Perspectivas dos tratados internacionais e da legislação nacional voltados à pesca no espaço marinho brasileiro

Perspectives of international treaties and national legislation aimed at fishing in the Brazilian marine space

Resumo

This article seeks to analyze the planning of fishing activities in the Brazilian marine space, based on international agreements and International Organizations in which Brazil participates, in order to value the impact on the national legislation. Currently, Brazil has an area of 3,500,000 km² under maritime zone jurisdiction, besides, the country is responsible for the management and economic exploitation of this space. Thus, it is essential to coordinate the planning of the national marine space, considering the international treaties that set conditions for this structure. This paper seeks to analyze the main commitments of the International Organizations focused on fishing activity and the legal arrangement in Brazil related to fishing activities. Through the analysis of the implementation and intentions of the agreements, we seek to evaluate the public policies to encourage fishing and protect the Brazilian marine space.
