The law that applies to maritime operations at sea is complex and
comprises two distinct elements: treaty law (1982 United Nations
Convention on the Law of the Sea), and the cases and incidents that
occur at sea in both peacetime and during armed conflict which
result in the creation of customary international law applicable to
maritime operations at sea. Covering sovereignty and vessel status,
jurisdiction and interdiction, freedom of navigation, maritime law
enforcement and security, and the law of naval warfare, this edited
collection brings together the most famous and influential cases
and incidents at sea. Exploring the entire spectrum of maritime
operations from 'high end' war-fighting to constabulary operations
that are conducted by naval forces and maritime law enforcement
agencies at sea to provide the factual circumstances of each case
or incident; offering sophisticated analysis and insights into the
case or incidents enduring importance, and their significance for
the development of the law applicable to maritime operations; and
offering a detailed account and evaluation of the most critical but
rarely understood cases in maritime operations law, which
encourages comparison between key cases, this book will be an
essential reference for practitioners, scholars, teachers, and
students of maritime operations law.

'Created’ by Steven Spielberg yet officially directed by Tobe
Hooper, Poltergeist (1982) can be best described as ‘family
horror movie’ both in its target audience and in its narrative
context, the story of an All-American suburban family, the
Freelings, whose home suddenly becomes the site of a spectacular
haunting, apparently summoned by their young daughter. The film is
somewhat of an anachronism and this Devil's Advocate explores this
in both the scope of production and narrative. The book discusses
the duality of the text highlighting debates surrounding both
Spielberg's somewhat saccharine portrayal of middle-class Americana
and his more subversive cinematic endeavours. The duality of the
text also will also be discussed in the context of the film's
production – with both Spielberg and Hooper on set for much of
the time, the result was a movie with the production values,
effects and marketing of a high budget mainstream cinema
blockbuster apparently directed by a subversive 'grindhouse' cinema
auteur. Yet Poltergeist is neither nor both of those things,
instead being a unique hybrid of genres and styles taking the best
and worst from both aspects of family blockbuster and cult horror
film, and as such can be seen as a text that is something unique
– a classic modern take on the traditional haunted house story.
The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) has achieved
deeper regional market integration to lay a socio-economic
foundation for the development of a regional community, yet
inter-state trust is by no means assured as Southeast Asian nations
remain steadfast in maintaining their political regime stability
against external interference. However, through its institutional
practices, ASEAN has emerged as a distinct model of security
institution, while the region's contemporary security landscape has
diversified with various non-traditional security issues. By
looking beyond the veneer of diplomacy and prevailing political
circumstances, this book examines the legal nature and form of
ASEAN's authority to address diverse regional security issues. It
provides a fresh perspective on ASEAN's role as a security
institution. With an interdisciplinary analysis, this book reveals
the normative role that ASEAN plays in facilitating the processes
of norm development, localisation and internalisation as it deals
with contemporary security challenges confronting Southeast Asia.
