摘要

摘要本文通过对历史上被认为是一组岩石的圣伯多禄岛和圣保罗岛的分析，考察巴西对《联合国海洋法公约》(UNCLOS)第121条的解释和适用。在《联合国海洋法公约》生效之前，巴西通过三步程序改变了这些岛礁的法律地位，以主张专属经济区和大陆架。最近，巴西通过使用直线基线和在圣彼得和圣保罗周围建立大规模海洋保护区，加强了其主张的基础。有人认为，巴西对人类居住要求有灵活的理解，并依靠有争议的国家实践，以最大限度地利用这些特征周围的海洋区域。

From Rocks to an Archipelago: The Brazilian Interpretation and Application of Article 121 of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea With Respect to the St. Peter and St. Paul Insular Features

Abstract This article examines the Brazilian interpretation and application of Article 121 of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) through analysis of the St. Peter and St. Paul insular features, historically considered as a group of rocks. Prior to the entry into force of UNCLOS, Brazil implemented a three-step process to change the legal status of these features in order to claim an exclusive economic zone and continental shelf. More recently, Brazil has strengthened its basis of claim through the employment of straight baselines and the establishment of a large-scale marine protected area around St. Peter and St. Paul. It is argued that Brazil has used a flexible understanding of the human habitation requirement and relied on debatable state practice in order to maximize its maritime areas around these features.
