New Book: Piracy in World History

Fresh from Amsterdam University Press, Piracy in World History, edited by LNUC Concurrences members Stefan Amirell and Hans Hägerdal together with affiliated member Bruce Buchan, Griffith University, is now available!

Piracy in World History highlights the relevance of European and non-European understandings of piracy to the development of global maritime security and freedom of navigation. It explores the significance of ‘legal posturing’ on the part of those accused of piracy, as well as the existence of non-European laws and regulations regarding piracy in the early modern era.
