A proteção do ambiente marinho e a prevenção contra a poluição marítima são objetos essenciais do direito internaci- onal. A poluição dos mares e oceanos pode ter consequências catastróficas para toda a humanidade. Assim, os sujeitos de direito internacional têm se empenhado em criar regulamentos e diretrizes no intuito de preservar o espaço marinho com qua- lidade ambiental aceitável para a atual e futuras gerações. Papel fundamental neste intuito possui a Organização Marítima In- ternacional. Este artigo tem como objetivo analisar qual a fun- ção da OMI na proteção e prevenção da poluição marítima cau- sada pela navegação internacional e demonstrar que sem a atu- ação internacional da organização os mares e oceanos estariam ambientalmente muito mais comprometidos.

Στις 13 Μαΐου 2013, με πρωτοβουλία του Υπουργείου Ναυτιλίας και Αιγαίου (ΥΝΑ) πραγματοποιήθηκε στον Πειραιά τριμερής συνάντηση εργασίας μεταξύ του Υπουργού Ναυτιλίας και Αιγαίου1 και των ομολόγων του υπουργών της Κύπρου και της Μάλτας. Η ατζέντα της συνάντησης αφορούσε την ανταλλαγή απόψεων και την προοπτική πιθανής διαμόρφωσης κοινής θέσης σε μια σειρά από τρέχοντα σημαντικά ζητήματα ναυτιλιακής πολιτικής σε επίπεδο Ε.Ε. Στο επίκεντρο της συνάντησης αυτής ήταν το υπό εξέλιξη αμφιλεγόμενο στην Ε.Ε. θέμα της υποστήριξης κοινής Ευρωπαϊκής θέσης όλων των Κρατών-Μελών (Κ-Μ) της Ε.Ε. στον ΙΜΟ, με απώτερο μάλιστα και τελικό στόχο από πλευράς Ευρωπαϊκής Επιτροπής την τυπική και ουσιαστική υποκατάστασή τους στον ανωτέρω οργανισμό από την Ε.Ε., με την ιδιότητά της ως αυτόνομης νομικής οντότητας. Η προοπτική αυτή έχει ανοίξει έναν διάλογο στην Ε.Ε. με διιστάμενες απόψεις και αντικρουόμενα επιχειρήματα, με βάση όμως την εμπειρία του παρελθόντος φαίνεται να έχει περισσότερα αρνητικά παρά θετικά στοιχεία για την ελληνική ναυτιλία αλλά και γενικότερα για την εύρυθμη και αποτελεσματική λειτουργία του ΙΜΟ ως διεθνούς ναυτιλιακού οργανισμού παγκόσμιας εμβέλειας. Η προαναφερθείσα λοιπόν πρωτοβουλία της ηγεσίας του ΥΝΑ δείχνει ότι έχει γίνει αντιληπτή η σοβαρότητα του ζητήματος και στην Ελλάδα, ενώ η προοπτική ανάλογης και συγκροτημένης συνέχειας, με διευρυμένη συμμετοχή και άλλων Κ-Μ της Ε.Ε., σηματοδοτεί τη θετική έκβαση της συγκεκριμένης κίνησης, ειδικότερα δε για τα συμφέροντα της ελληνικής (σημαία) αλλά και ελληνόκτητης (ελληνικών συμφερόντων) ναυτιλίας.

How are international phenomena rendered knowable? By which means and practical devices is international knowledge generated? In this article I draw on the case of contemporary maritime piracy to introduce a research framework that allows addressing these questions. Arguing that the practices of international knowledge generation are weakly understood, I show how concepts from science and technology studies provide us with the tools to study these practices empirically. Relying on the practice theory of Karin Knorr Cetina, I introduce the concepts of epistemic infrastructures, epistemic practice, and laboratories and demonstrate how they spur interesting insights on knowledge generation. I investigate three ‘archetypes’ of epistemic practices in detail and show how these generate knowledge about piracy for the United Nations: the quantification practices of the International Maritime Organization, the interpretation work of a Monitoring Group and the net-work of a Special Adviser. The article introduces an innovative agenda for studying knowledge generation in international relations by focusing on the practical epistemic infrastructures that maintain knowledge about international phenomena.

This article discusses the International Maritime Organization's (IMO) theme for 2013, namely, “Sustainable Development: IMO’s Contribution beyond Rio+20.” The theme will serve for the World Maritime Day, coinciding on 26 September 2013. The article highlights some of IMO's more salient achievements in its 55 years of existence in the quest for sustainability. Challenges and limitations in IMO's governance paradigms are also emphasised, pointing to measured expectations.

La contaminación del mar es hoy en día uno de los problemas más graves producidos por el ser humano y que afectan, aunque no queramos, al equilibrio del planeta.
Podemos conducirnos por el mar convencidos de que nuestras acciones y actuaciones son algo realmente insignificante e irrelevante, o podemos informarnos y ser consecuentes, convencidos de que nuestro pequeño granito de arena ayudará,
si no a mejorar este mundo, por lo menos a no estropearlo más.
Según la Convención Internacional sobre Vertidos de Londres celebrada en 1972, por Contaminación Marina se entiende:
“La introducción de desechos u otras materias en el mar, resultante directa o indirectamente de actividades humanas, que tenga o pueda tener efectos perjudiciales tales como causar
daño a los recursos vivos y a los ecosistemas marinos, entrañar peligros a la salud del hombre, entorpecer la actividades marítimas, incluida la pesca y otros usos legítimos del mar,
deteriorar la calidad del agua de mar en lo que se refiere a su utilización y menoscabar las posibilidades de esparcimiento”.
Tenemos que decir que lamentablemente este fenómeno va creciendo a lo largo de los años, al mismo paso que se desarrolla la humanidad, y va socavando el equilibrio ambiental
que sostiene al planeta.
