  • Porisa Libya Smugglers
    Smuggling Networks in Libya Nancy Porsia, Freelance journalist, March 2015 Introduction This report is based on my work as freelance journalist in Libya since 2013, during which I have often focused on the phenomena of migration across the sea and smuggling networks, and conducted extensive interviews with all actors involved – migrants, smugglers, state officials and militias. In the central Mediterranean region, Libya is one of the main transit routes for migrants; here the phenomenon acquires significant proportions since 2002 with the transit of migrants from the Horn of Africa. Since then the number of migrants flowing into Libya has gradually increased. However the previous regime used to play ‘border diplomacy’ leveraging the threat perceived by European states in relation to migration in order to bargain its power in the international arena. In this political frame the numbers of migrants in transit through Libya and heading to Europe were under control. Only in 2008 the migrants’ flow reached the peak with 37,000 migrants registered on the Italian shores. In the same year the Treaty of Friendship between Italy and Libya marked a turning point over the relations of the two countries and in 2009 the regime launched a crackdown on the smuggling business in Libya: all the factories of wooden boats along the Libyan coast were shutdown and big number of smugglers were arrested. In 2010 the number of arrivals in Italy dropped to 4400, a decrease of almost 90% in just two years. The departures massively resumed only after the outbreak of the Revolution in 2011, when the smugglers were released and pushed by the regime to cram migrants into boats and send them to Europe, as revenge on European countries support to the revolutionaries on the ground.

  • UNHCR Contributions Report of the Secretary-General on Oceans And
    UNHCR Contributions Report of the Secretary-General on Oceans and the Law of the Sea, Part II June 2020 1. In the absence of safer means to seek international protection, refugees and other persons under UNHCR’s mandate continued to resort to dangerous journeys by sea in many parts of the world including in the Mediterranean Sea, in the Bay of Bengal and in the Andaman Sea. They often move along migrants seeking better life using the services of smugglers and, in many instances exposing themselves to the risks of being trafficked, kidnaped for ransom purposes or subjected to unhuman and degrading treatments. During the reporting period UNHCR continued to pursue and support protection at sea, through advocacy in support of effective, cooperative and protection-sensitive approaches to search and rescue and disembarkation arrangements; through operational activities at places of disembarkation or arrival by sea; and through supporting access to asylum and other longer-term action on addressing the drivers of dangerous journeys. Mediterranean Sea 2. Between 1 September 2019 and 22 June 2020, some 71,400 refugees and migrants crossed the Mediterranean Sea to Europe, of which 20,600 did so in 2020. Nearly 60% of sea arrivals in this period were to Greece (after crossing from Turkey), with 18% each arriving to Spain (crossing from Morocco and Algeria) and Italy (primarily crossing from Libya and Tunisia). Arrivals to Europe in this period represent a 4% decrease compared to the period between September 2018 and June 2019. Many of those crossing the sea since September 2019 likely had international protection needs, supported by the fact that some 43% of sea arrivals in this period were nationals of Afghanistan and the Syrian Arab Republic.

  • Search and Rescue, Disembarkation and Relocation Arrangements in the Mediterranean Sailing Away from Responsibility? Sergio Carrera and Roberto Cortinovis No
    Search and rescue, disembarkation and relocation arrangements in the Mediterranean Sailing Away from Responsibility? Sergio Carrera and Roberto Cortinovis No. 2019-10, June 2019 Abstract Search and Rescue (SAR) and disembarkation of persons in distress at sea in the Mediterranean continue to fuel divisions among EU member states. The ‘closed ports’ policy declared by the Italian Ministry of Interior in June 2018, and the ensuing refusal to let NGO ships conducting SAR operations enter Italian ports, has resulted in unresolved diplomatic rows between some European governments and EU institutions, and grave violations of the human rights of people attempting to cross the Mediterranean. This paper examines how current political controversies surrounding SAR and disembarkation in the Mediterranean unfold in a policy context characterised by a ‘contained mobility’ paradigm that has materialised in the increasing penalisation of humanitarian SAR NGOs, a strategic and gradual operational disengagement from SAR activities by the EU and its member states, and the delegation of containment tasks to the Libyan coast guard (so-called ‘pullbacks’), a development that has been indirectly supported by EU institutions. These policies have contributed to substantially widen the gap in SAR capabilities in the Central Mediterranean. This research has been conducted under the ReSOMA project. ReSOMA receives funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under the grant agreement 770730.

  • Captain Suvarat Magon, in Maritime Security Strategy
    海幹校戦略研究 2019 年 12 月（9-2） ROLE OF THE INDIAN NAVY IN PROVIDING MARITIME SECURITY IN THE INDIAN OCEAN REGION Captain Suvarat Magon, IN Introduction India is the third largest and one of the fastest growing economies in the world today based on gross domestic product (GDP) measured in terms of purchasing power parity (PPP). India is a peninsular maritime nation straddling Indian Ocean with 7,517 km of coastline, 2.37 million square kilometers of exclusive economic zone (EEZ) encompassing 1,197 island territories in the Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal and supporting world’s second largest population on a continental landmass of the seventh largest country. Consequently, India’s hunger for energy and need for resources to support rapid economic and industrial growth makes its dependence on the IOR a strategic imperative. In this environment of expansion of sea trade to far off and diverse shores kissed by waters of the Indian Ocean and beyond, competition with other powers to fulfill the ever-growing needs of own population and the corresponding surge towards overall development, the security of the seas is likely to be a key to progress of the nation and therefore assumes critical importance especially in the prevailing environment of multifarious challenges that range from traditional at one extant to threat of piracy, terrorism, smuggling, trafficking and hybrid type to other extant. The Indian Navy’s (IN’s) 2015 Maritime Security Strategy clearly enunciates security in the IOR as an unambiguous necessity for progression of national interests and it can thus be deduced that maritime security would continue to drive the government’s policies and navy’s strategy in times to come.

  • The Persistence of Colonialism
    The Persistence of Colonialism A Century of Italo-Libyan Relationships and Their Influence on the Current European Migration Regime in the Mediterranean (1911–2017) Mathias Hatleskog Tjønn Master Thesis in Modern International and Transnational History, at the Department of Archaeology, Conservation and History, Spring 2019 university of oslo Preface The first person I owe a heartfelt thank you to, is my supervisor Patrick Bernhard. You gave me the impetus to hit the ground running and you have been a solid supporter ever since. I cannot claim to have reached anywhere near the high literary standards of either novelist, but I hope the thesis stays somewhat true to you suggestion of “more Heming- way, less Proust” in terms of its prose. I was also fortunate to have Elisabetta Cassina Wolff as my supervisor, who supplied much needed insight into Italian politics and history. At prio I could rely on Maria Gabrielsen Jumbert for further supervision. Your perspective, input and inspiration were greatly appreciated. Before deciding to enroll in the mitra program I spoke with both Johannes Due and Jørgen Jensehaugen. Thank you for the real talk and continued encouragement, gentlemen. Among the mitra faculty, particularly Daniel Maul, Klaus Nathaus and Kim Priemel deserve a tip of the hat. Of my fellow students I want to above all thank Lars Magne Tungland and Siw Ellen Lien Rysstad for our conversations. I would like to extend a warm thank you to Martin Baumeister, Sandra Heisel, Patricia Kern, Lutz Klinkhammer and Elisa Ritzmann as well as all their colleagues at the German Historical Institute in Rome, for giving me the opportunity to work with and learn from you.
