Due diligence has experienced a significant surge in interest, particularly in the domains of environmental law and the law of the sea. However, there exists a sense of confusion regarding its definition. Is due diligence a principle, a rule, a standard, or something else entirely? This book aims to provide a comprehensive theory of due diligence that aligns with the general principles of State responsibility.
In addition, this book delves into the usefulness of due diligence in addressing contemporary challenges affecting the high seas. While the application of due diligence in transboundary contexts is well established in jurisprudence, its applicability in areas beyond national jurisdiction remains somewhat unclear. Nonetheless, the proper utilization of this concept holds significant potential for the protection of the high seas, as it enables the incorporation of international standards into this delicate realm.
By examining the theory of due diligence in detail, this book will appeal to international lawyers who are interested in this notion. It also offers a fresh perspective on the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) through the lens of due diligence, which will be of interest to lawyers engaged in the protection of the marine environment and fisheries.
