Publication 2010.
Summary/Abstract Theories of international law compliance have blossomed in recent years and many have been subjected to rigorous testing. In this exercise, we argue that theories based on managerial models are particularly promising in explaining why certain states comply more readily with international rules governing the safety of international shipping. Specifically, we test a wide range of variables drawn from interest-driven theories, as well as society-driven theories of compliance, and compare their explanatory power to governance-driven theories to explain anti-piracy policies and safety aboard ship. While many governance-driven variables correlate with both outcomes, they explain ship safety policies particularly well.
