The high seas are rife with lawlessness
Description
Over fifty million people work on our oceans around the world and over 80% of the goods we consume are delivered by vessels navigating them. But when it comes to maintaining law and order on the high seas, is there anyone really in charge? Journalist Ian Urbina has spent over a decade trying to get to the bottom of this and other pressing questions.

Director and Founder Ian Urbina joins The Excerpt to talk about his work trying to bring accountability to the high seas.
