Sažetak
Piracy describes materially motivated forms of organised acts of piracy perpetrated against a ship, aiming at unrighteous acquisition of material and/or financial assets. In the worst cases piracy results in human casualties. This paper discusses the impact of acts of piracy closely connected to the sailing route selection and the safety of navigation. It presents piracy threatened areas in the world. Comparable areas are subject to comparative analysis. It is expected that before long, seamen will implement new protection measures aiming at obstructing acts of piracy, particularly when transporting special and commercially very valuable cargo. This paper suggests paths for development of protection measures and legal framework for their introduction.
