| Summary: | The goal of this paper is to analyze the role of the Commission on the Limits of the Continental Shelf (CLCS) in the developing of the outer continental shelves delineation process. The research was structured in a theoretical and practical approach; the performance of the CLCS was used as a paradigm to describe the academic debates around the possibility of coastal States to extend their continental shelves beyond 200 nautical miles. In that way, the study presents some results for the hypothesis that the CLCS is facing serious challenges in the performance of its duties: considerable workload, nancial restrictions and the third party intervention in the coastal States submissions. Finally, the original contribution of the present work consists of drawing a picture of the CLCS since its formation to the present date, adding theoretical debates with practical cases presented to the CLCS. |
