Sažetak
The paper analyzes sources of law for the ecosystem approach to protection and preservation of marine environment, particularly the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, 1982, the Convention on Biological Diversity, 1992, United Nations Conference on the Human Environment, 1972, United Nations Conference on Environment and Development, 1992, FAO Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries, 1995 and Thematic Strategy on the Protection and Conservation of Marine Environment, 2005. Besides reviewing the principles of ecosystem approach, as well as comparing the conventional and ecosystem approach to ecological issues, the author advocates and puts forward proposals for the implementation of ecosystem approach in protection and preservation of marine environment. In authorʼs opinion in the case of the Republic of Croatia it is necessary along with the procedure of harmonization of Croatian legislation with the European Union, to institute the new national institutional framework for implementation of multiple targets of the ecosystem approach, as a part of national policy of integrated management of marine resources.
