OLIVEIRA, Gilberto Carvalho de. The internal-external security nexus in the maritime security: the case of maritime criminality. []. , 40, pp.31-49. ISSN 1645-9199.

Based on the cases of piracy off the coast of Somalia and armed robbery against ships in Southeast Asia, this article brings to the maritime context the debate on the internal-external security nexus. The aim is to show that efforts to securitize the maritime crime in these regions constitute a kind of dispositif of governance that interferes with traditional arrangements of the ocean space and the traditional division of tasks in the maritime security domain, leading to an interpenetration of their internal and external dimensions.
