Abstract
Along with liability for breaking the law, international law recognizes the liability of states for legal activities. The legal liability of a state has taken on increasing importance in the law of the sea and in maritime law. In both normalizations have taken place relating to, inter alia, the liability or co-liability of a state for ecological damage, and also the liability of a state for entities that exploit the sea bed, or what is under the surface of the sea bed, outside the jurisdiction of littoral states. In an approach to these issues, the Commission for International Law agreed in 200 I on a further project for regulations on preventing cross-border damage resulting from dangerous activities.
