Globalisation and Maritime Security

Maritime safety has traditionally focused on maritime conflict, maritime competition, maritime traffic (SLOC), and maritime warfare. The modern maritime security after the Cold War and the incident on September 11 have made tremendous changes, including worldwide cooperation and mutual understanding, becoming more complicated. Since the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (LOSC) has been fundamentally managing ocean issues for many years, it has been accepted as a fundamental treaty for resolving marine dilemmas.

Maritime security is worried, and intentional harm is expected through overthrow, destruction, and / or terrorism. The US Coast Guard (USCG) basically has three basic roles, of which maritime security plays an important role, and in fact it is steadily present in a series of devastating lawsuits beginning in 1917.
