Condition: Wie Neu. Zustandsbeschreibung: Mängelexemplar/near mint. Europe's Maritime Future in a Changing Environment. Proceedings of a Conference organized by the College of Europe, Bruges. Edited by Léonce Bekemans and Sharon Beckwith. The book aims to provide an overall view of the influence of, amongst others, economic, regulatory, and technological factors on the present and future development of ports in a historical context. It achieves this by presenting the varied yet often converging points of view of academics from various backgrounds, maritime experts, and decision-makers from the ports industry. Modern trends, such as containerization, intermodalism, changing product markets and business configurations, which are analyzed in depth, can perhaps be better understood alongside the study of comparable historical developments. Furthermore, the common heritage of Europe's city-ports is proposed as a building block not only for the ports' future but also for further regional integration. The book covers the main issues underlying the policy debate concerning the role of local, regional, national and supranational government in the future of European seaports. 445 Seiten mit einigen Textabb. und 12 Farbtafeln, broschiert (Bruges Conferences. N.S; No. 10/College of Europe/European Interuniversity Press 1996). Statt EUR 49,95. Gewicht: 761 g - Softcover/Taschenbuch.
