The issue of the continental shelf delimitation on the Aegean Sea is one of the disputes pending between Turkey and Greece. This problem, which has gained visibility especially since the 70s, has become a purely political and diplomatic problem with the 1978 decision of the International Court of Justice, following the unilateral application of Greece. On the other hand, it is seen that many states have similar limitation problems and try to resolve them through the Court or different international judicial bodies. As a result, a serious accumulation of jurisprudence (case-law) has emerged on the issue of the delimitation of maritime areas by the judicial bodies. The predominant principle in the law of delimitation of maritime areas is that the delimitation should be done in a way that provides an equitable solution. This idea was also included in the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea. In this respect, since it would not be fair to make a delimitation based on an equidistance line to be drawn between the easternmost Greek islands and the Turkish mainland, it can be expected that a decision in this direction will not be made by the judicial organs. On the other hand, the view put forth by this study is that although it is thought that the decision of the Court may bring a result in favor of the Turkish theses in the light of case law, it should be known that once this decision is made, there will be no turning back and that the efforts to resolve this conflict through diplomacy and agreement which is the primary procedure in the 1982 Convention, should continue.
Uluslararas tahkim, devletleraras uyumazlklarn hukuk yoluyla kesin ve nihai bir ekilde çözülmesini amaçlayan barçl uyumazlk çözüm yöntemlerinden biridir.

Kamu hukuku alannda günümüz uluslararas tahkiminin kökenine ise Antik Yunan ve Antik Roma’da rastlanabilir. Orta Ça boyunca farkl biçimlerde uygulanan tahkim yönteminin modern devletlerin ortaya çkmasndan sonra etkinliini kaybettii görülür zira uluslararas tahkim barçl bir yöntem olarak savan karsndadr ve Modern Ça, uyumazlklarn çözümünde sava birincil yöntem olarak gören mutlakiyetçi egemen devletlerin sahne alandr.
