The central concerns of mobilities research - exploring the broader
context and human aspects of movement - are fundamental to an
understanding of the maritime freight transport sector. Challenges
to the environment, attempts at more sustainable practices, changes
in the geoeconomic system, political power, labour, economic
development and governance issues are all among the topics covered
in this book. The aim of this volume is to address issues of
maritime transport not only in the simple context of movement but
within the mobilities paradigm. The goal is to examine negative
system effects caused by blockages and inefficiencies, examine
delays and wastage of resources, identify negative externalities,
explore power relations and identify the winners and losers in the
globalised trade system with a particular focus on the maritime
network. Maritime Mobilities therefore aims to build a bridge
between "traditional" maritime academic approaches and the
mobilities paradigm. This volume is of great importance to those
who study industrial economics, shipping industries and transport
geography.
