Hi all! I am a first year master law student at the Free University of Brussels, Belgium - http://www.vub.ac.be . This year I am preparing my master thesis concerning the protection of whales in international law. Purpose of this preparation is to start writing my thesis with a decent background on the subject. I have already found numerous articles but, like in all researches, it can always be more! So, I am looking for articles subjecting whales in a juridical manner and/or people who can teach me more about whaling approaches. Some examples: information about the relation between the IWC and the ICRW, articles on the case "Whaling in the Antarctic - Australia v. Japan" brought before the ICJ and any other previous cases concerning whales (in an international context), actions of conservation groups, texts about whaling practices in Norway and Iceland, the moratorium v. revised management,.... One little disadvantage is that it is mandatory to write my thesis in Dutch. Although, if many people are interested in the outcome (expected at the end of June 2013), I am willing to translate it in English in the second half of 2013). Anyone who is interested in helping me can reach me at following address: van.den.broeck.eline@gmail.com Hopeful and with kindest regards, Eline Van den Broeck
