Law of the Sea, From Grotius to the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea: Liber Amicorum Judge Hugo Caminos honors the accomplished career path of a distinguished scholar, professor, diplomat and judge in the global field of the Law of the Sea.

Judge Hugo Caminos was not only defined by his professional accomplishments, including his appointment as Deputy Director of the Office of the Special Representative of the Secretary-General of the United Nations for the Third United Nations Conference on the Law of the Sea, and his work as a Judge on the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea. He is also remembered, with gratitude and admiration, as a person of unfaltering moral character and intellectual integrity. The essays collected in this volume are dedicated to his multifacetic life.

Consistent with the honoree’s background, the accomplished contributors to this book address relevant issues of the law of the sea, dealt with in eleven chapters, covering from historical perspectives to the UNCLOS, the law of the sea in polar regions, the Area, the particular issues of islands and archipelagic States, the freedom of navigation and its attached responsibilities, piracy and the latest awards on maritime delimitation, as well as recent practice of the International Tribunal on the Law of the Sea (ITLOS), dispute settlement procedures and some unsettled maritime disputes, from the respective author''s point of view.

All those interested in the Law of the Sea will find a seminal new work in Law of the Sea, From Grotius to the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea: Liber Amicrocum Judge Hugo Caminos.
