11 An example of such a concept is the emergence of the continental shelf doctrine between 1951—the date of the Abu Dhabi arbitration, 18 Int'l. L. Rev. 156 (no. 37) (1951), 1 Int'l & Comp. L. Q. 247 (1952)—and 1969, the date of the International Court of Justice's decision in the North Sea Continental Shelf cases, [1969] ICJ REP. 3. For a discussion of the evolution of the continental shelf doctrine in these terms, see Goldie, The International Law Commission and the Progressive Development of International Law, 28 Fed. B.
