Sommario/riassunto

The vast size and highly unregulated nature of the world's waterways have. made the maritime environment an increasingly attractive theater for. perpetrators of transnational violence. Piracy and sea-borne terrorism have. been on the rise since 2000. While the United States has spearheaded several. important initiatives to improve maritime



security, the author urges. policymakers to consider four additional measures to safeguard the world's. oceans.
