On The Perfection Of The Regulation Of The Right Of Hot Pursuit In The Law Of The Sea

The right of hot pursuit is an important fundamental right and regulation of the law of the sea.The right of hot pursuit was codified in the High Seas Convention in 1958.The 1982 UN Convention on the Law of the Sea inherited the entire content of the right of hot pursuit from the High Seas Convention and extended the area of hot pursuit.Since the right of hot pursuit was first formulated as a cultural provision in the High Seas Convention in 1958,the time has passed 60 years.In these 60 years,the provisions on the right of hot pursuit have hardly been modified,but the practice of the country in the right of hot pursuit continues to develop,the application and popularization of technological equipment in marine activities,and the balance between the sovereignty of the coastal countries ' territorial sea and the freedom of navigation on the high seas.Point offsets and other reasons make the right of hot pursuit lag far behind national practices.The right of hot pursuit is originally intended to safeguard the system of coastal States' effective exercise of their jurisdiction,and has become an impediment rather than an impetus for the coastal states to effectively exercise their jurisdiction.On the practical level,the rapid increase in the number of disputes over hot pursuit,the phenomenon of illegal fishing,and the emergence of multilateral hot pursuit cases have gradually exposed new problems in the system of hot pursuit.This thesis will focus on the new problems arising from the current situation of the right of hot pursuit and present the author' s own views and opinions on these issues.At the same time,under the background of the fact that the right of hot pursuit has not yet been modified,in the perspective of maintaining the order of the sea and strengthening the law enforcement efficiency of the coastal states,put forward more in line with the current law enforcement needs of coastal countries and more reasonable explanations and suggestions for improvement.The thesis is divided into five chapters.The first chapter is prefaces.The second chapter briefly introduces the historical development and content of the right of hot pursuit.The third chapter proposes new issues that arise after the formulation of the right of hot pursuit in the 1982 UN Convention on the Law of the Sea.The four chapters put forward their own views and opinions on the issues raised in Chapter ?,and proposed suggestions for the improvement of the system of hot pursuit.Chapter 5 will summarize the full text.
