Yearbook on the Law of the Sea (YLoS)

aaaASCOMARE Yearbook on the Law of the Sea 

[Scopus Indexed | ISSN 3035-1448 | Winner of the 2024 Blue Ambassadord Award for Ocean Literacy]

The Yearbook on the Law of the Sea (YLoS) is a peer-reviewed publication of the Associazione di Consulenza in Diritto del Mare (ASCOMARE), dedicated to fostering a comparative and informed dialogue on cutting-edge and interdisciplinary issues within the field of the law of the sea.

Launched in 2021 with its inaugural volume on Law of the Sea, Interpretation, and Definitions, the editorial project has since attracted the support of leading law of the sea institutions and the contributions of distinguished scholars and practitioners, including professors of international law and judges of international courts and tribunals. Notably, YLOS was referenced in A/CN.4/761/Add.1 by the United Nations International Law Commission.

Recognised with the 2024 Blue Ambassador Award for Ocean Literacy, and now indexed in Scopus, YLoS has established itself as a reference point for lawyers, judicial bodies, policymakers, legal practitioners, and researchers. It also serves students, NGOs, and the private sector, providing accessible tools to develop a coherent understanding of the international legal framework governing maritime spaces and activities.

In line with ASCOMARE’s mission to advance knowledge-sharing and promote a universal understanding of the law of the sea, YLoS is published in English in a fully open-access digital format. This ensures that academic research – too often confined behind substantial paywalls – is available worldwide, regardless of geographical barriers. A printed edition is also produced for purchase.
