Synopsis
The marine environment does not naturally respect arbitrary international boundaries. The establishment and management of transboundary marine protected areas therefore presents major governance challenges. This book analyses a series of marine transboundary conservation initiatives embedded in varying contextual situations to examine the underlying reasons for their success or failure. Utilising an adapted 'pathways of influence' framework, it provides insights into the development of marine transboundary conservation initiatives looking at the effectiveness of international rules, international norms and discourse, market forces and direct access to policy making. Examples come from a wide range of jurisdictions, including territorial seas, continental shelves, exclusive economic zones and areas beyond national jurisdiction. Case studies include initiatives in the Coral Triangle, West Africa, Central America, the Wadden Sea, the Red Sea and the Mediterranean Sea. In addition the authors assess the potential for developing wider international cooperation as a result of relationships forged though involvement within these marine transboundary conservation initiatives.

"Overall, this volume provides a useful and timely contribution to the literature dissecting marine conservation approaches, and includes a range of interesting case studies that provide ample evidence for regional approaches to conservation and marine governance.

The volume will inform students, scholars, and practitioners alike, and provides a basis for further exploration of an important facet of marine conservation." - Elizabeth M. De Santo, Franklin & Marshall College in Ocean Yearbook 32 (2018)
