During the 20th century, a series of international conferences were held to codify the law, but the diversity of positions made this impossible. The objective of this paper is to analyze the consolidation of the 200-mile doctrine and to highlight the principles that underlie this doctrine. To do so, it examines the circumstances in Peru that support this position. It also examines the relevant historical events and the different positions on the issue at the international level. It concludes that the 200-mile doctrine is the appropriate framework for resource exploitation and the best one to adapt to the diversity of situations.
