为了打击海盗行为,16世纪以后,西方各国逐渐形成了关于海盗罪的国际习惯法体系。进入20世纪,国际社会开始致力于将海盗习惯法的法典化,《尼翁协定》及《尼翁补充协定》是前期的主要成果。二战结束后,国际社会制定了《日内瓦公海公约》和《联合国海洋法公约》,对海盗罪的定义、构成要件及执法权限等作出了明确规定。 In order to combat piracy, after the 16th century, Western countries gradually formed a system of customary international law on piracy. In the 20th century, the international community began to devote itself to codifying the customary law of pirates. The Nyon Agreement and the Nyon Supplementary Agreement are the main achievements of the previous period. After World War II, the international community formulated the Geneva Convention on the High Seas and the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, and made clear the definition of piracy, elements of constitution and law enforcement authority.
