摘要

小岛屿国家气候变化与国际法委员会(COSIS)向国际海洋法法庭(ITLOS)提交咨询意见的请求是主要由民间社会领导的与气候变化有关的更大战略诉讼运动的一部分。但是，这些地震和提出的问题重新引起了关于法庭咨询管辖权的辩论。国际海洋法法庭在分区域渔业委员会咨询意见中认为，其咨询管辖权是根据《国际海洋法法庭规约》和一项载有这方面规定的外部协定。然而，其实施的条件仍然模糊不清。COSIS的请求提出了一个棘手的问题，即外部协定是否符合《联合国海洋法公约》，特别是考虑到第311条。法庭意见的权威性在很大程度上取决于它是否认真地正面处理这些困难。

COSIS Request for an Advisory Opinion: A Poisoned Apple for the ITLOS?

The request for an advisory opinion submitted by the Commission of Small Island States on Climate Change and International Law (COSIS) to the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea (ITLOS) is part of a larger movement of strategic litigation in relation to climate change, essentially led by civil society. However, the seisin and the questions submitted revive debates on the Tribunal’s advisory jurisdiction. In the Sub-Regional Fisheries Commission Advisory Opinion, the ITLOS found that its advisory jurisdiction is based on the ITLOS Statute and on an external agreement with provisions for that purpose. However, the conditions for its exercise remain obscure. The COSIS request raises the thorny issue of the compatibility of the external agreement with the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, in particular in light of Article 311. The authority of the Tribunal’s opinion depends largely on its care in addressing these difficulties head on.

In addition to normal in-depth scholarly articles, the Journal contains a distinctive feature: a vigorous ‘Current Legal Developments’ section which provides notes and commentary on international treaties and case law, national statute law, national court decisions, and other aspects of state practice; includes the relevant original documentation where appropriate; and monitors developments in relevant international organizations at a global and regional level. The format also includes a book review section.
