This new handbook provides a comprehensive overview of the issues
facing naval strategy and security in the twenty-first century.
Featuring contributions from some of the world's premier
researchers and practitioners in the field of naval strategy and
security, this handbook covers naval security issues in diverse
regions of the world, from the Indian Ocean and the Mediterranean
to the Arctic and the piracy-prone waters off East Africa's coast.
It outlines major policy challenges arising from competing claims,
transnational organized crime and maritime terrorism, and details
national and alliance reactions to these problems. While this
volume provides detailed analyses on operational, judicial, and
legislative consequences that contemporary maritime security
threats pose, it also places a specific emphasis on naval strategy.
With a public very much focused on the softer constabulary roles
naval forces play (such as humanitarian assistance, disaster
relief, naval diplomacy, maintenance of good order at sea), the
overarching hard-power role of navies has been pushed into the
background. In fact, navies and seapower have been notably absent
from many recent academic discussions and deliberations of maritime
security. This handbook provides a much-desired addition to the
literature for researchers and analysts in the social sciences on
the relationship between security policy and military means on,
under, and from the sea. It comprehensively explains the state of
naval security in this maritime century and the role of naval
forces in it. This book will be of much interest to students of
naval security and naval strategy, security studies and IR, as well
as practitioners in the field.
