Greece was one of the initial 119 delegations to sign the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea at the final meeting of the Conference for that purpose in December of 1982. When the Convention came into force in November 1994, only two countries opposed it. Turkey was one of them. Turkey has no plans to ratify the Convention in the near future.
<p class=copymedium><b>Greece and the Law of the Sea</b> reviews the main developments in the Greek-Turkish dispute relating to the Greek islands in the Aegean Sea and analyzes all other aspects of the Greek maritime interests in the light of the Convention. The contributors have closely followed the creation of the new international law of the sea and discuss in their papers how this affects a great maritime nation, such as Greece, in a variety of ways.
<p class=copymedium>The work is published under the auspices of the recently established Aegean Institute of the Law of the Sea and Maritime Law, an independent scientific research center affiliated with the University of the Aegean, located in Rhodes. It constitutes one of the few books to cover Greek affairs in the English language. As such, it will greatly assist non-Greek speaking scholars interested in following and studying Greek affairs.
