Menjelang UNCLOS III
Hugo Grotius-
1 Since navigation cannot harm any one accept the
navigator himself, it is only just that no one either can or ought to be interdicted therefrom, lest nature, free in her own realm, and least hurtful to herself, be found
impeding the liberty of navigation, and thus offending against the accepted precept and rule that all things are supposed to be permitted which are not found expressly forbidden.
The sea is one of those things which is not an article of merchandise, and which cannot become private
property. Hence it follows, to speak strictly, that no part of the sea can be considered as the territory of any
people whatsoever ….A nation can take possession of a river, as it is enclosed within their boundaries; with the sea, they cannot do so.
Hugo Grotius-
2 A ship sailing through the sea leaves behind it no more legal right than it does a track
It would appear that the sea also can be acquired by him who holds the lands on both sides, even though it may extend above as a bay, or above and below as a strait, provided that the part of the sea in question is not so
large that, when compared with the lands on both sides, it does not seem apart from them (the law of war and peace)
Everyone admits that if a great many persons hunt on the land of fish in a river, the forest is easily exhausted of wild animals and the river of fish, but such a contingency is impossible in the case of the sea
The extent of the ocean is in fact so great that it suffices for any possible use on the part of all people, for drawing water, for fishing, for sailing
Wiiliam Welwod
An Abridgement of All Sea-Lawes 1613; if the
uses of the sea should be limited in any way,
it should be mainly in regard to fishing, since
fisheries were exhaustible
Sebelum abad 20-
1 Lautan dikuasai Portugis – Spanyol
Hugo Grotius melontarkan “Mare Liberum”
Pembatasan penangkapan ikan dengan alasan kualitas, harga, dan alokasi tidak di enforce
Pembedaan antara perairan pantai “dalam pengawasan” negara pantai dengan laut lepas (high seas)
Konsep dominion dan jurisdiction “cannon shot rule” Christian Wolff (1740) dan Vattel (1758) mengemukakan
perikanan terbagi menjadi laut bebas dan laut terbatas sumberdaya habis/tidak
Konsep jurisdiksi pada perairan yang langsung berbatasan untuk alasan keamanan
Sebelum Abad 20-
2 Inggris dan Perancis mengadakan perjanjian “hal eksklusif perikanan” untuk wilayah yang berada dalam jarak 3 mil laut dari pantai masing-masing negara.
Abad 19 mulai timbul permasalahan pengaturan perikanan di satu wilayah dengan berbagai jenis/teknologi alat tangkap
Semakin banyak pendapat mengenai perlunya pengaturan lebih baik untuk perikanan yang berada di perairan tertutup dan pantai.
Timbul pemikiran bahwa “3-mil territorial sea” tidak lagi cukup untuk melindungi perikanan pantai. “fish do not respect the three mile or cannon shot limit”
“The farther the exclusive right to the littoral sea is extended, the more it may be possible to accomplish an organization for the rational exploitation of fisheries and for measures which tend to increase the number of fish” Rivier (1896)

60th ratification on November 16, 1993 (26th Indonesia, 3 Feb
1986)
Finally came into force on November 16, 1994
21 years after the first meeting of UNCLOS III and one year after ratification by the sixtieth state. The first sixty ratifications were almost all developing states.
A major feature of the convention included the definition of maritime zones- the territorial sea, the contiguous zone, the
exclusive economic zone, the continental shelf, the high sea, the international sea-bed area and archipelagic waters.
The convention also made provision for the passage of ships, protection of the marine environment, freedom of scientific
