CHINA'S RESPONSE TO INTERNATIONAL FISHERIES LAW AND POLICY: NATIONAL ACTION AND REGIONAL COOPERATION The study pinpoints the fact that China’s fisheries development, particularly the problems it has encountered, including its excessive fishing capacity, economic incentives, population pressures, and a weak institutional framework, reflect the global situation and provides a basis for understanding the driving forces behind a gradual loss of control of fishing capacity leading to the depletion of resources. China’s national action and regional cooperation mirrors the overall effort of the international community in searching for possible solutions to address the fisheries crisis.The study emphasises that the LOSC will remain as a dynamic instrument and a point of reference for the legal norms at the global, regional and national levels to deal with the countless issues of fisheries management. The post-LOSC instruments will stand as guidelines for states to conserve and manage fisheries resources on the way to achieving sustainable fisheries. States like China will have to fully commit themselves to their obligations and responsibilities to achieve sustainable fisheries management.
