Piracy Prosecutions In National Courts, Maggie Gardner
Piracy Prosecutions In National Courts, Maggie Gardner
Maggie Gardner
At least for the time being, the international community must rely on national courts to prosecute modern-day pirates. The first wave of domestic piracy prosecutions suggests, however, that domestic courts have yet to achieve the necessary consistency and expertise in resolving key questions of international law in these cases. This article evaluates how courts trying modern-day pirates have addressed common questions of international law regarding the exercise of universal jurisdiction, the elements of the crime of piracy, and the principle of nullum crimen sine lege.

National Solutions To An International Scourge: Prosecuting Piracy Domestically As A Viable Alternative To International Tribunals, Kevin H. Govern
University of Miami International and Comparative Law Review
This article will assess both the problems and potential solutions to contemporary seaborne threats of piracy, robbery, and terrorism, and discuss challenges and opportunities for the domestic and international forums prosecuting the crimes that constitute piracy and maritime terrorism. In particular it will begin with a discussion of the (d)evolution of events in the late 20th Century, which has transformed the old problem of piracy into a modern scourge.

Is The Crime Of Piracy Obsolete?, Edwin D. Dickinson

"A few years ago it might have been surmised that in America at least a good deal of the old code in respect to piracy had passed from the law in reserve into the law in history. The important cases were nearly all one hundred years old or more....
