Abstract
The erosion of the freedom of the seas regime that has been taking place especially since the end of World War II seems to been taking place especially since the end of World War II seems to be continuing more gradually and in a different manner. In order to protect the interests of the international community coinciding more or less with their own needs, the coastal States, the archipelagic States, the regional fishing organizations for the high seas and the International Seabed Authority are ver more often exercising functions that previously had been carried out above all by the flag State. In this work we analyze the evolution of international law governing the safety of maritime navigation. The analysis covers, first, the cooperation between coastal sates and the IMO and subsequently, coastal states' independently exercisable competences.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
