Abstract

Abstract Article 121 of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea continues to generate vigorous debate amongst interpreters. The aim of this article is to contribute to this prevailing debate by providing a systematic analysis of the provision, and a novel logical-mathematical interpretation of Article 121(3). Through these elements, it adds a textualist analysis of Article 121 to the toolbox of interpreters. An approach of this kind sheds light on the conceptual underpinning of the provision, and on the definition and demarcation of the different types of features regulated therein.
