The Arctic is subject to increasing levels of human activities and environmental stresses. The need to protect Arctic ecosystems and utilize the region’s resources sustainably necessitates effective and coordinated management of human activities. A potentially important instrument is marine spatial planning ( MSP ). The article analyses the potential of the European Union ( EU ) to contribute to the development and implementation of MSP , or related instruments, in the marine Arctic. Although we conclude that EU law relevant to MSP currently has very limited applicability in the region, either directly or through the so-called EEA EFTA States, there are still ways in which the EU may contribute to making activities in the marine Arctic more sustainable. In this context, the EU ’s new ‘policy for the Arctic’ could be an important instrument, but it will not by itself affect the region’s development or even guarantee concerted action by the EU Member States.

从边缘进行规划——欧盟在管理北极海洋活动的空间规划中的潜在作用

北极受到越来越多的人类活动和环境压力的影响。保护北极生态系统和可持续利用该地区资源的需要需要对人类活动进行有效和协调的管理。一个潜在的重要工具是海洋空间规划 (MSP)。本文分析了欧盟 (EU) 为北极海洋中 MSP 或相关工具的开发和实施做出贡献的潜力。尽管我们得出的结论是,与 MSP 相关的欧盟法律目前在该地区的适用性非常有限,无论是直接适用还是通过所谓的 EEA EFTA 成员国,欧盟仍然可以通过多种方式促进北极海洋活动的可持续性。在这种情况下,欧盟的新“北极政策”可能是一个重要的工具,
