Port Economics is the study of the economic decisions (and their
consequences) of the users and providers of port services. A port
works as an "engine" for economic development. This book provides a
detailed discussion of port freight service users, such as freight
water and land carriers, that have their ships and vehicles
serviced and their cargoes unloaded by ports, as well as passenger
services such as ferry carriers which are serviced by ferry
passenger ports. This text continues to enhance our understanding
of port economics by exploring the economic theories, supply and
demand curves, and the actual and opportunity costs relating to the
carriers, shippers and passengers who use ports. This new edition
has been updated throughout. This includes: An expanded discussion
of container, break-bulk, dry-bulk, liquid-bulk and neo-bulk ports;
An introduction of port service chains, hinterland transport
chains, maritime transport chains and port multi-service
congestion; A discussion of seaborne trade, dry ports, port
centrality and connectivity and free trade zones. This updated and
comprehensive introduction to port economics will be of benefit to
students and researchers in their study of port economics and
management. It is also of great importance to professionals who
manage and operate ports as well as freight and passenger carriers.
