Legal Reflections on the Protection of Legitimate Expectations in Maritime Law Enforcement

Abstract

The principle of legitimate expectation protection is an important rule in maritime law enforcement, which aims to safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of ships and crew members, and promote maritime safety and order. With the development of global trade and the shipping industry, maritime law enforcement issues have become increasingly prominent, making the principle of legitimate expectation protection a key to solving these problems. From a jurisprudential perspective, this paper conducts a study on the principle of legitimate expectation protection in maritime law enforcement. Starting with the current situation of maritime law enforcement at home and abroad, it analyzes the jurisprudential basis and practical significance of legitimate expectation protection, explores its practical application in maritime law enforcement, and puts forward legal suggestions for improving the principle in light of the legal problems faced by current maritime law enforcement.
