Ruling in favor of Ecuador would set a precedent that has far-reaching consequences: Exclusive Economic Zones are territorial waters. As a result, rights would be granted to States in their territorial waters that were not intended to be by the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea.

countries' economies sunk in depression or recession. After four years, some emerging economies, such as China and India which are the members of the "BRICS" (the acronym of Brazil, Russia, India and China, which are at a similar stage of newly advanced economic development), firstly got rid of the effect of this financial crisis. Therefore, these emerging economies begin to draw more economists' attention. Prime, Subrahmanyam and Lin researched the competitiveness in India and China through the foreign

The Competitive Environment of Shenzhen In August 1980 Shenzhen was declared China’s first Special Economic Zone for its image as a prominent city and key design hub (UNESCO, 2010).

China's development is praised by the whole world. Its developments are not only in the economic aspect, but as well in its foreign affairs.

Entirely, non-state-owned companies can now be more involved in sectors that used to be monopolized by state-owned companies. Its phenomenal success is because it

The delimitation of the maritime border and the continental shelf is one of the most complicated and delicate issues of Albania. It is related to historical affairs, Albanian heritage, economic development, international relations and the exploitation of our maritime natural resources. This delimitation has a great influence on the security and international politics between the states that are included in this issue and most importantly in the security and the prosperity of the region. My research
is a sort of international constitution establishing the rights and responsibilities for the use of the world’s oceans. . . . The treaty also regulates a country’s exclusive economic zone—how far from its shoreline a nation can legally fish and tap the minerals under the seabed. Thus, beyond the 200-nautical-mile limit of this zone, none of the five Arctic Ocean countries has the right to touch the enormous body of mineral wealth below the ice. The treaty, however, allows any nation to lobby for

They occurred around 22 miles off the coast of Kerala, outside India’s territorial waters but within Indian exclusive economic zone and contiguous zone. According to the Italian opinion the art. 97 of UNCLOS, to which both Italy and India are party, should apply to these
the northeast region of the United States. It contains a variety of land ranging from mountains and ridges to beaches. There are multiple types of ecosystems that inhabit these areas such as forests and wetlands. These ecosystems provide vital economic and ecosystem services to the state and its environment. Ocean County, New Jersey is located in the coastal (eastern) section of the state, and is made up of flat land and beaches. In fact, when most people think of Ocean County, its shore and beaches
Unfortunately, the news isn't as good for the locals who lost most or all of their livelihoods. On the socioeconomic side, 88 percent of the fishermen who the researchers interviewed felt slighted by shark conservation agencies because they felt that their economic needs weren't factored in. Many fishermen also expressed that they didn't understand the goal of these shark sanctuaries. And that's a
great places to get cheap, raw materials for Europe's factories. Add to this that Europe needed a place to house and employ their surplus population, and you can see why New Imperialism held the promise of economic growth. President William Taft, elected in 1908, believed in using American economic power to expand U.S. influence. Taft encouraged American banks and investors to put
When considering the stages of economic growth that W.W. Rostow wrote about, Urbanization can be found mostly on the drive to maturity, where cities are more industrial and base economies on commerce. The countries that go through the challenge of urbanization aim to reach high mass-consumption, which would improve the life of those that are in the higher parts of the economic pyramid. Those that are in the working class are affected, because the drive

A strong sense of community is not usually an association one makes when thinking about the urban ghettos. It is assumed that inner-city neighbourhoods, which lack formal structures and services, are home to poverty and deviance. However, for Sudhir Venkatesh, author of “Gang Leader for a Day”, a community is what he encounters when observing residents of the largest housing projects in the United States, the Robert Taylor Homes. In poor, racialized neighbourhoods such as the Robert Taylor Homes
The Atacama Desert Abstract Exclusive of the largest mountain ranges and oceans, earth’s most well-known physical features are its great desert regions. The word desert often conjures up ideas of open expanses of sand and towering dunes blown by perpetual wind and dust storms. Moreover, deserts are often categorized as being strictly sandy, hot, and extremely dry. Only part of this assumption is correct. Furthermore, the categorizing of deserts as such illustrates how little knowledge many people
