Abstract

The double goals of this text are to highlight that ocean governance has been partially disconnected
from scientific knowledge due to its century-long historical evolution based more on sovereign stateoriented international law than on the duty to cooperate for the vital interest of humankind. The second
goal is to present the ocean governance paradox, since the ocean is the most important life supporting
system, but ocean governance is extremely fragmented and inadequate to tackle global sustainability
challenges, such as global warming, acidification and biodiversity loss. As a result, we present the
global and the national perspectives as examples of the fragmentation of the oceanic governance.
