Piracy and international maritime crimes in asean: Prospects for cooperation

Abstract

'I can confidently say that this is the best book on the legal dimension of the problem of piracy in general, and of piracy in Southeast Asia and off the coast of Somalia in particular, and what we can do about it. Robert Beckman and Ashley Roach are two of the finest minds working in international law today. They have brought their knowledge and sharp analytical skills to edit a book of great relevance to the world's shipping industry, IMO, ASEAN and international lawyers and law enforcement agencies.' - Tommy Koh, President, Third United Nations Conference on the Law of the Sea. © The editors and contributors severally 2012.
