Kan kostnad och de grundläggande förmågorna belysa effektiviteten hos taktikanpassningar i Adenviken och Somalia?

Sammanfattning: In this thesis there have been identified that there is a window in research between the two phenomena on (1) how pirates have influenced the global economy and (2) how tactics adaptation between the actors in the Gulf of Aden and around the Somali basin have affected each other. The purpose is to investigate this relationship between the fundamental capabilities and the cost of tactical adaptation. With a theory-developing approach I try to explain how these two phenomena affects our ways of distinguishing maritime tactic effectiveness. The result of the paper is that there is a difference between the tactically effective and the most cost-effective tactical adaptation. The theory of the fundamental capabilities boundaries to cost, illuminates which tactical adaptation to be the most efficient, both cost-effective and tactically efficient and that is passive measures.
