船舶遭劫持与船员国籍的非关联性探析

Relevance analysis between crew nationality and a vessel's vulnerability to seajack

文中在分析索马里海域状况和索马里海盗袭击商船的历史和现状的基础上,对国际海事组织(IMO)和国际海事局(IMB)提供的有关索马里地区调查数据进行了分析,尤其是对被海盗所劫持船舶的船员构成作了详细的分析,并由此证明船员国籍和船舶劫持之间是否存在某种关系,船员是否会因为种族或者文化的原因更容易(或不容易)成为索马里海盗的受害者等。论文的研究为认识海盗的真实原因和采取对海盗的打击和预防措施提供了依据。
