"The 9/11 attacks and other subsequent events have fostered further dimensions to port, maritime and supply chain security with a raft of compulsory and voluntary measures being put in place at both domestic and global levels. Risk Management in Port Operations is the first insight into the complex world of port and supply chain security. It combines selected peer-reviewed contributions from an international line-up of academic and professional experts in the field. In particular, the book addresses operational and management challenges that port, international logistics and supply chain operators face today in view of the new security regulations and the requirements of increased visibility throughout the supply chain. The book also offers a rare blend of academic and practitioner contributions covering a wide collection of security models and applications ranging from operational and functional subjects to management and policy issues; the first insight into the complex world of port
This important book presents a profound analysis of the current challenges and policies related to the growing concern of maritime transport security, covering all aspects, from terrorism, in general, to piracy, in particular. It is a comprehensive work that offers a multidisciplinary view on the main themes and issues in this relatively unexplored field. It also provides several case studies that cover a large set of countries in many regions in the world. This landmark volume is of a great value to researchers and practitioners interested in understanding maritime transport security policies and their wider impacts at the national, regional and global level.' - Aura Reggiani, University of Bologna, ItalyMaritime Transport Security offers a multidisciplinary framework and a comparative analysis of maritime transport security policies and practices in several key countries. Policy makers and industry stakeholders have established a set of international measures, procedures and benchmarks for maritime security. Yet the way these are designed and implemented often diverge due to technical, market and policy issues. This unique book includes both an interdisciplinary survey of the main concerns related to maritime security and an examination of a number of relevant country case studies. Providing a comprehensive study of the critical themes, issues and frameworks surrounding maritime transport security, this book will be of great interest to practitioners and academics in the field. It will also be of great value to institutions that provide courses or programs in maritime management and related issues. Contributors: K. Bichou, M. Brooks, S.B. Burthoo-Barah, A.D. Coutroubis, G.
