Summary: | This 1980 doctoral dissertation from the Graduate Institute at the University of Geneva in Geneva, Switzerland examines the international legal regime for the conduct of scientific research in three areas that are, in a sense, beyond national jurisdiction- those three areas being outer space, the Antarctic and the oceans. It does so by looking at: general principles regulating the use of the three areas; fundamental rules relating specifically to scientific research; limitations on the freedom or right to conduct scientific research; specific obligations as they pertain to scientific research activities; and miscellaneous rules. The Thesis ends with a series of conclusions that are gleaned from the treaties, case law and practice that are examined in the body of the Thesis.
