Year: 2026 Language: English Author: Sabella Abidde, Walters Samah (Editors) Genre: Textbook / Research book Publisher: Palgrave Macmillan Cham Edition: 1st (January 2026) ISBN: 9783031892264 Format: PDF Quality: eBook Pages count: 535 Description: This book examines the occurrence and repercussions of insecurity on Africa’s oceans and seas, their impact on state sovereignty, national security, and the economy, and looks at how it could be moderated, eradicated, or combated. Maritime security is generally and primarily associated with piracy in the world’s oceans. But it is expansive and broader than that. As such, the book also looks at extralegal activities such as illegal fishing, kidnapping, human trafficking, smuggling, pollution and erosion, terrorism, that occur not only in the world’s oceans but also in regional seas, rivers and ports. The authors also focus on how national measures to combat maritime insecurity work alongside inter-governmental organizations and legislation such as the International Maritime Organization (IMO), the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea, and the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS).
