- Title
PROTECTING ENDANGERED MARINE SPECIES: COLLABORATION BETWEEN THE FOOD AND AGRICULTURE ORGANIZATION AND THE CITES REGIME.
- Authors
Young, Margaret A.
- Abstract
Multiple laws and institutions seek to address the increasing vulnerability of marine species. The separate treatment of species protection under the Convention on the International Trade in Endangered Species ('CITES'), and fisheries management and conservation according to the Food and Agriculture Organization ('FAO') is part of a general phenomenon of fragmentation of international law. While much of the fragmentation literature addresses conflicting norms, little attention has been given to the institutional collaboration and normative influences between overlapping regimes. This article explores regime interaction between the FAO fisheries management and CITES regimes, with particular attention to the development of a memorandum of understanding between the FAO and the CITES secretariat.
