利用国际刑法保护海洋生物资源

To Protect Marine Biological Resources by Taking Advantage of International Criminal Law

海洋生物资源是不可再生的资源,其重要性已被越来越多的国家所认识到。各国通过立法对本国领海和专属经济区的海洋生物资源进行保护。然而,对于公海领域的海洋生物资源目前为止虽然已有了相关国际协定做出了原则性的规定,但是,对于破坏海洋生物资源的行为,缺失有效的制裁方式。因此,对海洋生物资源在国际刑法的领域中探求有效的保护方式,要利用国际刑事法院打击破坏海洋生物资源的行为。

Marine biological resources are not renewable resources, the importance of which has been recognized by more and more countries.Through the legislation, countries protect their own territorial waters and marine biological resources in the exclusive economic zone.However, for the marine biological resources in international waters, although there are the relevant international agreements, it still lacks of effective sanctions for their destruction.The author hopes that effective protection can be found for the marine biological resources in the field of international criminal law, and the International Criminal Court can be used to crack down the destruction of marine biological resources.
