Résumé ou extrait

• This book examines whether or not state failure is a useful and accurate explanation for Somali piracy and if violent Islamism could exploit what the pirates have achieved for their own ends. It reviews the history, motivation, organisation, criminal methods and operational tactics of the Somali pirates from their first manifestations in the early-1990s to the present and attempts to show that their activities and their fortunes are linked to the rise and fall of political groups within Somalia. Martin Murphy asks how and why violent Islamist groups operate within Somalia and how far they might exploit the maritime dimension in the future. Finally he reviews whether or not the political and military solutions being practised or proposed currently will resolve either problem.
