[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kang Woo-kwon] The International Maritime Issues Research Institute of Korea Maritime and Ocean University announced on the 2nd that it has published two research books, "The Sea and Territorial Disputes" and "Ships and Law."

Published as part of the Humanities Korea Plus (HK+) supported project series "Maritime Humanities," "The Sea and Territorial Disputes" examines the world's maritime territorial disputes, one of the hottest issues related to the sea, from humanities and social science perspectives, offering diagnosis and solutions.

It also reviews cases of maritime territorial disputes occurring in the Pacific Ocean, Atlantic Ocean, Arctic Ocean, and Antarctic Ocean, providing realistic diagnoses and clues for solutions.

"Ships and Law" (authored by Choi Jin-yi) helps readers understand the legal system related to ships, which forms the foundation of maritime affairs involving human maritime activities and ship navigation activities mediated by the sea. It broadly covers the relationship between human civilization and ships, the nationality system of ships, the tonnage system of ships, and the public notice system for ships (ship registration and ship documentation), among other aspects of ship law.

The International Maritime Issues Research Institute has been conducting the Humanities Korea Plus project since 2018 with support from the National Research Foundation of Korea, proposing solutions to current issues surrounding the relationship between the sea and humans through interdisciplinary collective research.
