Abstract

Maritime disputes persist as an ongoing diplomatic problem which combines various issues of sovereign powers with resource extraction freedoms and navigation guidelines as well as environmental preservation. The paper investigates how international tribunal courts manage complex international conflicts through law-based methods instead of political power struggles. The research examines institutional background along with jurisdictional boundaries as well as analytical methods and significant cases while examining tribunal efficiency and future possibilities to assess judicial bodies' influence on maritime dispute settlements. Maritime conflict resolution through international tribunals depends heavily on state recognition and combined diplomatic methods together with execution systems for their developed advanced methods of jurisdiction. The paper recommends strategic improvements for maritime dispute resolution in present day where oceanic areas and resources face growing competition.
