Book Review: Routledge Handbook of Seabed Mining and the Law of the Sea

Genc, Muhammet Can

Abstract

Over the last 70-80 years, historical concerns related to the exploitation and enclosure of the high seas, stemming from Grotius’ Mare Liberum, have become prominent, particularly amid rising mineral resource demand, population growth, and consumption patterns. The United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS)1 established regulatory frameworks for all maritime zones. Consequently, the legal framework surrounding deep-seabed mining (DSM) has gained significance. The Routledge Handbook of Seabed Mining and the Law of the Sea, edited by Dr. Campanella, stands out as a recent significant contribution to this field.
