Fuelling the World Economy - Seaports, Coal, and Oil Markets (1st ed. 2023): Daniel Castillo Hidalgo, Cezar Honorato Fuelling the World Economy - Seaports, Coal, and Oil Markets (1st ed. 2023)
Daniel Castillo Hidalgo, Cezar Honorato
R4,574 Discovery Miles 45 740 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This book explores the functioning of coal markets and their influence on ports and maritime economics since the second half of the nineteenth century. Each chapter includes case studies from different parts of the world, explaining the role played by coal in the expansion of the shipping industry. This book also explores regions usually neglected by the mainstream scholarly literature in this field. The relationship between steam engine technology and imperial expansion, how the emergence of global security was driven by maritime technological revolutions, and the connection between global seaports and the spread of global economic and political systems are also discussed. This book aims to highlight the important role seaports and fuel markets played in the evolution of international commercial flows and activities. Fuelling the World Economy will be useful for historians, economists, and geographers interested in maritime and energy issues, as well as researchers interested in transport and technology.

African Seaports and Maritime Economics in Historical Perspective (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2020): Ayodeji Olukoju, Daniel Castillo... African Seaports and Maritime Economics in Historical Perspective (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2020)
Ayodeji Olukoju, Daniel Castillo Hidalgo
R4,230 Discovery Miles 42 300 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book updates African maritime economic history to analyse the influence of seaports and seaborne trade, processes of urbanization and development, and the impact of globalization on port evolution within the different regions of Africa. It succeeds the seminal collection edited by Hoyle & Hilling which was conceived during a phase of sustained economic growth on the African continent, and builds on a similar trend where African economies have experienced processes of economic growth and the relative improvement of welfare conditions. It provides valuable insights on port evolution and the way the maritime sector has impacted the hinterland and the regional economic structures of the affected countries, including the several and varied agents involved in these activities. African Seaports and Maritime Economics in Historical Perspective will be useful for economists, historians, and geographers interested in African and maritime issues, as well as policy makers interested in path-dependence and long-term analysis
