This book examines the evolution, function, problems and prospects
of private security companies in the maritime sector. The private
security industry continues to evolve after its renaissance over
the past few decades, first in Africa, and later in Iraq and
Afghanistan. Despite this, little academic work has been done to
date on the role of private security in the maritime environment.
This lacuna has become more pronounced as the threat of piracy,
terrorism, and other acts of maritime political violence have
caused littoral states and commercial entities alike to consider
the use of private security to mitigate risks. Maritime Private
Security is an edited volume specifically dedicated to combating
the absence of academic research in this area. The discussion of
this multi-faceted subject is organised into four key parts: Part
I: The Historical and Contemporary Market in Maritime Private
Security Services Part II: The Emergence of Private Anti-Piracy
Escorts in the Commercial Sector Part III: The Privatization of
Coast Guard Services Part IV: Private Security Responses to
Maritime Terrorism This book will be of much interest to students
of naval policy and maritime security, private security companies,
piracy and terrorism, international law and IR in general.
