Maritime Security in the Mediterranean Region (Special Issue)

By Giacomo Morabito

The Mediterranean Sea has 'returned' to the center of the global political arena, after that the Cold War's system of blocks had temporarily reduced its importance. This centrality is due to the fact that this area is a crucial joint for world maritime traffic, and for the concentration of many issues related to security, such as regional conflicts and transnational threats. The book aims to contribute to maritime security in the Mediterranean area, analyzing the related main challenges such as migratory flows, arms and drugs trafficking, and terrorism. In order to face these challenges, it is necessary ensuring the security of the maritime domain that requires well coordinated and integrated resources among the countries. In addition to achieve security cooperation, Mediterranean countries should also adopt effective measures to promote economic and social development, with the aim of preventing threats and 're-building' an area of strong stability in a strategic region for international trade.
