摘要

联合国安理会继续在确保维护国际和平与安全方面发挥关键作用。为此目的，安理会多年来一直将几内亚湾的海盗行为界定为对国际和平与安全的威胁。自2011年以来，安理会通过第2018号和第2039号决议，采取了类似于其在亚丁湾的做法，基本上是军事化的方法来应对该地区的海盗威胁。尽管威胁级别开始下降，几内亚湾仍然被认为是海上热点。正是在这一背景下，安理会才开始重新考虑其军事化做法，以包括非动态措施。安理会认识到军事化措施和非动态性措施之间的关键联系，通过了第2634号决议，被认为与以前的做法有重大不同。本文探讨了这种背离的理由，并评估了这种新方法将在多大程度上支持该地区打击海盗的斗争。

The Role of the UN Security Council in the Fight Against Piracy in the Gulf of Guinea

The UN Security Council continues to play a critical role in ensuring the maintenance of international peace and security. Towards this end, the Council has over the years delineated maritime piracy in the Gulf of Guinea as a threat to international peace and security. Through Resolutions 2018 and 2039, the Council has since 2011 adopted what is largely a militarised approach to dealing with the menace of piracy in the region, similar to its approach in the Gulf of Aden. Even though threat levels are beginning to decline, the Gulf of Guinea is still considered a maritime hotspot. It is within this context that the Council has been moved to reconsider its militarised approaches to include non-kinetic measures. Recognising the critical interface between militarised and non-kinetic measures, the Council has adopted Resolution 2634 in what is considered to be a significant departure from its previous approach. This paper interrogates the rationale for this departure and assesses the extent to which this new approach would support the fight against piracy in the region.

期刊介绍： The Central European Journal of International and Security Studies (CEJISS) was founded by Mitchell Belfer (Editor in Chief), David Erkomaishvili (Deputy Editor in Chief), Nigorakhon Turakhanova (Head of the Academic Centre) and Petr Kucera, in December 2006, as an autonomous wing of the Department of International Relations and European Studies at Metropolitan University Prague. The initial goal was to develop, and project globally, a uniquely Central European take on unfolding international and security issues. This entailed an initial “out-reach” programme to attract scholars from throughout the four Central European states – the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and the Slovak Republic – to participate in the journal as authors and members of the Editorial and (then) Advisory Boards. By the time of the first issue however, it became clear that CEJISS was also capable of acting as a platform for non-Central European scholars to present their academic research to a more regionalised audience. From issue 1:1 in June 2007 until the present, CEJISS has become, quite literally, a two-way street—it helps Central European scholars enter international academia and international scholars enter Central Europe.
