THE REGULATORY BORDERS OF THE BLACK SEA THROUGH THE CARTOGRAPHY OF EUROPEAN UNION AND INTERNATIONAL LAW. A CASE STUDY - ROMANIA'S MARITIME SECURITY STRATEGY: WHERE, WHEN AND HOW?

Summary/Abstract: The study deepens the research on the causal actions between international and national legal norms in shaping and regulating the maritime space around the Black Sea with a focus on the Maritime Security Strategy. By bringing into discussion specific aspects of the law of the sea and relevant national legislation, it attempts to identify these boundaries in terms of natural resources, navigation and regional security. The issue of (in)sufficiency of regulation vis-à-vis the development and use of technologies for surveillance of naval activities, intelligence gathering, data analysis and to enhance security capabilities is raised. The methodology used in this research is based on an inter- and multi-disciplinary approach from the perspective of relevant international documents and treaties, to which is added a careful look at known case law. The case study deals with the lack of a Maritime Security Strategy for Romania and Bulgaria. Particular emphasis is placed on the interpretation and application of how the compass of international law marks boundaries and responsibilities within the Black Sea. At the same time, the discussions converge towards reconciling differences in the interpretation and implementation of international rules and adapting them to the specific context of the littoral states, which is by no means an easy task, as history has shown. The findings contribute to a clearer understanding of the legal processes involved in the delimitation of regulations and their effects on regional and international cooperation.
