国际海洋法法庭若干法律问题的分析

Legal Issues of the Marine Law International Tribunal

国际海洋法法庭是根据《联合国海洋法公约》及其附件6增设的常设性国际司法机构。设立国际海洋法法庭是争端解决机制的一大创举,并且在争端解决机制方面具有独特的作用和重要的地位。比如,它确认了争端当事方资格,克服了海洋法本身的缺陷,实施了强制性的管辖权等。目前,国际海洋法法庭在实践中主要处理"船只和船员的迅速释放"和"临时措施"等案件。国际海洋法法庭对于中国也有重大的影响。

The International Marine Law Tribunal is a new permanent international judicial organization established in accordance with the provisions of the UN Convention of the Marine Law and Annex Ⅵ. The establishment of the International Marine Law Tribunal is a creative measure to resolve disputes, figuring significantly as a unique dispute-resolving mechanism, as it reaffirms the legal status of the parties concerned, overcoming the shortcomings of the marine law and enforcing compulsory jurisdiction. Currently, the International Marine Law Tribunal mainly deals with ＂release＂ cases and ＂provisional measures＂ cases. The International Marine Law Tribunal is very important to China.
