One of the important debates during the Third United Nations Law of the Sea Conference concerned the regime of passage through straits used in international navigation. The result was the creation of a multi-tiered legal framework of passage that included the entirely a new “transit passage” regime. Although over thirty years have passed since the adoption of the 1982 United Nations Convention of the Law of the Sea, the vital role played by straits in the global communications network continues to be surrounded by conflicts between the interests of coastal states and shipping. Challenges still exist to achieving the simultaneous global goals of secure passage of vessels and protection of the marine environment.   In Navigating Straits: Challenges for International Law, internationally recognized international law scholars provide in-depth analysis of the legal challenges in straits concerning security, piracy, safety and environmental protection. All readers interested in international and law of the sea will find this seminal volume of interest.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePREFACE AND ACKNOWLEDGMENTS\t  TABLE OF CONTENTS\t  INTRODUCTION BY EDITORS\t  PART I  The Straits Regime in the 1982 Law of the Sea Convention\t  CHAPTER 1 THE GREAT STRAITS DEBATE: THE CONFLICT, DEBATE, AND COMPROMISE THAT SHAPED THE STRAITS ARTICLES OF THE 1982 UNITED NATIONS CONVENTION ON THE LAW OF THE SEA.  by Dean David D.
