abstract:
In the last ten years, illegal immigration by sea in makeshift boats has considerably
affected the Mediterranean Sea. It is a phenomenon managed to a great extent
by criminal organizations.
The article reviews the limits of police forces’ authority to prevent and contain
the illegal traffic of immigrants on foreign-flag or stateless vessels. The policies of containment
and control of such migratory flows by the destination States have to be coordinated
with international obligations on matters of safety of human life at sea: identification
of the State obliged to assure the organization of the rescue (according to the
1979 Hamburg SAR Convention), method of rescue and landing of rescued persons
in a safe harbor.
