Marine Science and the Law of the Sea

Christopher K. Vanderpool

Department of Sociology, Michigan State University, East Lansing, Michigan 48824, USA.

The sociology of science has remained silent on the manner in which international law transforms the structure of scientific communities and the patterns of interaction among scientists. The effect of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea on marine science provides an opportunity for exploring the impact of international law on science. The history of the Law of the Sea treaty negotiations and the on-going knowledge generating processes of marine scientific research clearly reveal the political-economic context of international science and provide a basis for future studies in the sociology of science.
