Objective: to research the features of maritime insurance from the viewpoint of fighting piracy at international level and to define the ways toimprove the legal norms in this sphere.Methods: dialectic method of cognition and private scientific research methods (formal-legal, systemic-structural, social-legal, comparative-legal, statistical). Results: basing on the analysis of normative legal acts, regulating the relations in the sphere of maritime insurance as one of the ways to struggle against piracy, the insufficiency of unified insurance norms at international-legal level is revealed; features of modern piracy are identified, as well as the dependence of the insurance cost on the pirates’ activity; the state of legal protection of the ship-owner’s interests in case of pirates’ attacks at international routes; a conclusion is made that the difficulties with the “piracy” notion do not hinder its full-fledged research in international law; the drawbacks of the piracy concept in international law are reflected; the insurance legal norms are studied as well as the drawbacks in insufficient unification and stronger protection of ship-owners in case of ransom payments, especially in RF.Scientific novelty: for the first time in the article the international-legal features of maritime piracy are viewed as one of the measures of struggleagainst piracy.Practical significance: the main provisions and conclusions of the article can be used in practical, scientific and educational activity when dealing with the issues of maritime insurance of piracy risks.
