Fisheries Disputes And Marine Security Management In Southeast Asia

From a realistic point of view,fishery conflict is not a long-term problem,but gradually emerges with the application of technological progress brought about by globalization in marine fishery fishing,with the development of marine economy and the scarcity of marine resources.On the one hand,fishery conflict is a social and economic issue,a game of interests among countries in the process of marine economic competition,which is closely related to economic development,social stability and the sustainability of marine resources.At the same time,fishery conflict is inextricably linked with national sovereignty,nationalist identity and political security in the interaction between countries dealing with fishery conflict.In order to safeguard the security of national resources and the integrity of sovereignty,the political battlefield should be established.In Southeast Asia,based on the long-standing tradition of ocean fishing in which the marine economy of Southeast Asian countries plays an important role in the national economy,the competition for marine fishery resources becomes more intense.Fisheries issues have become the platform of strategic competition and regional game among Southeast Asian countries.As an analytical tool,security theory has a "metaphysical" theoretical function.Safety chemists believe that "security" is a political battlefield,which is related to why war is fought,what is a security problem and what impact the security model has on it.It is impossible to mechanically derive the security dynamics from simple objective factors.On the other hand,security is topic-oriented,thr ough the analysis of the security process of specific actors and topics,to avoid the excessive scope of security research.Generally speaking,security practice is essentially an act of prioritizing.According to the Copenhagen School,a successful security should consist of three steps:establishing "existential threats",taking urgent action,and influencing the relationship between units by breaking and breaking free rules.Therefore,discussing the change process of fishery conflicts with the theory of security can clearly reflect the change of priorities of fishery conflicts in the national political agenda.Based on the framework of security analysis,this paper takes the construction process between fishery conflicts and security issues as the main point of historical process analysis,and takes the construction process of international law mechanism of fishery management mechanism in the international system as the turning point to analyze the process of security of fishery conflicts.The promulgation of the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea opened a new chapter in fishery resources management.Before 1982,fishery conflicts tended to point to the controversial level of the unilateral claims between countries on ownership and jurisdiction of fishery resources.The focus of fishery conflicts was mainly on the competition between fishery resources and fishing areas in the tragedy of public lands.With the emergence of the concept of exclusive economic zone and the recognition of its status in international law by the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea,fisheries conflicts have a clearer basis of international law.The disputes over delimitation between States have escalated from unilateral claims to management disputes over fishing,illegal(Illegal)fishing,unreported(Unreported)fishing and unregulated(Unregulated)fishing.(d)Fisheries fishing behavior(IUU fishing)with overlapping disputes over the delimitation of exclusive economic zones has become the core issue of Fisheries conflicts.Fishery conflicts are gradually "politicized" into the political agenda of countries and regions.Due to the inadequacy of the regional mechanism and the plan of disputes over maritime sovereignty,fisheries conflicts have gradually become a training ground for Southeast Asian countries to seek marine interests and demonstrate their national capabilities after 2010,with the continuous fermentation of the South China Sea issue,and the trend of Fisheries conflict security is obvious.The relationship between fishery conflicts and non-traditional security issues is increasingly close.The state combines IUU fishing with non-traditional security threats such as national territorial sea sovereignty and maritime crimes through Leaders' talks on important occasions,diplomacy to deal with intense fishery conflicts,and regional response mechanisms,in order to further enhance the priority of fishery issues in regional political issues.
