This Manual underpins that technical support. It is used both as a training tool in the capacity-building work carried out by the Programme, and as a guide for criminal justice practitioners working on maritime cases.  \nThe second edition of the Manual contains an examination of a number of maritime crimes in detail for the first time, including the smuggling of migrants, terrorism, fuel theft and kidnap for ransom. The Manual also includes a new chapter on human rights at sea and new annexes, printed as separate publications, on the legal issues surrounding floating armouries and on the use of force by privately contracted security companies.  \nWe hope you find the Manual of use in your work.  \nAlan Cole  \nHead, Global Maritime Crime Programme  \nACKNOWLEDGEMENTS  \nThis Manual was prepared for the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) with significant contributions of the following academic experts:  \nRobert McLaughlin, Sofia Galani and Ian Ralby as principal contributors, with invaluable input and feedback from Henri Fouche; Douglas Guilfoyle; Wolff Heintschel von Heinegg; Yurika Ishii; Patricia Jimenez Kwast; Ali Kamal-Deen; Stuart Kaye; Natalie Klein; David Letts; Cameron Moore; Efthymios Papastavridis; Donald Rothwell; Tim Stephens and Andrey Todorov.  \nSincere thanks to experts from our Member States and colleagues from UNODC, the International Maritime Organization and the Division for Ocean Affairs and the Law of the Sea who participated in the lively chapter reviews at our two expert review meetings or provided comments to the Manual electronically.  \nThe group effort was not only enjoyable but has produced a great, practical product.  \nCONTENTS  \nPreface iii  \nPart I.
