VATICAWC1TY.--ThePontificalJusticeandPeaceCommissionhas comeoutagainsttheideathattheoceansarethepropertyofno-oneandore thereforeopentogeneralexploitation.
Butitalsoopposedtheextensionofthe sovereigntiesofcoastalStatesintotheopen Sea.
Incontrasttotheseconcepts,thecommission recommendedapplicationtotheoceansandto otherresourcesoftheprincipleofthe"universalpurposeofcreatedthings."Explainingthis principle,thecommissionsaid:"Godgavethe earthincommontomen,tothehumanspecies asawhole.Allmen,allpeoples,musthave accesstothematerialgoodsoftheearth.And thisintum,fromtheviewpointofthesegoods, comestoreaffirmthattheyare,andwillremain intrinsicallywithauniversalpurpose."
Thecommission'sviewsweresetforthinan -pagedocumententitled"TheUniversalPurposeofCreatedThings:OntheConferenceon theLawoftheSea,"whichwaspublishedon AugThe viewust ofthelawofthehighseas"anres nullius(noone'sproperty)isnowobsolete," theVaticancommissionsaid.

Theconceptofthecommonheritageof mankindcouldbeextendedtootherareas.
COASTALSTATES'RIGHTS
But,theVaticancommissionsaid,theconceptoftheseasasthecommonheritageof mankind"hasfoundverylittleexpressionon apracticallevel".Itnotedthattherightof coastalStatestoclaiman"economicnine"of 200nauticalmilesseemedtohavebeensecured.
Asfarastherestoftheoceanwasconcerned, theprincipleofthecommonheritagehadbeen acceptedonlyfortheseabedandundersea resources,saidthecommission.Forthewater itselfandfishinginit,nationswereunwilling toacceptany"highauthority",andtechnologicallyadvancednationswanttoretaintheold conceptoftheoceanasnoone'sproperty.

Withregardtotheproblemoftheoceans andthenewinternationalordercurrentlydiscussedbyeconomists,politicaltheoristsand governmentofficials,thecommissionsaid: "Christianswouldbeseriouslyevadingtheir responsibilitiesiftheyignoredadebatewhich, eveninitsterminology,isdealingwithmatters withwhichtheChurch'ssocialteachingshas alwaysbeenconcerned."
Therealrightsinherentinvarioustypesof propertymost"besubordinatedtothecommon guidingprincipleoftheuniversalpurposeof goods",thecommissionsaid.
Itnotedthatinthepast,inoppositionto oppressiveinterferencebytheStatewithindividualfreedom,theChurchemphasisedthevalidityoftheprincipleofprivateownershipby meansofproduction.

"Inspiteofpermanentefforttodenounce abusesofpropertyandrecallthehigherprincipleoftheuniversalpurposeofcreatedthings," thecommissioncontinued,"manypeople,includingChristians,havepreferredtoretainonly theaspectofdefenceoftheirprivateproperty, ignoringthemorefundamentalprincipleinvolved."
