POSSIBLE EVOLUTIONS OF MARITIME TERRORISM
POSSIBLE EVOLUTIONS OF MARITIME TERRORISM

Summary/Abstract: Piracy resurgence resides in the failure of regional and global organisations to manage the evolution of specific phenomena of globalisation, including the widening disparities between rich and poor countries, religious intolerance and governance failure. In these circumstances, piracy has suffered mutations related to the association with terrorism and organised crime, boosting each other, in an unusual formula. One of the main causes that has led to the association of piracy with terrorism is the war started against terrorist organisations, aimed at reducing the funding of these organisations. The International Maritime Community has demonstrated the capability to counter terrorism and maritime piracy.
