Waters of the South and Southeast Asia have long been some of the most important hotspots for various sea-based organized crimes. As a result of the continuously rising threat of terrorism and its spread all around the world, along with the access of terrorist groups to more efficient and modern military equipments, the danger of terrorism has become more imminent and widespread, taking many forms and finding its way to the seas. Maritime terrorism, especially within regions where other maritime crimes are prevalent, is considered, because of the probable links between the offenders, as one of the most serious threats against peace and security at seas. Considering the organized nature of these crimes, effective suppression of them is only possible through collective and cooprative initiatives. Thus, regional organizations have an undeniably important role in combating maritime terrorism. This article, using the descriptive-analytical method, aims to assess the performance and function of a selected number of regional organizations active within South and Southeast Asia and to examine their achievements and shortcomings, as well as their challenges, in combating maritime terrorism. This article concludes that the activities of these organizations have been essential but insufficient, and the most important challenge ahead is lack of collective strategies at the regional level.

The present paper investigates the natural borders of Iran with an emphasis on the southern border, Pars Sea or the Persian Gulf. In the history of ancient Iran, it functioned as a natural obstructive element against the foreign power's invasion of the plateau of Iran and played an important role in the development of commerce. In order to discover the reasons of the attention of ancient Iranian governments to Pars Sea, it is necessary to study the geographical status of Iran, which, like a bridge, connected several ancient eastern and western countries to each other. At that time, in order to fortify political borders, it was necessary to match them with natural borders. Having access to the southern border of the country was of great importance to Iranian rulers because it would enable them to stabilize eastern and western trade routes and develop international trade in the course of their political and economic competitions with Greece and Rome. In fact, Iran's supervision over Pars Sea was in line with its dominance over sea trade highways and maintaining the power balance in the region. Finally, the importance of the south of the country in the religious thoughts of Iranians, particularly during the Sassanid era, highlighted its supreme station as the abode of gods.

Analyses of the developmental consequences of the current neo-liberal global regime correctly emphasize the ways in which global ideology, legal rules, and economic power structures limit and distort the policy options available to the global south. Yet global neo-liberalism is not likely to be an exception to the rule that any system of domination contains opportunities for challenge and transformation. The author holds that identifying these opportunities is, if not logically prior, still just as critiquing the regime. Seized creatively, such opportunities have the potential not just to improve the circumstances of the less privileged, but to transform the global system itself. The author concludes that promising paths for political action are not only available but beckoning.
