Maritime Counter - Terrorism

Instances of sea-piracy in the Malacca Straits and Arabian Sea in the recent past have added to the international community's concern over maritime security and have posed a new challenge to security agencies across the world.

This concern and the quest for new and effective approaches to intelligence gathering the security policies have let to a lot of debate, research and conferences. Maritime Counter-terrorism is the first book on this theme to be published from India.

An edited compilation of papers presented at a two-day workshop on maritime counter-terrorism organized by the Observer Research Foundation, this book has contributions from leading experts from the Asia Pacific, South Asia and Southeast Asia.

This book is a natural sequel to Terrorism in Southeast Asia: Implications for South Asia by the ORF, and a much-awaited work.
