Regional Strategies to Maritime Security: A Comparative Perspective

This MARSAFENET Editorial Project is based on the outcomes of the related Workshop (held in the Rectorado of the University of Cór-doba, Spain, on 27th November 2013), and on further research activities, including those carried out within the framework of the Marsafenet Working Group n. 4 on “The protection of fragile and semi-enclosed seas”. Likewise, it has also been developed under the umbrella of the national Research Project “El Derecho del Mar y la Unión Europea” DER2013-47863-P (Ministerio Español de Economía y Competitividad). The aim of this Workshop Editorial Project was to investigate current maritime security issues from a comparative perspective with a focus on identifying appropriate responses in terms of regional strategies which present various characteristics and are found in areas which may be under different legal regimes.
