Antarctica is governed by The Antarctic Treaty, agreed to by governments representing about 80% of the earth's population.

Individuals who work on the continent are subjected to common peer-pressure from their mates to conduct themselves according to treaty guidelines. Individual governments are responsible for policing and governing/ managing their citizens while in service on the ice.
