  • The Difficulties of Conflict Classification at Sea: Distinguishing Incidents At
    International Review of the Red Cross (2016), 98 (2), 449–464. War and security at sea doi:10.1017/S1816383117000327 The difficulties of conflict classification at sea: Distinguishing incidents at sea from hostilities Wolff Heintschel von Heinegg Professor Heintschel von Heinegg holds the Chair of Public Law, in particular public international law, European law and foreign constitutional law, at the Europa-Universita¨t Viadrina in Frankfurt (Oder), Germany. Abstract Incidents at sea between warships and military aircraft often involve more than provocative actions – they may be aggressive and can sometimes result in death and destruction. In view of the low threshold of a resort to armed force by one State against another that would bring an international armed conflict into existence, it is rather difficult to determine whether incidents at sea remain below that threshold. Similar, albeit less difficult problems arise with regard to forceful measures taken by States against foreign merchant vessels. Here it is important to clearly distinguish between law enforcement at sea and the exercise of belligerent rights. Keywords: international armed conflict, resort to armed force, warships, military aircraft, merchant vessels, incidents at sea, harassment, law enforcement at sea, exercise of belligerent rights, visit and search, capture. Introduction The sea is a special environment. For good reasons, the ships of all States enjoy freedom of navigation and other well-established rights, because their economies © icrc 2017 449 W. Heintschel von Heinegg are highly dependent upon the use of the world’s oceans. At the same time, coastal States enjoy various rights in the sea areas off their coasts, which they may enforce against foreign vessels, including by a use of proportionate force.

  • Irene Herman Overview Followed by Representative Rpts
    Delegation Chair December 5, 2013- All our delegates found their way to the Opening Ceremony. 2013 has been a year of challenges and last minute changes. With health issues of some of our delegates, all our alternates were used. We had a productive caucus with Lionel Leach presenting the issues of the National office and our membership with Regulation 18. Since we are hosting and award the 2014 Senior Track and Field Championship, I spent the good part of the morning Friday at the expo promoting and marketing at the Sacramento CVB Exhibit. Coffee with the CEO was a step in the right direction because the Pacific Association was able to convey our importance of a nationwide through background check. Max was open-minded about the issue and said that the subject will be researched and hopefully concluded by spring 2014. Saturday morning was occupied by the Cross country council meeting where the Pacific Association had the opportunity to provide some basic information and brochure on San Francisco and the venue. Mike Scott indicated that we can increase our entry fee by $5.00 because they want us to provide transportation from the hotel to GGP. The closing ceremony was one of the longest we’ve had in many years. The issue of Regulation 18 was amended without any late minute changes from the NGB. We had a lot of work to do to retain our hard work and earnings in putting on national championships.
