  • Who Are the Pirates? Somali Piracy and Environmental Justice in Alakrana, Stolen Seas and Captain Phillips1
    Downloaded from https://academic.oup.com/isle/article-abstract/26/1/189/5256992 by Bethel University user on 15 April 2019 VIRGINIA LUZO N-AGUADO Who are the Pirates? Somali Piracy and Environmental Justice in Alakrana, Stolen Seas and Captain Phillips1 Can anyone ever really be for piracy? Outside of sea bandits and young girls fantasizing of Johnny Depp, would anyone with an honest regard for good human conduct really say that they are in support of sea robbery? Well, in Somalia, the an- swer is: it’s complicated.... It seems to me that this new mod- ern crisis is truly a question of justice, but also a question of whose justice. –K’naan,2 quoted in Vazquez 1. Introduction This article seeks to analyze three interrelated texts, specifically the Spanish miniseries Alakrana (2011), the independent US documentary film Stolen Seas, and the Hollywood big-budget production Captain Phillips (2013), which, though produced in very different contexts, dealt with comparable transnational issues. All three of them were based on real events, namely the hijacking of a merchant boat or fishing trawler by Somali pirates in the Indian Ocean. This analysis will be pri- marily carried out from an ecocritical perspective but will also take into account the ways in which different generic parameters, in ISLE: Interdisciplinary Studies in Literature and Environment 26.1 (Winter 2019), pp. 189–210 Advance Access publication December 21, 2018 doi:10.1093/isle/isy087 VC The Author(s) 2018.

  • The London School of Economics and Political Science the Ideological Origins of Piracy in International Legal Thought Tor Krever
    The London School of Economics and Political Science The ideological origins of piracy in international legal thought Tor Krever A thesis submitted to the Department of Law of the London School of Economics for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, London, May 2018 1 Declaration I certify that the thesis I have presented for examination for the PhD degree of the London School of Economics and Political Science is solely my own work other than where I have clearly indicated that it is the work of others (in which case the extent of any work carried out jointly by me and any other person is clearly identified in it). The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. Quotation from it is permitted, provided that full acknowledgement is made. This thesis may not be reproduced without my prior written consent. I warrant that this authorisation does not, to the best of my belief, infringe the rights of any third party. I declare that my thesis consists of 88,133 words. 2 Abstract This thesis explores the origins of the pirate in international legal thought. It takes as its starting point the recent wave of piracy off the coast of Somalia, mapping the image of the pirate constructed by contemporary legal commentators. The figure of the pirate that takes shape is the archetype of illegitimacy and epitome of enmity in international law: hostis humani generis. Where and when did this figure first emerge in international legal thought? My argument is twofold. First, against dominant transhistorical accounts which project the pirate backwards in an unbroken arc from the present to antiquity, I show that its juridical identity has been marked by fundamental discontinuities and transformations.
