Lecturer The University of Western Australia AustraliaDr. Jade Lindley, a criminologist, is a Lecturer at the UWA Law School. Her research interests include transnational organized crimes, in particular maritime piracy and illegal fishing, regulation, and international law and she has published across these topics.

Jade was awarded her PhD from the Australian National University, with a period as a visiting scholar at the University of Cambridge Institute of Criminology. Her thesis title, ‘Somali Piracy, 2002-2011: The convergence of Routine Activity Theory and Regulatory Pluralism’ was reworked into the Routledge publication Somali Piracy: A Criminal Perspective released in December 2015.
