Bibliography
Summary
This is a bibliography section from a research handbook on ocean governance and international maritime law. It lists sources covering the legal frameworks relevant to managing ocean pollution including plastics, but contains no original scientific research.
This authoritative Research Handbook offers wide-ranging coverage of both traditional and emerging topics dealing with the regulation of ocean space and highlights the key academic debates around ocean governance. It provides a formidable interface between the 1982 UNCLOS Convention and the international law regulating ocean governance, while influencing its further evolution through suggestions for future research in the field.
