The Application of the Principle of Prevention to land-based sources of marine pollution: an International Law approach

Francesco Maletto

Maastricht University

Abstrakt

Pomimo faktu, że sprawa zanieczyszczenia mórz, którego źródłem jest aktywność człowieka na lądzie, stanowi jeden z głównych problemów środowiskowych, do tej pory nie doczekała się jasnego i spójnego międzynarodowego ujęcia prawnego. Dlatego też celem niniejszego artykułu jest sprowadzenie wielu fragmentarycznych ujęć do jednej
regulacji o statusie międzynarodowym, która byłaby w stanie skutecznie rozwiązywać ten palący problemu. Taka intencja prowadziła autora do skupienia się na zasadzie prewencji, która – chociaż jest fundamentem międzynarodowego prawa – wciąż pozostaje niedookreślona, jeśli idzie o treści normatywne. Mając powyższe na względzie, autor podej muje próbę
zrekonstruowania rzeczywistej treści tej zasady, ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem tematyki
podjętej w pracy. W tym celu podstawą działania było zidentyfikowanie standardu staranności
państw w tej kwestii oraz zweryfikowanie, w jaki sposób taka „należyta staranność” współgra z podstawowymi zasadami i przyczynia się do wypełnienia treści normatywnych. W rezultacie wypracowano jedną prawną regulację z odnowionym potencjałem, szczególnie
jeśli idzie o możliwości egzekucyjne.
