Historically, operations and studies regarding maritime security
focus on individual threats (e.g., piracy, terrorism, narcotics,
etc.) and individual measures to target them (e.g., counter-piracy,
counter-terrorism, counter-narcotics). This book explores, for the
first time, an overall strategy for maritime security, integrating
these issues into a single framework. Tallis argues that as
maritime security threats rise in sophistication, it will be
increasingly appealing to apply military resources to counter them.
Military tactics, however, may not be the ideal mechanisms for
addressing challenges that are often closer to crime than they are
to war. Leveraging the sea services' capabilities, without overly
militarizing maritime security, is a complicated problem set that
requires a more strategic and partner-oriented approach to the
challenge. At stake, in Tallis' estimation, is the war for
tomorrow's most important communities, their human security, and
the muddy waters on which they and the global system rely.
