Turned 60, is the Antarctic treaty system in good health
Signed in 1959, the Antarctic Treaty is usually hailed as an example of what states can achieve when they leave aside their interests and truly collaborate. It was over 30 years ago, however, that the last significant legal instrument of the Antarctic Treaty System (namely, the Protocol on Environmental Protection) was signed. Since then, no new legal instruments have been drafted, despite a number of growing internal and external challenges. In …
Our footprint on Antarctica competes with nature for rare ice-free land
Considerations for minimising the spread of infectious disease in Antarctic seabirds and seals
Before 1998, concern was raised over the potential for human activities in Antarctica to introduce infectious disease organisms to native wildlife. A workshop was held that year to address this issue. In the last decade, there has been a dramatic increase in human traffic to the Antarctic and the number of commercial tourists visiting the Antarctic has steadily risen. Personnel of national science programmes, though relatively few in numbers, hav…
Biological prospecting: The ethics of exclusive reward from Antarctic activity
Biological prospecting is being undertaken in the Antarctic and, as novel material starts to yield significantly higher commercial rewards, the Antarctic Treaty Consultative Parties might decide to regulate it through the Antarctic Treaty System. This will be problematic since activities are already being undertaken, patents have been filed and products developed. Furthermore, there are differing perceptions of the status of the Antarctic, with s…
Theatre sports in the Southern Ocean: Engagement options for Australia in whale research protest action
In the great whaling debate, fuelled twice yearly by the annual InternationalWhaling Commission meeting and the departure of the Japanese researchfleet for the Southern Ocean, silliness knows no bounds. 2008 was noexception, as the Southern Ocean again became the location of protestaction (sometimes provocative and potentially life-threatening) againstJapanese scientific research vessels. The Japanese are accused of whalingin a whale sanctuary of…
Australia's Antarctic agenda
Australia has had a long connection with, and significant national interests in, the Southern Ocean and Antarctica. The Australian Antarctic Territory comprises 42 per cent of Antarctica's landmass. Australia is not only a claimant state and original signatory to the Antarctic Treaty but has played a significant role in the development of what is termed the Antarctic Treaty System (ATS). This article aims to provide an overview of Australia's key…
Independent expeditions and Antarctic tourism policy
Discussions about the management of non-governmental activities in Antarctica have been handicapped by a lack of clarity in terminology. The term ‘tourism,’ for example, is used in a catch-all manner to describe activities as widely divergent and incommensurable as overflights by commercial jetliners and solo ski traverses of the ice cap. Recent debate about stricter regulation of independent expeditions has been similarly confused. This paper ex…
