Marine pollution control in Europe: Regional approaches, 1972-80

Sonia Boehmer-Christiansen

Marine Policy, 1984, vol. 8, issue 1, 44-55

Abstract: This article evaluates the effectiveness of four regional pollution agreements concluded during the 1970s: The Bonn Agreement, the Oslo Convention, the Paris Convention and the Helsinki Convention. The treaties are described and their implementation to 1980 outlined. The issue of EEC participation in environmental protection in Europe is analysed and problems of overlap with the treaties under discussion are pointed out. A major conclusion of the article is the need for more implementation research to properly assess the effectiveness of such regional agreements.
