碩士 / 國立臺灣海洋大學 / 海洋法律研究所 / 92 / Abstract

With the mass population increasing on the earth, the rapid improvement of science, and the blooming development of economy, the living standards of human beings have been improved. However, it threatens the environment, leads to lots of environmental pollutions, and exhausts the natural resources. In order to solve these problems, United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) brought the term of “Sustainable Development” which has been the mainstream of the international society. However, when GATT was established in 1947, there were seldom concerns about sustainable development. There are only few articles involved to environmental issues, such as GATT §20.2 and §20.7.
After the establishment of WTO in 1995, according to the Preamble of the Agreement Establishing the WTO, the issues of sustainable development and the conservation of fishery resources have attracted to some international attentions. Therefore, under the WTO framework, the agreements related to the conservation of fishery resources, such as SPS Agreement, NTB Agreement, SCM Agreement, and Dispute Settlement Understanding, intend to find the balance of trade and environment.
Hence, in order to face the international obligation after becoming the member of the WTO and pursue the conservation of the fishery resources, Taiwan should make reactive rules and policies which could be recognized by the international society, and take aggressive participations in international fishery organizations and conventions by the name of “fishing entity ” to accomplish its international obligation.
