Pirate organizations predated any modern democratic government, having originated during the Golden Age of Piracy, from the 1650s to the 1730s. As an outgrowth of a diverse society that sought to maximize efficiency, Pirates formed relatively liberal, egalitarian orders based on elected officials and mutual trust.
Sailors often turned to piracy after long, abusive careers as either naval officers or ordinary seamen. In the eighteenth century, sailors were commonly beaten, overworked, and underpaid, and were often starved or diseased. Aboard ships sponsored by merchant companies, there was often a captain in place, hired by the original absentee owner. He was to ensure that the job was completed and was therefore granted absolute power, leading to a sort of dictatorship aboard ships. By centralizing power in the hands of the captain, ship owners could be sure they were minimizing pirate opportunism. Captains with unlimited and unchecked power were granted the right to punish in especially harsh manners, often leading to dissatisfaction and mutiny.
• The pirates created an order that allowed them to vote for their captains.
• The crew retained the right to depose their leader if they so chose.
• There was a system of checks and balances.
• They had a health care system.
• Booty was distributed fairly according to skill and duty.
As we observed above, tt seems that the Atlantic pirate’s onboard culture and orders were different from the merchant ships’ ones at that time, as well as contemporary English social orders. In this regard, it can be said that these culture and orders were ‘alternative’ sufficiently. However, in my opinion, it is skeptical that they were ‘revolutionary’ in way that they were aware of a distinct target and oriented for the specific social orders.
