Regina M. Paulose's "Blue Crimes and International Criminal Law" provides a momentous contribution to the evolving field of environmental criminology, specifically focusing on the legal lacunae and enforcement challenges surrounding oceanic exploitation. By examining the complex interplay of international law, criminal justice, and environmental degradation, Paulose offers a timely and critical analysis of the need for a more robust legal framework to protect our oceans in the 21st century. This work is essential reading for legal scholars, policymakers, and anyone concerned with the future of marine ecosystems.
