This book explores contemporary maritime piracy in Southeast Asia,
demonstrating the utility of using historical context in developing
policy approaches that will address the roots of this resurgent
phenomenon. The depth and breadth of historical piracy help
highlight causative factors of contemporary piracy, which are
immersed in the socio-cultural matrix of maritime-oriented peoples
to whom piracy is still a "thinkable" option. The threats to life
and property posed by piracy are relatively low, but significant
given the strategic nature of these waterways that link the Pacific
and Indian Oceans, and because piracy is emblematic of broader
issues of weak state control in the littoral states of the region.
Maritime piracy will never be completely eliminated, but with a
progressive economic and political agenda aimed at changing the
environment from which piracy is emerging, it could once again
become the exception rather than the rule.
