Maritime Piracy: A Sustainable Global Solution, Paul Williams, Lowry Pressly Jan 2013

Maritime Piracy: A Sustainable Global Solution, Paul Williams, Lowry Pressly

Articles in Law Reviews & Other Academic Journals

Maritime piracy is a complex transnational security concern characterized by emerging international finance operations and organization, an oversupply of labor, and a low cost of market entry.
