Sumario:This thesis, entitled The International Legal Regime Of Submarine Cables: A Global Public Interest Regime, aims to analyze the legal regime governing submarine cables, identify its deficiencies and examine how they might be addressed by international law. The main idea of this research is that modern legal regime of submarine cables is fragmented and incomprehensive and consequently requires substantial and institutional changes. The study consists of three sections: the first section is devoted to the legal nature of submarine cables as an object of regulation; the second section addresses current legal regime of submarine cables on several levels such as public international law, domestic law of states and private international law; the third section, consolidating the analysis made in two previous sections, presents suggestions on how the existing legal regime might be changed to provide better submarine cables governance.
